Arizona: God is my Shield from the Crossfire

On Saturday, a gunman killed six people and wounded others including Arizona Congresswoman Gabby Giffords, who was gravely injured. The new Congress has been swift to act, finding ways to improve security around the Capitol and Congressional offices.

Fortunately for them, the Supreme Court has rendered a decision that has made it next to impossible for them to take action that would protect the rest of us, including those of us like the citizens who actually died. Fortunately for them, they have the resources to direct toward the fortification of their venue and the political will to arm the rest of the population and watch them get caught in the crossfire trying to “protect” themselves.

I will pray through my anger, hoping the ire will not infect the plea. I will pray, but it seems that God has already hardened Pharaoh's heart. Hopefully, mine is not so hard.
