To the Editor:

Were coming out from the COVID-19 pandemic. You may choose to continue to wear a mask or not. Its up to you. You can decide your level of risk, but as you come out and decide to go to a movie, a concert or sports event, the mall, grocery store and especially when you pack the kids off to school, wear your battle armor! The helmet, bulletproof vest, face shield and a bullet shield will also be useful because we are no longer the U.S.A.; we are the NRA No Rights for Americans.

Guns and money now have all the rights in our country. Guns have the right to exist anywhere at anytime to shoot off their mouths and spread bloodshed all over this land. Money has the right to collect itself in the pockets of the soulless greedy without any limit.

Weapons of mass destruction make the most money in sales so we can never put safety measures in place to protect the innocent. That might limit their sales and put less into the pockets of the gun manufacturers who then put it into the greedy, soulless organization that gives it to the corrupt politicians, who have security paid for by our government to protect them from the roulette wheel of life in this country that ends in death when your number comes up.

Last week it was 21 innocent, beautiful Americans who won this horrific game of chance we all live every day. It was a massacre in a school in Texas where they love and protect guns a hundred times more than they protect Americans. Nineteen of them were our children. None of these victims had any rights to live a life free of the threat of sudden death out of nowhere.

My only comfort when I talk to my traumatized children and grandchildren is that we live in New Jersey, where weapons of war are banned. Where our governor is fighting to put more safety measures in place to give my family some hope for our right to life. We are not a whole country, however, and those weapons of war can cross over into our state from the less free states that offer no safety.

Im not a gambler. I hate the stock market. I go to the casinos in Atlantic City just for the shows, but I gamble every day when I walk out my door to go anywhere in this country. We have no freedom in this country since gun lovers and sellers decided guns and the profits they make need freedom above all of us. Never mind the total and shameful incompetence of the political leaders of Texas.

I want my right to life. It has been stolen and replaced by the NRA (No Rights for Americans).
