The latest school shooting at Virginia Tech University was by far the worse in the US history? And every new episode of this type seems to be going to a higher gradient.
But why would a student kill their own school mates?
One would think that the first time it happened, in Columbine, the shock and rejection this action got from society not only in the US but around the world, looking at the grief caused to the parents of the fallen ones would be enough shock to stop anybody else to copy cat this. But no, it almost seems like a fashion, like a horrifying trend to follow regardless of the consequences. Sadly, the consequence is always death; self inflicted or shoot by police.
It use to be that when someone wanted to commit suicide the person would do it in the privacy of their home, or just throw themselves to the subway rails or jump from a bridge, but now, young guys decide to shoot themselves and taking other lives with them as well.
Why inflict so much pain in others and then take your own life? What are we missing here? Is it drugs?, Is it hormones in meat? Is it society? Pesticides? What? Does it have to do with the pain of rejection from your pierce that leads you to just shoot everyone else that crosses you path?
How can we as parents be sure that sending our kids to College doesn't mean that they will end up dead by a nut case just because?
The thrill radical Muslims must have a field day when they see this on the news: "They're killing each other!" They must be celebrating with joy.
Where do you find the answer to this question?
Is it in society? a society that mingles around guns, and thinks that killing the bad guys is OK and in their mental handicapped state they see all people their age as the bad guys? How can you begin to comprehend why young humans kill their own kind?
And what's with the "fashion" of choosing schools by other nut cases like the last two pedophiles that decided to take their fantasy of rape to the ultimate level of thrill inside schools?
A question that does not have an easy answer, but a situation that needs to be addressed and studied throughly, because when a society kills their own it is a clear sign of decadence.
