THE GUNFIGHTS AT KO CORRAL

It has returned to the wild west out here
Recently the peace lovers voted in gun registration
It is far too late!
Those with active brains wonder about closing the borders
That too seems far too late!
The President wants to give amnesty---he aint too great
instead take away their stolen weapons and ship them home
Six blocks from my home less than an hour ago
Not making this up it is happening as I write
A man was shot to death in a fight
The corner is blocked with cars and news reporters
12'23 still looking for shooter
I am watching my doors and windows and strangers
It has become a daily happening
No, I do not live in the ghetto
They all have guns and most don't speak English
This is an active old folke's home neighborhood
Not so long ago not even a fistfight
All these thugs have guns
Most of them with brains blown out on drugs
Coming from other countries through or loose borders
This city has turned violent overnight
And trust me most of these dummer that dumbos don't vote
They ain't from these parts stranger!
Pot growers are suing because Bellevue won't allow them office space
Is this country going nutts or What?
Wake up America if it is not already too late!
