For all those who've died from guns, one way or the other--John Lennon's Imagine
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VOgFZfRVaww
On Saturday, Sir Paul McCartney came to DC, to join the March for Our Lives.
He said, "I'm here because I lost a close friend to gun violence, not far from here," referring to John Lennon being shot in front of his building, The Dakota.
It's ironic that someone who wrote something like Imagine, should have been killed by a stranger with a gun.
