Combine that with the all out assault on the very Christian principals this country was founded on, this I'm afraid is the result.
Heartfelt sympathies to the families affected.

Very well said, Maxum and you are so right. That individual was, reportedly, addicted to video games, some of them are so graphic and violent that they would shock most people. They award points as the player moves from room to room killing people in a setting that is very much like a school. Players become so desensitized to violence that it may not even seem real to them especially if they are dealing with emotional problems.
