Thursday's parting shot

Your remarks and lively debates are welcome, whether supportive or critical of the views herein. Your articulate, well-informed remarks that are relevant to an article are welcome.
However, commentary that is intended to "flame" or attack, that contains violence, racist comments and potential libel will not be published. Facts are helpful.
If you'd like to make personal attacks and libelous claims against people and businesses, then you may do so on your own social media accounts. Also, comments predicting when a new business will close ("I give it six weeks") will not be approved.
And since John Lennon was killed, over a million Americans have been killed by a gun, yet we are still distracted by random individual cases of violence and crime rather than focusing on the big picture that has killed more Americans than any of the wars we have fought in. The United States has invaded or fought in 84 of the 193 countries recognized by the United Nations and has been militarily involved with 191 of 193 – a staggering 98 percent. Yet it is domestic violence that has killed more Americans than any of these wars. Imagine how many more millions of people have been affected by the killing of over a million people. This is a genocide.
