Or that having a gun at the time of

Being upset is a temporary emotion that

The framers of the Constitution created a political system based on limited government. The main point of this separation of powers was to limit any one branch from exercising the main functions of another; this starts in the division of government responsibilities into distinct branches.

They create chaos by dividing our country into sides rather than uniting us as one. I regret to admit the separation of this nation is already occurring right before our eyes.
