+1 and parents need to step up and parent and monitor their kids. The last shooting this kid had serious mental health issues. He was living with a friend's family who allowed him to keep a gun in the house and didn't monitor it or him.
If there was a God, in my mind, these things wouldn't be happening.
Whose God do you bring into the classroom?
If these kids are taught God at home and church, which many of them are, then if it wasn't effective, the only reason to bring it to the classroom is for your personal gain.
So when my 16yrold was smoking pot in the basement, cutting herself, and doing God’s know what else, I called the police. They told me they couldn’t help me with her disobedience, they couldn’t help me have her go to rehab, all they could do was bring her back home to terrorise me and the younger kids. This kid was 19, a legal adult. What were his parents supposed to do ?
His parents died.
He was living with friends. He got expelled. He was studying for his GED. He was reported to the FBI.
Here is the rub: because taking away guns from private citizens is illegal, this happened. Without his AR-15, he couldn't have killed. Maybe he could have met someone to help him lead a better life. A second chance at happiness.
But I assure you, it's not a lack of God. Lot's of people with God use God to justify death. The Crusades, WWI, WWII (on Hitler's side, so he said), etc....
It's not God that needs to be placed in our classrooms. And let's be clear, if God was so great, he obviously wants this cluster-EFF of mass killings to happen, as he is all knowing and powerful. You have to have faith in that.
If you don't, if you think for one moment that no just god would allow this to happen-- let's be clear: there is no god and these mass killings are example of this.
