Prayers and Thoughts for families

I am going to get slaughtered for putting this here but so be it. If you look at the whole picture a strong argument can be made that the root cause of all these terrible happenings in society today is money.

Money doesn't cause trouble. People do.

The reality in many states in the USA is any fool can go into a store and purchase any kind of gun they want without a background check. This includes criminals and those planning to commit a crime.

You can talk all you want about the loss of faith, mental health issues etc.etc. but if you are going to encourage everyone and let everyone own a gun who wants to, you are going to end up with a lot of guns being used to kill innocent people.

If religious faith really prevents crime how do you explain why many Priests and Church officials have committed horrendous sexual abuse crimes against thousands of children?

Guns don't cause trouble. Money doesn't cause trouble. People do.

You are correct Kodiak. But what CAUSES people to do these types of things? I am sure this doofus was not meant to go kill a school full of kids when he was born. Simply stating that "people" do this is pretty meaningless.
