Nothing could be more appropriate than this. July 12, 2014 1:49 pm bowser

Forget fireworks – celebrate America’s independence by shooting people.  That’s freedom!

http://www.nbcchicago.com/news/local/20-Shot-Overnight-in-Chicago-266871011.html

“Following a particularly violent Fourth of July weekend, violence in Chicago continued Saturday with 21 people shot overnight, including three people wounded outside a Northwest Side pizza restaurant.”

Now is not the time to discuss gun control.  Too emotional.  We’ll have to wait until things calm down.
