is for people not to be so quick to come and censor us when we talk about things like this. Don't be so quick to censor us when we talk about gun violence and I say that because once again I have been impacted by gun violence as a family member of mine was killed two days ago. I had friends who were gun supporters who used to jump down my grill telling me to be quiet.

So since i can't seem to voice my opinion on issues that matter to me, I'm voicing them through some crime novels I'm writing.
