#AtoZChallenge Desperate Housewives

Desperate Housewives _ 2004–2012

Bree and Lynette argue over guns in schools. Is the right to carry more important than the safety of children? Is there a way to get gun owners to be more responsible? 

Porter and Preston are accused of stealing Bree's handgun. Edie makes a scene, worrying her gun might be stolen next. Gabby suspects Carlos, as his criminal record prevents him from buying one. At the end of the episode, Paul is seen burying the gun at Mary Alice's grave.

"After all, my husband knows that death is hardest on those left behind."

 

To Bad We Won't Be Voting On This

What if America's 2016 election had some of these items tossed in?

1- People who want to start a war,  especially because they are feeling intolerant,  are required to fight in it. Can't fight? Must volunteer some other way. Can't do that? Donate several thousand dollars or be jailed for intolerance.

2- Pro life protesters would be required to adopt one child for every protest they take part in. No swapping kids- you get what you get. Can't afford the kid? Should have thought of that before spreading your legs to walk to that protest. The kid tries to kill you,  or is related to someone who has harmed you? Good. Social services will stop by to make sure you're parenting well.

3- We are going to need more space in prison thanks to the first two. So weed will now be legal but restricted like alcohol. You only go to jail if your involvement with it harms another. Also,  there will be a tax on weed. (Tax evasion is still a crime.)

4- Gun owners are required to donate 10 hours a year to teaching gun safety- 5 hours if taught to more than 20 children. Must include reasons NOT to shoot.

Just a start. Not that these would be on the ballot. Easier to just blame whoever wins than take any responsibility.
