Just Another Day In the USA..,.

 


In 2016 His Holiness the Dalai Lama had the following to say in San Francisco following mass shootings in San Bernardino and Orlando. It is now 2020 and senseless mass shootings have only increased in the USA. Is this the result of ignorance, stupidity, or both.

Given most recent events it's looking very much lie both.

SACRAMENTO — In front of state lawmakers weighing a slate of gun-control measures, the Dalai Lama said Monday that ending violence requires inner disarmament and an education system that focuses on teaching moral values, compassion and what it means to be a global citizen.

In a speech to lawmakers in the state Capitol, the Tibetan spiritual leader called a sense of community “the basis of our own happy future.”

His comments came in the wake of the mass shooting in Orlando and the deadly attack in San Bernardino in December, which led California lawmakers to introduce more than a dozen gun-control bills.

“Real gun control must come from here,” the Dalai Lama said, pointing at his heart.

Of course His Holiness the Dalai Lama is right. But apparently very many Americans believe in the terrorist NRA and corrupt politicians more than they believe the truth.
