The Anti-Gun dream
I saw three people I knew I think, two women and a man. They were sitting in a semi circle all aiming their guns at something and there was an enemy over towards the left of me right of them They were smiling as though it was a good thing to do and they were happy.
They were definitely going to use the guns.
I decided that if I was anti gun then I must stop them. So I just walked slowly forward towards the woman to my right. The others all watched there was someone behind me whom I knew. A man. He was thinking that what I was doing was brave. I was thinking then why don’t you do it. I stared at the women in the eyes. I talked all the time I was slowly walking forward.
‘What are you doing? Are you mad? Do you think this will solve anything? It will just make things worse.’
She stared at me in disbelief. I took the gun from her. It looked like no gun I had ever seen before. I stupidly thought that it looked modern like a modern ornament or something.
I tuned towards the someone who was the enemy who was exiting a nearby barn. I walked towards him and I was going to try to take the gun from him. All the time I was talking. This is no good this is not the way to solve our problems. The first woman came after me. I turned on her . I shouted, “Keep back or I’ll shoot.2 I aimed at her feet but she kept coming. I shout again. But she kept coming.
I pulled the trigger and nothing happened. I pulled it three times. I realised that the gun was not loaded.
Suddenly a crowd of people appeared at the bus stop across the road. There was a woman in the middle of the crowd with her hand in her pocket as though holding a gun.
She was American.
Of course you need guns. Everybody in America has a gun. I looked at her in amazement.
“oh yes, “ I said, “And look at your country. Just tell me which particular problems carrying guns has solved”.
