And while one hears of a new massacre at a school in the southern United States, and listens to the governor of Texas To reply that it's a good thing the trade in automatic weapons used for such a calamity is permitted without any impediment, Because that's how they were able to take down the protagonist of the murders, just a few hours after the event, the singer of the classic song American Pie, Don McLean, He canceled his appearance at the upcoming National Rifle Association convention in Houston, arguing that it would be "disrespectful" to play after a shooting at a primary school in the small town of Uvalde that left 19 children and two teachers dead.
The truth is, it sounds plausible that the composer of one of the most beautiful ballads that rock has ever produced, may have let misfortune touch his heart and decided to suspend his show in front of such satraps. It seems perfectly obvious that Don McLean is the man who made such a decision, which will surely be repudiated by more than one potential killer who thinks it's fun to go through life carrying his collection of AR-15 semi-automatic machine guns, driving around the local roads, believing he has the blessings of heaven to scare anyone who crosses his path and feel protected by the law of man and God. Thankfully McLean must have remembered the opening lines of his hit song:
A long, long time ago
I can still remember how that music used to make me smile.
And I knew that if I had my chance
That could make those people dance
And perhaps they would be happy for a while
But February made me tremble
With each piece of paper I would hand over
Bad news at the door
I couldn't take another step
I can't remember if I cried
When I read about his widowed girlfriend
But something touched me deep down
The day the music died
In short, peace to the graves of the children who fell victim to the stupidities and cruelties of those who spill blood on the ground., feeling proud of the stains of death they leave in their wake.
