How can you be taught to fight fire with fire and that being a victim is acceptable? It would seem counter intuitive.
I believe everyone should be outraged at these shootings. But I'll place my outrage with the shooter.
Not sure where I mentioned young people but this problem does seem to affect the young more prevalently than an older demographic. What are the influences that make this generation go this route? Is it lead by example? Is it that they've been raised with more violence in their lives? Violent video games and media? I just want to know what is causing this.

If you watch the news or the happenings in our country, even from afar, you see nothing but hate speak. Saying what you might endorse or believe in, will bring a torrent of high profile attacks at your sheer existence.
80 years on this planet....lived through a lot....
never experienced such venom, to the point where I, a news junkie, hides from the latest but you cannot escape it.
I fought for this country and what it stood
for and I want that feeling again.
And while I understand your outrage at the shooter, and understand, even you are asking the right question about where this comes from....
THAT, to me is the MAJOR contributor
