Problems in societies are always multi-layered. This is so because societies deny, avoid and intentionally delay problem resolution. This causes problems to fester and beget problems, thus become more and more numerous, tumorous, multi-layered. Societies are good at denying and avoiding healthy fundamentals. This is why societies have many longstanding problems that seem to be new and different but are just different manifestations of the same ones that existed at the inception of the society.School shooters are the same spirit that goes into countries and kills people, goes into homes with a warrant and kills people, goes into communities and shoots black people of all ages.
School shooters are all those who support these behaviors.
School shooters started before the 1900's; however we will only deal with a small chunk of the problem so we can quickly remember how many tentacles the problem has.
School Shooters are not a school problem but rather an education problem, an institution problem, a government, business, citizen problem, a voter problem. A culture problem. A constitution problem. A collective failure problem. A doublespeak problem. A double standard problem.
If education was about mental uplift, there would be no school shooters.
If Education addressed the total self (mental, emotional, physical, spiritual) there would be no school shooters.
In the USA, education is still practiced as segregation where different types and amounts of educational resources for different groups of people is the norm.
School shooters are the descendants of those who fought against education integration.
School shooters are the descendants of the logic of past and present sickos (racists).
School shooters are the product of everything that touches their lives.
School shooters are the direct result of those who put lies into textbooks and who claim that truth telling will damage white children's psyche. Truth hurts. Guess what. Their psyche is already damaged by schools and the rest of the society.
You can't shoot down truth and not expect different forms of shooting to take place.
School shooters have the same mentality as those who deny children breakfast or lunch at school because they don't have money or their parents did not pay the bill.
Schools shooters are related to those who allow junk food in schools and crappy meals.
School shootings come from not caring enough to pay teachers properly, while administrators make too much in some school districts.
School shootings come from putting too many restrictions and requirements on those who wish to home school.
The education system fails by causing teachers to pay for things out of pocket and work ridiculous hours. Education fails because it is not year-round and more hands-on in the application and reinforcement of understandings. Education is a one size, inflexible system that teaches the glorification of the favored group.
Education is memorization regurgitation, test, grade and score oriented rather than demonstration of understanding oriented.
This is just a small portion of the school shooter problem.
If education in the USA was the best in the world, there'd be no dropouts or failing grades because the education system would be very good at addressing the needs and speed of all learners.
For the republic as it stands, education even fails at teaching reading, reading comprehension, listening, listening comprehension, writing, mathematics and language.
And in case you missed it or dissed it, most of the citizens in societies are school shooters harming students by standing by allowing the same educational abuse that happened to them, continue to take place. Most tests used as measuring sticks, fail to come to the proper conclusions as to education's effectiveness, but rather misplaces education's defectiveness by blaming low achievement on students while taking credit for student high achievement.
Civilizations encourage and enhance virtues; however, societies encourage and enhance vices. The problem of school shootings is the society, almost in entirety, its constructs and finishing touches. Democracy, as practiced in the USA, is an ode to mediocrity. This dulls the senses, the being, and produces all kinds of logic that are projectiles aimed at every child, directly or through ricochet.
In the immortal words of Jonathan 'Jody' Patterson-Davis of Family Affair fame: “Every time I win, I beat myself.”
Thus every time I cast stones, my country-sized peasant house of straw & cards built on sand under glass develops more cracks that become even deadlier spiders that intersect to perfection.
Due to defective free will that craves thrills from ills, every time thinking and behavior aims and shoots to kill, another portion of Pandora's seal is broken.
The USA has killed many children worldwide, including in this country and including those in the favored group who are far less favored than they think.
School shootings are the result of karma, the result of for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction, the result of chickens coming home to roost, the result of all things that come back around, a reaping of what has been sown.
Communities cry now because they have not shed a single tear for black lives.
Guns R US
Guns are the US. Guns and ammo are as widely and easily available as toys. The whole culture desensitizes people to killing and the use of guns. Toys are made in the image of these weapons and G.I. Joe. Television is filled with shows and movies where guns are used as the primary response to problem resolution and as the self esteem thing in your hand that allows you to be brave and feel safe and do things you wouldn't do and shouldn't do if you didn't have a gun, that you use to save yourself from stupidity.Cartoons are filled with violence of all sorts and the use of guns. Think of Elmer Fudd and his gun and Daffy Duck (black) getting shot often.
By the way, quit talking about background checks. That's just code language to keep black people from buying guns because you have systematically gotten them caught up in your illegal injustice system. Psyche tests won't work either because they are calibrated to treat white mental illness as normal. Legal gun owners showed up for the January 6, 2021 Insurrection. How do you keep those crazies from owning guns?
Societies got more problems than you are willing to admit and they are spilling out of your closets.
