[QUOTE="OKCHunter, post: 2111667, member: 8534"] I believe the answer has more to do with the culture and society that we have developed, not the tools (firearms in many instances) that people use to commit horrible acts. It seems to me there is a much higher level of immorality and violence in our society today. For example, video games, television, movies are much more violent than I remember as a kid. This must have a "numbing" effect on children which results in less respect for human life. Also, many parents protect kids from failure instead of teaching them how to rebound from failure - why does every kid get a trophy when they compete in a sport? In addition, many children never learn accountabilty for thier actions which results in lack of responsibility - read unruly and undisciplined kids. Put all this togather - no respect for human life, no ability to deal with failure, and lack of accountability creates a potential monster. The solution is to change our culture which begins with parents and thier children. Monitor and regulate what they are exposed to, teach them how to turn a failure into success (keep trying until you succeed), and teach them discipline. Just my opinion. [/QUOTE]
