In the Associated Press story in the Aug. 6 Herald (“Trump vows action after shootings but gives few details”) our presidential promoter of hatred is quoted as saying, “Hatred pulls the trigger, not the gun.” By such logic should our country forget about seeking to curb so-called rogue countries such as Iran and North Korea from investments in nuclear weapons?

We would apparently do better to simply flood their lands with anti-hate pamphlets. (And maybe remove our own nuclear triggers from the reach of our own itchy trigger fingers.)
