Yesterday there was a school shooting in Florida. The person doing the shooting was known by the students as a person who was the type to do such a thing and yet no one did any intervention to stop this individual who claimed 17 lives with his horrendous act of violence. Would this individual have even attempted this act if he had known there were teachers in the school who concealed and carried and were allowed to have their guns in the school, to protect the students? I think not because most shooters who do these things are cowards and will target those who cannot defend themselves. If you look at any criminal, they target those who have no control over the situation, such as pedophiles using children, rapists attacking women who are drunk, terrorists bombing people at celebrations, government officials selling uranium to other countries and attempting to throw land owners in prison for standing their ground (You can even throw in the illegal aliens who cross the border, that is a weak spot in the defense of our country.). These are soft targets because the criminals all know their victims weaknesses and because the laws protect the criminal over the victim.
Gun control laws prevent law abiding citizens from protecting themselves but the criminals will get the weapons anyway, illegally. Illegal aliens will find a way to tunnel in or ride across the border in barrels. Pedophiles will wait years and groom their victims, government officials will hid their illegal activities and set up a deep state, all this to victimize those who cannot defend themselves, it isn’t a Second Amendment thing it is a morality issue, we have throw away morals, such as the value of life, tough love and rule of law.
When I was growing up, I had my butt swatted, stood in a corner and was grounded for infractions at home. At the time, I felt I was mistreated but as I grew up, I realized the value of the punishment built in me a respect for rules and laws. I didn’t just stand in a corner, I stood in the corner on tip toes with my nose on a pencil mark that Mom put in the corner. If I didn’t have that lead mark on my nose after five minutes, I spend another five in the corner hoping the pencil lead was on my nose after the next five. I learned to follow rules, I learned respect and I had discipline. Today, I am a defender of laws and have morals and value for life and respect for others.
Kids today have video games that glorify and give you points for killing your video enemy. The movies such as the Hunger Games that glorify killing each other off, all for the glory. Kids have no understanding of pretend and reality. I grew up with Bugs Bunny, Elmer Fudd, The Road Runner and the Coyote. As a child, I knew they were pretend and never thought of attempting one of the silly antics from the cartoons. No, I wanted to be Laura Ingalls from Little House on the Prairie or Mary, from the Waltons. These were individuals with morals and true character that we could look up to with respect.
The whole society glorifies trash women, like the Kardashian’s who dress like whores and whore themselves out to television ratings. Society mocks and are offended by the Robertson Family of Duck Dynasty for their morals and beliefs. Christianity and the Judeo Christian beliefs this country was founded on are treated as barbaric and yet people glorify Sharia law and its genital mutilation of little girls. The whole of society has accepted evil as good and good as evil. They mock true integrity, honesty and character. They murder innocent unborn humans in the name of choice, when the true choice was keeping their legs together and not spreading them out to any man who wants to penetrate.
When the Ten Commandments, Prayer and the Bible became something despised, that is when our society fell down into the abyss of evil. That is when morals were flushed down the toilet so the liberal agenda could spread the feces of demoralization as the new way of life. They scream like spoiled toddlers until those who had some sense of character gave up and let them have their way. We kissed the rule of law away and let hatred in all forms boil to the top and we have Barack Obama, Nancy Pelosi and their ilk to thank for part of it, the other part we only have ourselves to blame for not standing up and fighting for what is right and good and honorable. What do we have to show for this? We have 17 dead children and 17 families who are in pain, we have a country that kills its unborn because they have no worth, we have perverted ideas demanding rights when as individuals, they already have those rights. We have ideologies forced upon the nation that are detrimental to the whole, while lifting up pedophilia as an accepted practice, of government officials committing treason to line their pockets with money.
There is only one answer for this mess and that is for us to come together as a nation and turn back to what is good and just and right for all. It is time for all to call upon the one true God and ask for guidance, forgiveness and for leadership that won’t betray us to other countries. We have started in that direction, but we have a battle and war to wage against the liberal agenda and we have a Nation that needs to lift up and support those families who have lost children to a person who is a result of the societal perversion we have today.
