Each day Paul read the paper
there were one to seven stories
about people being shot.
The reporting stated some cause
like shoes, bicycle, or cash
and other times night club arguments.
Paul decided if everyone carried guns
there would be a couple
incredibly bloody weeks
and either the problem people would be dead
or everyone would agree
that no guns is a better way to live.
Paul realized he did not really want to put
his idea to a real life test
except as a reality TV show.
