The mothers aren’t home anymore, the kids watch vicious video games, down load porn, and generally are growing up like animals. This is one of the results.
On the day of the April 16th shooting at Virginia Tech, there was a kid selling guns in the middle school down the street from VT. The kid did not get off easily. Bad timing.
There was a possible school shooting stopped a few months afterwards at the same school. I only know because my son identified the kid’s locker where the guns were found to school officials.
Re the video games, you are so right. I am a senior citizen who plays a video game with my 69 year old brother. The game is fun in many ways, but it has dark, even terrible aspects that I, a mature adult, find disturbing. The story forces players to make difficult moral choices, for example. Kids younger than 18 should not play this game and similar ones, in my opinion. But it is a popular title and plenty of children do play it.
And the kids don’t know who daddy is.
We’d leave shot guns in the headache rack and shells rolling around on the floorboard of unlocked pickups in the school parking lot. No one thought a thing about it. If you had a problem, you got into a fist fight but never a gun fight.
Washington state. Isn’t that liberal? Guess all those marijuana fields weren’t so calming as they thought.
