WE ARE THE PROBLEM

It's not guns that are the problem, it's our culture. Knives,cars,pills,gasoline,fists etc.etc.etc. can all be used to kill,maim,and damage.

I see our sickness as a society from not taking the responsibility for our actions. We are not looking out for one another,or noticing what is in plain sight.

We don't want to "snitch" on a friend that shoplifts,or a thug that hurts, a bully, or abuser. Our excuse,"It will be dealt with in the afterlife."

Or,"They'll get theirs soon," and just when will that be?

We have freedom of choice,and responsibility for our acts.There is no "Get out of jail free card" in our society.You would think in a nation of "godnicks" and more than 4,200 religions world wide[http://www.slideshare.net/ochoa1jf/world-religions-8378347]we wouldn't be reading about children being shot,and mass global genocide[http://www.cfr.org/humanitarian-intervention/intervention-stop-genocide-mass-atrocities/p20379].

The Newtown,Connecticut shootings has put mental illness in the face of the public once again.Animal abuse is one of the indicators of mental illness.Years ago we emptied our archaic mental institutions and put the mentally ill on the street to fend for themselves.Parents have home-schooled their troubled children to shelter them, but this is a risky road[http://blog.helpforparents.com/2010/04/homeschooling-troubled-teens.html].The case can be made that home-schooling hides, doesn't help the Adam Lanza's of the world.No parent can provide what a team of educated professionals can provide for sick children.It's time we all grew up and realized that it takes all of to raise our children.As our President Obama said," "We know we can't do this by ourselves. It comes as a shock ... when you realize, no matter how much you love these kids, you can't do it by yourself."

We have laws up the "yin-yang", but they do no good without each of us playing our part.We are all responsible for abandoned & abused pets,children,mentally ill,poor, and victims world-wide.

So what have you done lately to make a difference?
