Gun owners are “harping” in what way? What do you mean by that? If you mean by discussing guns? I’d say both gun owners and those who don’t want firearms, discuss guns with similar energy. Just differing viewpoints. This art implies guns seem to be the root cause of the issue. Robbing children of their innocence. I say the root issue is people. The mental health of America. Good people doing the right things with guns is great for America. Bad people doing hurtful things with guns is bad for America. Blaming guns doesn’t solve the problem.

Well said. So this art piece is useless. It’s about the gun. Guns aren’t the issue. People are.

Well takes more than just good people with guns. Takes action. Leadership. Courage. That which is lacking.

Well to be fair. School shootings occur (in part) because they are gun free zones. The people that want to make impact choose schools because they know they are poorly defended, and full of innocence. The killers know they will get the public attention with kids and they know hardly anyone if at all will be there to stop their plans.
I feel for kids period because they end up being the target of issues beyond them. Not even speaking to the point of gun rights etc.

I lived on Maui for 17 years. I miss it too. I only got to go to Molokai once for a paddle comp. Didn’t get to fully explore

I heard they don’t as well, but I do believe you can still hike it on foot.

Snow with the earthy color tones is pretty nice.
