Joyce Pursley – a personal view

Fearful people are trying to make sure the rest of us are just as afraid of the world and each other as they are.

Fear is what drives the firearm industry in this country.

Gun manufacturers use these fears and they are brilliant manipulators of people who are instinctually fearful.

But no numbers of guns apparently can ever calm their fears.

I wonder if ever someday we will discover, in the secret archives of the gun manufacturers, the physiological and marketing research such as we know the Big Tobacco Companies undertook, in order to get people addicted to cigarettes and inspire brand loyalty?

They are just trying to move their product, a product desired by the fearful that can only further inflame those fears.
