Before anyone here passes any judgment to what I may say please know that I am never seeking to offend, just merely trying to expand the individual thought.

Whether or not we feel this way or that way about why this event has happen is irrelevent. Humanity is so quick to judge an event before they understand it fully. This forum is attacking liberals, the right to the second amendment, antidepressants, etc. for the sole purpose of defending thier emotional opinions based of thier individual life experiences.

Out of all of this, there is a much larger problem that must be addressed before anything and it is not from the actions of the shooter. On the contrary, it is the action of every individual there. How many there risked their lives trying to stop this man? Then ask yourselves how many of those fled, hid or simply laid in the fetal position while ONE person threatend all the whole stood for? I’m not trying to justify the shooters actions, only trying to make people understand that independent thought, released from fear, of just one, could have stopped this.

To pass judgment on an event, try to point the finger at a single cause and then seek to enforce that opinion to others is self defeating. This was our own individual faults and no one elses. If we want to stop things like this we need to teach our children and selves how to THINK FOR THEMSELVES without worrying about what others are doing. When people can do this there won’t be problems like this because they won’t have an attacker to defend their beliefs against, but instead only see a line of thought that works without condition.

The freedom from the people’s influence, is the awnser to people’s peace.

You may remain in denial ... after awhile you’ll come around. I’m sure others have patience ... but what is troubling is not some “chemical imbalance”. No, it’s a soul issue. There’s something troubling the person. If people weren’t so darn self centered and actually cared about others, they wouldn’t be reaching for pills. And that’s the truth .... eventually you will understand that.
