Aurora shooting

America is missing the real issue. That man saw himself as the Joker. He got his identify from a movie that promotes violence. He probably grew up playing violent video games. That offensive commandment "Thou shall not kill" was banned from the school he attended. His life instruction wasn't "Be ye kind one to another", but killing is a game and you should spend your time working to get good at it. His hero wasn't Jesus Christ, but the Joker. There has been an assault on God and His word and a glorification of in your face violence. It has nothing to do with guns. It has to do with his values and core principles. He got them from the culture. Hollywood promotes this and so does the video game and music industry. We've come a long way since Roy Rogers. This young man was indeed trained up in the way he should go. And what he worshipped, he followed. Whose child will be next? America's schools, homes, and entertainment industry are training this generation to be anything but godly.

Ranger you spoke the truth and john q public has stood by and let it happen. Back in the 60's 1% of the public took the bible and pray out of school and it has gone down hill ever since.

[Bassky]

AMEN!AMEN!AMEN! I agree with both J_Row and Ranger 61!!
Our country is in big trouble! No fear to God, we have turned our backs on the Lord.
Lord, help us! Pray for our President and our Congress to FEAR the Lord and put our trust and faith
in HIM! Put Bibles and Prayer back into our schools before it is too late.
It won't be long before car bombings and terrorists start attacking here in the USA. We are in deep trouble.
The only hope is in HIM, our Lord Jesus Christ!

You are totaly correct witout god and the bible we have nothing anymore just look around at whats going on now. with all the panny waste judges and lawers we are in deep i was a narcotics and violent crimes investigator for 12 yrs. there is a lot of senless killing and hurt that goes on. politicians have taken the bible and prayers from schools the 10 commandents from the court rooms and all common sense from themselves. people make youre voice heard stand up for your rights and above all else teach your children to pray

Don't know about all that, everyone else his age grew-up the same way but it didn't make all of them psychopaths. Too many people claim to be a "product of their environment" as an excuse for not wanting to take responsibility for their choices/actions.

Bloomberg was already foaming at the mouth regarding gun control, the rest will be crawling out of the woodwork shortly (of course you don't hear any of them talking about the Operation Gunrunner fiasco, wonder why?). Some will never learn (or admit) that attempting to remove our 2nd Amendment Right (which will never happen) would only increase the number of these type of situations. Had one or two armed citizens been in that Theater, odds are the number of victims could/would have been substantially lessened, and there would be one less scumball to clog-up the Courts crying about how his mommy didn't love him enough. Instead, many (especially today's youth) are being programmed to believe firearms are "evil" and unnecessary.

Guns are to blame for killings as much as pencils are for misspelled words, and for spoons making Rosie O'Donnell fat.

Well said NeonMoon!

People's values and way of life have changed and NOT for the better IMO. How many times back in the 60's and 70's was something like this even heard about? What has happened is truly ashamed and I hope there is swift justice for that young man so my tax dollars dont have to help feed him for the next 50 years.

The sad thing is the cost of swift justice. I say continue to feed him and not give him the easy way out, unless of course they can lower our cost of swift justice.

I think society is becoming a bit "confused" as it seems like it's being taught that individuality is no longer a good thing. We're being poured into one big melting pot, and are just "people". I remember when leading your own way was good, I remember when being "manly" was good, because you stood for what you believed in, because you believed in what was right and what was fair. You helped those weaker than you because that was what being a man meant. I remember when people were proud to be an "American" without all the hyphens proceeding the title.

Instead, we're being told not to stand for what we believe, and that we have a government who will tell us what's best for us, and implement that into law, "for our own good". Anything outside of that will likely get our name on a "list" somewhere. I mean, after all, we're all simply a herd of drooling idiots who don't have sense to pour whizz out of a boot so naturally we shouldn't be given the ability to make our own choices. I think this gradually grows with each new generation, we're having our individuality bred-out of us. We're becoming more and more complacent regarding the decisions others are making for us (which is why we are where we are now) instead of standing-up for not only ourselves, but for our Country and for future generations.

Here's what really irks me. These murderers martyr themselves because they can't make a positive statement with their life, and guess who assists them, the media. They run 1-2 hour "specials" on the life and times of these sub-human animals for weeks/months following their murderous rampage, in-turn giving them the fame and attention they craved. If media had any moral fiber, they'd concentrate more on the victims and spend less air time glorifying the murderers for the sake of ratings. They'd give no time to those in office who are so concerned about using incidents like these to further their adgenda (as opposed to a true concern for the victims).

Nope, I have little interest in seeing pics of this guy as a kid, and hearing about his pathetic so-called life, his life meant nothing because he chose that route. He made a decision to take the lives of a dozen others instead of simply taking his own. He was a coward, a murdering coward, and no TV Special will ever make me think differently, nor will any speech from his parents, or any excuses from anyone remotely connected to him. He was no longer in their (parents) control, he was an adult and he made his own decisions. He was old enough to know right from wrong.

Like most other similar animals who commit violent crimes, his future will be drug-out for decades with appeals, mental evaluations, etc. If he was a man, he'd admit guilt and ask for the death penalty (which CO does have), and at least do one thing right in his pathetic existence. He won't however because he's a coward. I hope he rots in Hades for eternity, and gets passed around like a pack of smokes in prison in the meanwhile. He wanted attention, I hope he gets what he so badly wanted.
