We have been on a decline of (for lack of a better word) morals and sound judgment for quite a while. I think now we are seeing the effects of that decline. What happened to responsibility and accountability and moral fiber? Why are these kids growing up without the ability to cope with difficult situations in life? Why is it so simple for people to flip-out one day and do unthinkable things to innocent people? Some people are just wired wrong, but I think these people are conditioned by society wrong.
As disturbing as these events have been, to me the most disturbing thing of all is the fact that we don't know who to blame and how to do something about it so it doesn't happen again.
Very sad

I disagree; I know who to blame: The shooter; And I know how to keep it from happening again; We need to understand that the world has changed and that these "gun free zones" are magnets for this kind of madness. We need to give our teachers firearms training and stop tying the hands of law abiding citizens with stupid laws, laws that, much like the gun free zones, only make us all more vulnerable.
And yes, indeed we have created some screwed up kids... But liberalism has destroyed the schools; You cant spank your kids anymore, the "education" where our kids cant even read their diplomas, the movies we watch, the violent video games, the bias of the liberal media and Hollywood... and indeed the absent parents ( if they are lucky enough to have two of them ) that are too busy making a living to pay the ever increasing cost a supporting an ever increasing federal government monster that CREATES many of these problems in the first place...
But look on the bright side: America is no longer a "racist nation" because we have elected obama to be our president not just once, but TWICE!!! And we will soon all have "free" healthcare!!!! So how bad can it really be???
