When I was a teenager (14 yo) 1960 I took my Winchester 22LR bolt action rifle to school Tuesdays and Thursdays. Tuesdays we had gun safety and Thursdays we had marksmanship. We had to carry our guns to classes, because they didn’t want them stored in our lockers in case of theft. And nobody ever got hurt.

Some one may want to turn this into a thread.

Imho, if you let G-d back in school things will change for the better. Quickly.

Take the medical licenses of theose who certify a nut case to be safe and not a threat. Simple fix: stop letting them out to kill good people.

Have you noticed how they interview these murderers girlfriends after these incidents?

That’s right.

No girlfriends.

There is no moral compass.

That is the entirely crux of the matter.

John Adams Quotes

Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.

Amen. and amen.

Actually it is worse than that. Shooter’s dad had a 40 year drug habit and is now an “energy healer”.

The common denominator in virtually all of these shootings is SSRI anti depressants which are known to produce suicide and homacidal thoughts.

Many people find it ironic that the El Paso shooter’s father is a mental-health therapist.

My kid would never do anything like that,ever hear those words?.

Satan fears to tread when God is near.
Kick God out of the school and Satan strolls right in.

Another factor, IMO, is the restrictions feminist society has put on boys who expect to grow in to men. Boys don’t respond to teaching the same way girls do, but because of feminist educators making the rules to solely favor girls, they are harming boys. They aren’t allowed to play games that develop leadership and other values normal men have developed over time. Their natural instincts suppressed, often with drugs, what are these kids to do but develop other avenues to release their energy? Bring back faggot-free scouting, boy’s clubs, let them run and play and develop in a normal way and maybe they’ll turn out to be normal guys and not basement dwelling manifesto writing murdering weirdos.

Whoa ...nail on the head!! Add that to the broken families and we’ve got some warped kids and even older adults now who have come of age through all the last 40-50 years of this nonsense.

Since the US government declared war on God in 1962, Satan has filled the void with riots, assassinations, mass murder, abortions, drug epidemics, broken families, endless crime, pornography, and all the rest. If we want to blame someone, blame ourselves.

My youngest 32 is now attending college, he dropped out at 20 years old, and is going back to learn Psychiatry. He was raised a Christian, taught Gods word as few others have been taught and now he wants to be a Psychiatrist!

He went to one and within a few sessions, he called us to say we were the worst and he did not want to talk to us till he figured things out, how to undo all the harm we did to him, according to his Psychiatrist. His shrink recommended reading Niche.

That was 2 years and 2 months ago, no Thanksgiving, no Christmas or calls to us or his older brother who has children. I sent him this article.
