LETTER: Parents to blame, not guns, for school violence

Would one of you bright gun-control indoctrinators of gullible children please give me one reference where a weapon has killed?

Please.

It has never happened.

If the statement “guns kill” were true, then the same logic should be applied to “cars kill.”

Both are inanimate, and more kids are killed by cars than by guns.

Where’s the cry to ban the child-killer “car?”

A human has to have malicious intent and activate a device to carry out that intent.

In reality, what humans refuse to acknowledge: We’re not actually angry at the weapons, but what we see in ourselves — our innate ability to kill each other.

Today’s children should be asking why so many parents don’t acknowledge their children’s mental problems and seek help for them.

Not the tools of death, but parents’ lack of responsibility to their children and society is the problem.

The child has become the tool of our society’s ills.

Notice the human actuator in all homicides.

If you want to help ensure the odds of safety, stay in schools.

Simple.

Fund mental health.

Barking dogs have been known to bite.

Misplaced aggression in some has caused death in others.

It appears to me we do a poor job of parenting and providing mental health care to citizens.

In the matter of gun control, would you prefer a sick teenager to throw a molotov cocktail into rooms of students, burning them alive?

Be diligent of whom you allow to brainwash your children — it’s my country, too.
