 I am in a very happy relationship with my wife and would never do anything that resembles this image in reality! I also am in no way against the right to bear arms. I do however think that there is way to much needless violence against those that we say that we love simply because they are the easiest to strike out against!

If you or someone you love is in a relationship that may be dangerous, please call the Council Against Domestic Assault 1-800-799-7233 so that this doesn't have to happen.

Is this an attempt to say hockey is violent? otherwise, it is a bit too obvious.

I'm sorry for the loss. I think that a more dramatic view of the gun and just part of the torn image may have made a stronger impact to the viewers. Sometimes in photography less is more. 5 -danny

Scary. Not exactly subtle, but then neither are guns. Wish you could have composed the meaning into the picture rather than having to right the note.

Yep, perfect liberal propaganda... Blame the gun instead of the person using the gun.

Wow! The hardest hitting one I've yet seem (maybe 80% through them). Well done.

from the sound of the note it looks like a human did it, not a gun

Good interpretation, not sure where my eye is supposed to go. Re-arranging the items may have increased the effect of the shot.
