Bob and Becky et all,
This is a list about tomatoes and yes SOME OT, but I must say how painful
this discussion has been for me. I have read and remained quiet while
various members rant on and on about their freedoms to bear arms.
However--------- I consider gardening I.E. Tomatoes and Chiles a bit of
therapy for my husband and I. You see our son was experiencing depression
after the breakup up w/his girlfriend of 4 1/2 years, went to feed his
friends cats and searched for the antique gun collection his friend had. Our
son used an Antique Russian riffle to commit suicide. If this gun had been
locked up he would still be here. So please don't talk of your freedoms and
rights, talk of your responsibilities if you choose to own a gun. But more
importantly this IS a list for tomatoes!!!!!!!
I respect our freedoms in this grand county, but let's stay on topic. You
want to know about guns, the 31,000 people who commit suicide a year and the
irresponsible action of those who choose to "bear ARMS FINE, BUT THIS IS A
TOMATO LIST.
I AM HERE BECAUSE I LEARNED MUCH FROM MY SON WHO LOVED TO GARDEN AND I AM
TRYING TO LEARN MORE.
I am not alone as I know one here lost her husband, another a son, another
almost lost a son, please get back on topic.
