Why do these incidents happen more in America than elsewhere?

I can tell you exactly why.  It isn’t rocket science.  More and more Americans are becoming Takers.  And by doing so they renege on their Rights and Responsibilities.  And because of that, these would-be killers feel that they are victims.  How do you fix that?  The only way I know how is to empower them in their Rights and Responsibilities.  We need bring back into the schools, teaching that there are consequences to your actions.

Events like this sicken me. I have three granddaughters about the ages of those kids, and I can barely imagine the horror and grief the parents and grandparents are going through. You guys with your politics and conspiracy theories need to turn off the bile for a day or two.

This isn't a website for respect and mourning, it's about unsolved mysteries.  If there are political implications or conspiracy theories that may arise from an event like this then so be it.  Just because you cannot or choose not to see a bigger picture than the immediate tragedy, don't try to limit or censor the opinions of other posters.

Thanks for the info, but I stopped paying ym TV license cause i never watch live TV anymore, use on demand stuff.

It horrible Coffey.. just unbelievably horrible..  

It is said that the shooters girl friend is missing..    They are not sure about his brother as yet..  His dad I think was confirmed dead also..   20 little children and 6 adults.. and of course to make it 27 in total, the gunman himself

I watched the president speak about it, he couldn't speak much, because it is a sad sad story ... A sheriff was on updating everyone as much as possible

Kids killed between the ages of 5 and 10.. All of them looking forward to Christmas.. All of them had their whole lives ahead of them.......... Unbelievable..

I will NEVER know how anyone can take a gun and point it at a child.. For  petes  sake that itself is insane

I would not agree...
All people are "takers." People are greedy and selfish by nature. We have been our entire existence. Rats do a better job of sharing (and yes a facinating study showed that rats do share.) People have always been like this. We did not have a problem to this extent before...

This has nothing to do with schooling, or if it does, it has nothing to do with them understanding the consequences. If I was a betting man, I would bet that the people behind these tragedies understand the consequences perfectly well...that is why many of them kill themselves in the process...

[CuriousGreek]

I won't write down here, what i'm thinking about the killer, because UM won't let me post it. What kind of a freaky mind would do such harm to other people? And he not only removed so many people's life, among whom there were children, but also he gave to the families of the victims so much pain. The world is messed up totally................................

His brother is dead? I heard his brother was found alive hiding in the woods nearby. I know his girlfriend and one of her relatives is missing.

Why did the State police not mention that in their briefing just 15 minutes ago?
