Superb piece by a retired US AF vet and Secret Service agent. He understands the problem. It is not a gun issue. It is complex and America as a country has an evil bent especially in the classrooms, and at home where God Family and Country seem to have taken a back seat, or been erased completely.
I might add my observations to his commentary up front…
Eleven teens die in U.S. automobile accidents DAILY because they are texting and driving.. so with the leftist logic, let’s ban all cellphones for EVERYBODY! Or we can compromise and only let 21 years and older have a cellphone. The RINOs will vote for that.
Quick question.. in what school attack were the most children violently killed? He has the data here.. read it. Guns were not involved.
How many kids were killed in the Oklahoma City bombing.. that is here as well.
Let me point out - I watched a couple of media productions in the last few days. One entitled “Buried in Barstow” With Angie Harmon - quite a looker and a superb actress. It was grotesquely brutal, full of evil, and she had a clip added that she was so proud to have been the producer. She bragged that girls could also “kick ass”.. A very WOKE statement I would say. Equality and all that stuff. Awful
Then I went to see Top Gun- the latest Tom Cruise Production. It was fun, a great movie and it just showed up close the reality of aviation related military death and destruction. It is profoundly accurate… being a pilot and a US Air Force trained flight surgeon, I can say that it was 99% accurate on all the commentary about the physiology of flying. I rode the Centrifuge to 8 Gs.. without doing “the funky chicken” - You get to see that in the movie with a G-LOC..But point is..
America loves violence. Let’s just say it. Video games, Hollywood, and in some respect even some of our sports. Just watch a hockey game or listen to the parents in the stands scream at/for/about their kids on the football field.
Violence is part of normal male maturation and actually sports is a good outlet for that to be channeled into confrontation without severe death and destruction. The neutering of American manliness is actually part of our problem. What we need is the modulation or “governor” for my engine/car/motorcycle buddies.. to hold back terrible evil events such as Uvalde. Those police “holding back” for an hour is example of overly cautious leadership… or cowardice.
Actually it would be better to watch TV and see Tony Evans from Oak Cliff Bible Church in Dallas for an hour than watching “Buried in Barstow”. Pastor Evans has long preached that obviously we need God back in our lives and black families really need a father figure back in the house. Heck, every kid needs a dad/father figure at home - it is not just a racial issue.
This piece is worth a couple of minutes to read.

we need to go to school boards and ask simple pointed questions.. "how many teachers have had BLS?" or "Stop the bleed" .How many trauma bleeding kits does school have, where? Do you adhere to fire safety codes regarding fire extinguishers? Why not a stop the bleed kit at each fire extinguisher?
Cell phones/towers are killing us. So good idea to ban those as well.
