I wish I could take credit but along those same lines.
Don't blame the guns, blame our teachings.
We teach our children that there is no God, that morality is tractable. So what do you expect?
We teach our children that there are no losers, that everyone wins. So when life teaches them failure they can't handle it. So what do you expect?
We teach our children that losing touch with reality is "recreational". So when they do drugs, it's OK.
So what do you expect?
We teach our children that you don't have to earn respect, it's automatic. Then they get frustrated when they don't get respected. So what do you expect?
We teach our children that it's OK to kill babies in the womb. Then shouldn't it be OK to kill children in the school?
So what do you expect?
We teach our children that it's wrong to pray on the football field, on the basketball court on the baseball diamond. So they learn to prey on each other. So what do you expect?
We teach our children that the truth can be offensive. So they speak lies and pretend. So what do you expect?
We teach our children that reverence to things in antiquity is passé, so history is left to obscurity.
So what do you expect?
We give our children television where every form of deprivation is acceptable. So they grow up depraved. So what do you expect? Sadly, we can expect more Newtowns in the near future.
We are reaping what we have sown. Children learn whether we want them to or not.
