Sunday

has a connection with Senator Robert Kennedy being murdered, around this time in 1968. Plus it is a heck of a song, if not actually about a firearm.

When my son asked 100 year old Ralph what he would say to people today, he said, "Plant gardens, and do everything you can to survive the tough times coming our way."
