I’d like to take this opportunity to hijack this thread and talk about the real issue here.
The guy was a gamer. And clearly an unstable personality prone to violence. A definite inability to control his emotions. How was this 24 year old raised?
I can speculate there may not have been a father present. No father figure. Nobody to toughen him up in his teen and pre-teen years. Discipline probably lax. He may have been cuddled by whatever parent sit in remained while he was allowed to run roughshod over her. Chances are some kind of anti-depressant played some role.
And so on. We’ve seen it before.
So the problem is not guns. Guns are a tool. Murder is a symptom. The real problem here is that the kid was not raised properly. And nobody can blame this tragedy on conservative values like the much maligned “family values” of the 80s and 90s (remember that?). Had he been raised right he would have been totally trustworthy with a gun and nobody would be posting on this tragedy because it wouldn’t have happened.
So how did we get here?
Liberal planks in the liberal platform:
“Our job as educators is to make children as different as possible from their parents.” —Progressive John Dewey
65% of all divorces are filed by women. When both are college educated the number jumps to 90%.
Women’s Liberation has “freed” women from men. Men are no longer “needed” in women's lives. Thank you Jane Fonda, Jane Elliott, Hillary Clinton, Margaret Sanger etc.
So this is the society we’ve made for ourselves: A society where you can “have it all”—a career and a family (a lie) and sexual liberation that absolves males from any responsibility for raising their spawn since, after all, “it’s a woman’s choice” right?
The real problem, ladies and gentlemen, is not guns. Banning guns will not do a damn thing to help the core problem. The real problem, and I think you know this, is the breakdown of the family.
Fix your family folks!
