Its a spiritual problem. This is what the country wants. It has rejected God.

Trump is wrong on this one, what you say is closed to the truth.

There are two distinct type of mass shootings that we’ve recently seen. One is the Adam Lanza type where there truly is mental illness involved and the shooter is on or coming down from being on psychotropic drugs.

There’s another type where someone is provoked and incited into armed revenge based on a reinforced perception of being oppressed.

THATS what happened here. This Bryce/Vested guy wasn’t really “mentally ill” but rather had been nurtured with a steady diet of hateful propaganda that fed his growing rage to the point where he popped.

I’ve been amused in the last 24 hours at seeing how the Liberal Press and Progressives in general have been contorting themselves into pretzels avoiding that particular elephant in the room to blame it all on a gun. When not too long ago they blamed a very similar mass shooting on cultural social factors (white supremecy, revolt against “white privilege”) and symbolism (the Confederate flag).

Trump should really recognize and call this shooting out for what it actuall is.

I agree with you. But I was thinking a lot about this yesterday. I feel like maybe things are so much worse because the country has rejected hell.

I mean, when I was a kid, my mom taught me the ten commandments. When she got to "Thou shalt not kill", she said that that is one that you'd go straight to hell for. Then leading into a discussion of what hell was like. We talked about mortal sin and asking for God's forgiveness so we don't spend eternity in hell. It was simplistic talk for a little kid, but effective.

All of my friends knew about hell. We weren't perfect and got into trouble, but we all knew about hell. We all feared it in our own way. I remember watching the movie "Ghost" as a teen and seeing the demons come for the bad guys. A great scene that gave me nightmares.

Culture today either ignores hell all together or reduces it to a simple "state of mind" argument. It is rarer to find people that think of it as a real place. I find myself questioning it often, my imperfect faith goes through ebbs and flows. But I've got that little bitty piece that is ingrained in my conscience that never completely rules out the prospect of an eternity in hell.

It is my little theory that kids are growing up now with absolutely no fear of hell. Even those that might begin their lives being faithful to God, slip up down the road without the fear of hell to push them back in the right direction.

Hypothetically, if I were a scientist and could scientifically prove the basic existence of either God or hell, I wonder which I would choose.

Particularly the black church with their support of abortion/homosexuality.

They teach their children not to have respect for life every time they vote democrat, they crapped on their rich Christian heritage.

Speaking only of the ALL Black Church and yes this is undeniable.

True. And until someone gets up and says it, the rats will control the dialogue. Leftwing ideology does not value human life, except for murderers.

On January 20, 2009 our once great country began a downward spiral into a country where the prison inmates, thugs, druggies, criminals, illegals, gays, and baby killers run the country....led by the biggest America Hater of all time, POTUS, Barack Hussein Obama. We have gun laws up the you know what....most of them are ignored by Obama, his Black Racist Obamabots and his vermin Democrat Party!!!

Every single passing day we have another horrible shooting and murder. Chicago, New York, Baltimore, Los Angeles, Detroit, etc are the “Murder Malls” and slaughter arcades of the Obama nation!!! Donald Trump, love, like or hate him is absolutely right....new guns laws will only serve to further the goals of Obama and his criminal, illegal elements of killer humanity!!!

60,000,000+ innocent unborn children's lives were brutally terminated at the hands of PP.

The point is, this country no longer values human life. Whether at the beginning while in the womb and all the way through to the end where our elderly are shuffled off to live in some form of government group home(for lack of a better term.)

Indeed this country has a spiritual problem due to rejecting God's law.

“Its a spiritual problem.”

Although I agree with you that spirituality is being suppressed in society, there are practical issues in this case regarding how to recognize and deal with someone who has a serious mental health problem.

I heard one of the anchorwomen from that station last night saying that this guy had to be escorted out of the building by the police when he was fired, and the police warned them about him. They obviously were aware that this guy could do something dangerous. If you feel strongly enough that someone is potentially dangerous, there has to be a way in our system to deal with this before there is a disaster.

Indeed, a spiritual problem. We have "rejected God."
"But I feel that the greatest destroyer of peace today is abortion, because it is a war against the child - a direct killing of the innocent child - murder by the mother herself. And if we accept that a mother can kill even her own child, how can we tell other people not to kill one another?" -Blessed Mother Teresa
And, for those interested, Trump believes the babies conceived through rape and incest can be eliminated through abortion, if their mother selects to do so.

If one would like a 100% pro-lifer at the helm, there are several running, and if one doesn't really care, why not?

Yep, same as what happened the ancient Roman’s.
