    Indeed.

    There is no valid reason to murder 8-9-10 year old children.

    sounds like there was a shit load more to this than him getting picked on...

    I guess she wants to be able to go to Walmart and not get beaten up.

    That woman just lost her son both spiritually and physically. This child she loved became an "evil" she cannot comprehend and she cannot reconcile her memories of the child she knew, this person she loved unconditionally, with what happened.

    I understand why most folks cannot find compassion for her plight; however (for me) she is not the shooter and I know her grief is massive. That she's able to string words together that make sense in English through this wall of grief is surprising.

    I respect your opinion here, but I also have a strong suspicion her parenting will prove a great deal of culpability

    As I said, I understand why most folks cannot find compassion for her plight. I hold no ill will for those who think differently. I just know where and why I come to this. So I did my best to explain it.

    Perhaps, instead of the first thought... "That woman just lost her son both spiritually and physically." we could lead with, "19 children from 7 years of age to 9 years of age and two adults have tragically lost their lives due to a disturbed individual who had a mother who did not care enough for society to raise her son with the knowledge that it is wrong to murder anyone.

    Her grief is overwhelmed by the other 20 lost lives.

    Compassion, in this case, is reserved for the other 20 families.

    I don’t know the history of this deranged mass-murderer but in many cases, there is no male influence. Teenage boys dominate their mothers.

    The moral structure of America is crumbling before our eyes. The far left calls for more gun control while Chicago, with some of the most strict gun laws in America, has some of the highest murder rates in America.

    Someone is responsible for this murderer’s home life. Where is the Father?

    Again, my priority for compassion is with the victims and their families. The last priority is with the woman who raised the animal.

    Very well written.

    Socialism is just the modern word for monarchy.

    D.C. has become a Guild System with an hierarchy and line of accession much like the Royal Court or priestly classes.

    Private citizens are perfectly able of doing a better job without "apprenticing".

    Yes, one thing the majority of these shooters have in common, is the lack of a strong man in their lives.
