Michael, I know you are upset at the moment, but don't you think that the sheer availability of guns has anything at all to do with what happened today? All of the news discussions I have heard point out to how easy it is for children, who are still learning about self control, to blow someone away. I must say that some adults in this society have the same problem!! When there are guns around and tempers flare, the outcome is usually much worse than if there were no weapons. The other point I have heard raised repeatedly is that children who murder come from violent, dysfunctional families, and are unattached somehow. This particular teenager cannot receive the death penalty because of Oregon's laws, but shouldn't our society play a role in preventing incidents like this, rather than executing younger and younger children?
