Guns or A Mental Illness & Morality Problem

Again we are hearing a drumbeat to ban guns of one form or another. Come, let us reason together.  Switzerland issues every household a rifle!   Every Swiss citizen is considered responsible for defense of the nation. Their Government Trains every adult they issue a rifle.  Switzerland has the LOWEST GUN RELATED CRIME RATE OF ANY CIVILIZED COUNTRY IN THE WORLD !!!   CLEARLY GUNS ARE NOT THE PROBLEM.   Instead we should be talking about why so many of our young people are willing to kill innocent men, women, and children. This was virtually never heard of 50 years ago. What has changed?    


There are 3 things that jump out at me right away. First, 50 years ago almost every person was raised with a belief in God’s ULTIMATE judgment, and a fear and respect of the law. Today the majority of people in our nation don't believe in a righteous God that will hold them responsible for their actions. And in fact many do not believe in a god at all. Then there is fear and respect of the law. Well I think we all know that fear and respect of the law has been dropping for years. And lastly we have seen a tremendous rise in the use of drugs for the treatment of mental illness instead of institutionalization which was much more common before 1975. I believe these 3 things have led us to the chaos that we find ourselves living with today.   Let's just look at the statistics regarding violent attacks in schools for example. The fact that in the last 20 years,  16 violent incidents inside of schools involving guns or bladed weapons, were all committed by individuals who were taking antidepressants at the time; should make us look at how these people are supervised.  I'm sure you have noticed TV commercials that list one of the "side effects" of many of these antidepressant drugs as suicide.  Maybe NOW they should add "murder"  to the list.    


Let us pray for the families who have lost their greatest blessings, their children and loved ones, let us grieve as a nation for the senseless loss, then let's get to work on the REAL problem; WE have a MENTAL ILLNESS AND MORALITY PROBLEM in this nation. THAT is an issue that we should ALL AGREE to do something about                

Thanks for your time and may God bless and protect each and everyone of you and your families. I Am Whamm, let those with wisdom hear.
