Darrell Scott's Poem

This is a poem written by Darrell Scott
His daughter was Rachel Joy Scott
she was a student at Columbine High School
 She was killed when two fellow students
went on a shooting rampage!
Darrell was invited to address... the
 House Judiciary Committee's
subcommittee on gun violence.
He read this poem at that meeting.
 
 
Your laws ignore our deepest needs,
 Your words are empty air.
You've stripped away our heritage,
You've outlawed simple prayer.
Now gunshots fill our classrooms,
And precious children die.
You seek for answers everywhere,
And ask the question "Why?"
You regulate restrictive laws,
Through legislative creed.
And yet you fail to understand,
That God is what we need!
