An Open Letter to the NRA

 

Dear Governing Body of the NRA

Find out what's happening in Fairfieldwith free, real-time updates from Patch.

I ask you to each attend the funerals of every victim of the tragedy in Newtown, CT. At each funeral, please be aware that you have each personally had influence on the ability for Adam Lanza to carry 3 automatic weapons with rapid-fire clips into an elementary school. I also ask you to think about sitting in the same place as each of the parents of a child who has senselessly died.

Imagine that you are sitting watching as your child is being put in the ground; your 6 or 7 year old who has died for no other reason than being at school and in the line of fire.

For each of you, what happens in your heart as your think of the carnage? What happens to your compassion, your humanity? How can you be part of much needed change? Our society is sickened and the world is looking on with scorn.

Think and attend, go to each funeral. See the human side of what is a going on with your support.

 

Sincerely,

Trevor Crow, LMFT
