Mass murder, homicides, assassination, manslaughter.. how long will we continue to allow these threats to our very lives be tolerated? This absolute evil has surfaced again in Newtown. The horrifying magnitude of these events stagger every thought, plan, dream.
In acts far away in Norway or Africa or Palestine we are a bit reserved with our agony and pain. Of course all children and people , friends and neighbors we know count? Could it just be the incredible shock of early childhood children being slaughtered in mass in their neighborhood school? The count is on going…..
The tragedy and endless sorrow of these unnecessary deaths has never been enough of a deterrent. Killing evidently justifies more killing. Is it possible that “No Killing” of any kind, for any reason, … might start a trend in that direction? Yes, that is what I am saying. Stop the killing!
How naive is that? That would be a great start for all humans. We must simply try .There is no other option and meanwhile we can control the tools of killing.
Being a human and knowing how imperfect we all are, I will concede that there will always be some really sick and dangerous people who would make the victim count always possible. Exploring and studying the youth or past life of the lowest and depraved will not bring any end to the killing or life of the killer. Discussing the credits and minuses of the demented’s society and family influences are interesting exercises in psychology but fruitless in producing a solution to ending the carnage. Our efforts to find some rational or solace in human behavior is only ego massage/ consolation.
People are unpredictable.
Guns, Rifles, Pistols are not. When loaded with ammunition and in the hands of a irresponsible “person”, tragedy happens..Death is often the preferred result when compared to some physical and neurological victims.
All GUNS must be controlled. Eventually, guns can be erased, eliminated. This is the serial killer.
This serial killer has many names . All are sickeningly familiar. Colt, Glock. Sauer, Browning, Beretta, Remington. The most low and depraved life of humanity are empowered by possession of these “killers”.
The senseless murders of children in schools, innocents shopping or strolling in the neighborhood, theaters, houses of worship, are becoming legends of infamy. These acts must never be tolerated and all who oppose the measures to safeguard the population by controlling weapons should be prosecuted as accessories.
We can monitor those that own legal weapons
We can monitor all ammunition sold and replaced
We can structure rigid guidelines to new owners and ban assault and military weapons.
We can repossess and confiscate all weapons that are unregistered or without approved official purpose.
We can monitor the documented behavior eccentrics and arrest recorded criminals active before the tragedy takes place.
These actions can be taken today…now…!
A serious and effective beginning is absolutely mandated today so we can say we have taken some measures to end this madness.
We can end the life of this “serial killer”.
