Everytime this kind of thing happens, it becomes a discussion of guns.
We ignore the beating deaths, the stabbing deaths, etc and etc and on and on.
My opinion is very strong that as the family unit breaks down in this country and is actually becoming the butt of jokes it will get worse. We have watered down marriage, parenting so much it means very little.
That, to me is the reason. I do agree that children are coddled terribly today....if you punish, our society says you are bad.....I really get discouraged at how our society talks about and manifests its disgust toward marriage and family.
My vote on many things is moral decay in this country. We keep looking for issues to blame, and it is right in front of us, but it would be difficult to defend marriage or family thus we need issues to blame !
