Have a neighbor like this. Most of the time he is "normal", but when he forgets his meds, he can turn "crazy". He doesn't mess with me, but has riled other neighbors.<br />Safe Kids Now National Networkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13995790185623031699noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6596146115878589218.post-56308292288780346222013-04-21T12:34:13.811-07:002013-04-21T12:34:13.811-07:00 Thanks for your comment!

However being self destructive is a learned behavior, a behavior that is manifested on the thoughts, ideas, and wishes of a said community. how can one know hate unless it is taught hate how can one self destruct unless it is taught self destruction how can one know love unless it is taught or shown love. Inconclusion we all must become better role models for our own lives depend on it.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15840290322214679026noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6596146115878589218.post-79885984756198841102013-03-15T15:46:13.792-07:002013-03-15T15:46:13.792-07:00Right on, Cessaly!

My heart goes out to all the victims and also this man's family, his parent must be grieved. Thank you for sharing on the need of young men needing to be mentored, and how parents must deal with the anger exhibited in the lives of their children.

Gun control would definitely be a great short-term solution, while getting to the root causes of gun violence would be a long-term solution. The parts oif gun control that needs major improvement are the background checks and closing as many loopholes as possible. Another idea could be to show ALL of the effects of gun violence on entire families, rather than glamorizing it in movies and on TV. That would be excellent reality TV, not sugar-coated in any way. <br />Carole JohnsonAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6596146115878589218.post-20799285677445927872013-01-04T10:41:34.622-08:002013-01-04T10:41:34.622-08:00Rebecca Kimbel

Implementing your ideas represents a cultural change and gives a good “what” to do. Beyond promoting individual responsibility for making the “what” come to life within our span of control and discussing the what in public forums, are there other suggestions on “how” to move forward?Safe Kids Now National Networkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13995790185623031699noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6596146115878589218.post-40908359166027756532012-12-31T12:58:07.604-08:002012-12-31T12:58:07.604-08:00Cessaly D Hutchinson left a comment on your episod...Cessaly D Hutchinson left a comment on your episode:<br /><br />I like the easy to remember points: spiritual undestanding of themselves and strong sense of community.

Our society rewards bad behavior. Gun control would only inhibit those who obey the law. Criminals don't obey laws. If we want better behavior we must have better thinking. TV and entertainment teach sex, greed and destruction, by examples with narcissistic and sociopathic hero worship, We buy it like we but the drugs imported from Mexico and wonder why our national ethics and respect are slipping.<br />Rebecca Kimbel<br />Safe Kids Now National Networkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13995790185623031699noreply@blogger.com
