Helen Ramirez: | What kind of woman are you? How can you leave him like this? Does the sound of guns frighten you that much? |
|
Amy: | No, Mrs. Ramirez. I've heard guns. My father and my brother were killed by guns. They were on the right side but that didn't help them any when the shooting started. My brother was nineteen. I watched him die. That's when I became a Quaker. I don't care who's right or who's wrong! There's got to be some better way for people to live! Will knows how I feel about it. |
