This time, it s just one kid, one gun, one dead student and one injured student. Not near the carnage of Colorado. But it is another case of a student using violence as a solution. And I think we all know there will be more. There will be more because apparently kids talk about it all the time.
Kids think about it.
Sure, most of them are just talkers or thinkers. But a certain percentage of them turn the fantasy into cruel reality. For too long, our society has taught that violence can be a solution. We have desensitized ourselves to violence by watching so much of it. At the same time, over the years, we have devalued the sanctity of human life and we have downplayed the significance of spirituality and morality.
