nicknotes comments on Apr 27, 2020:

When I was about 7 years old my uncle gave me a toy revolver. It was very realistic looking. My mother took me to church and I brought the gun with me....it was nested in the waistband of my pants. Of course I wasn't paying attention and there was a time when everyone was supposed to kneel. My mother grabbed my wrist and yanked me forward to the kneeling bench....the abrupt yanking made the gun slip out onto the floor.....the gun was metal and it made a lot of noise as it fell....everyone nearby looked to see what was happening. My mother grabbed the gun and put it in her purse. Many times I asked her to return the gun but I never saw it again. When I was 12 my mother died of Cancer. On her deathbed I asked where she had hidden my gun. She told me to shut up. When my father was at work I searched all her belongings....I never found the gun.
