I would like to express that my thoughts and prayers, along with those of properly thinking Americans were, from the moment we heard of this tragedy and, continue to be with the children, parents, families and teachers who were affected by this terrible event.
None of us can imagine your pain or fathom your loss.
Words are of little, if any comfort.
The prayers of millions are reaching God and we ask that He hold and keep you close.
Faith is the thread which binds us as one and through faith, we offer support.
Regretfully, there are those who seek another purpose from your tragedy but their words, actions and intentions are as shallow as a contact lens.
If your solution to the evil which manifested itself in a small Connecticut town is to make it harder or impossible for law abiding citizens to own guns…You may well be a liberal but you are most clearly…An idiot.
CNN, Newsweek and The Daily Beast’s David Frum, moments after a school shooting in Newtown CT, flashed a tweet stating:
To this magnanimous horses ass, David Frum, this shooting was political and the fault of a gun or guns. In fact, it was neither and he knows it. For Frum and others of his slimy ilk, this was nothing more than the latest opportunity to attempt the advancement of an ideological agenda.
Frum was not alone.
“This is America’s Dunblane. We banned handguns in Britain after that appalling tragedy. What will the U.S. do? Inaction not an option.— Piers Morgan (@piersmorgan) December 14, 2012“
Piers Morgan
@piersmorgan – White House spokesman Jay Carney’s right – today’s not the day to debate gun control. YESTERDAY was the day to debate it.Piers Morgan
@piersmorgan – Don’t just mourn these poor dead children America – get angry and do something to stop these senseless shootings happening.Piers Morgan
@piersmorgan – Any moment now, a gun nut will tweet me saying ‘If all the kids in that school had been armed, the shooters would have been stopped…’ (a clear-cut fallacy as no one would claim the kids need to be armed, rather the adults in the school should have been armed)
And what of THIS Morgan? THIS is from your own network and it too happened yesterday.
Frum…Morgan…You sorry sacks of crap…Your first thought was to score some wrong-headed political points from this awful, awful turn of events. You SHOULD be ashamed though I rather doubt you know the meaning of the word.
On 9-11…EVIL used box cutters and killed 3000 people. In Oklahoma City…EVIL used fertilizer, fuel and explosives to kill 168.
Yesterday…Children and teachers were killed by evil.
6 teachers and 20 children and upon their graves…YOU want to push YOUR political agenda???
REALLY???
The party of Fast and Furious and Benghazi gun dealing is calling for GUN CONTROL??? The party that is happy to arm Mexican drug cartels and middle East terrorists wants to take OUR guns away???
When you sent out those abhorrent tweets…THOSE BODIES…THE SMALL AND THE ADULT…WERE STILL IN THAT SCHOOL BUILDING.
You bastards….While your thumbs were busy delivering your absurd and petty thoughts…Police were moving from classroom to classroom, closet by closet…finding what no person with a conscience could fathom. Those officers will have to tell parents, brothers, sisters, husbands and wives that someone they loved so dearly won’t be coming home.
It wasn’t the guns that wreaked havoc in that school or in that mall or in a house in KC…It was the morally corrupt, insane and violent lunatics who held them.
My heart breaks for those families in Connecticut. I can barely see through the tears as I write this article.
We are but barely over a week from Christmas and in the midst of Hanukkah and now, in homes in Newtown, there will be presents, wished for and wrapped with love that will go unopened.
Did THAT ever cross your mind Frum???How about YOU Morgan??? DID IT…As you tweeted your lame-brained thoughts???
Clearly it never occurred to you as you both appear heartless.
What we have is a culture NOT of guns but of loathsome sensibilities.
We take GOD from the classroom and the public square because, we’re told, others might be offended.
OFFENDED???
I can think of few things more offensive than removing God from the daily lexicon and then wondering what happened.
We, as a society, have instilled in generations that human life means so little that if it can be wantonly ended before birth so why then should it not also be considered acceptable to end it in a classroom, a mall or in the home? Yesterday in America, more than 2,300 were killed in the womb but where is Piers Morgan’s outrage? Why isn’t Frum demanding that the practice of taking THOSE lives be ended?
No…The same people who exploit a tragedy like Newtown, advocate taxpayer funding of Planned Parenthood and THAT organization has taken the lives of 324,000 and counting so far this year.
Here is the most disgusting scoreboard you will ever see.
Rather than teaching generations self-respect and respect for others, respect for property and for life, we have made it a progressive goal to promote class envy, make failure seem like success and teach that success is rife with evil.
Sadly, there have always been and always will be depraved individuals in society.
Atheists will ask…“If your so-called God exists, why does he allow such things to happen?”
My answer is straight forward. “If God didn’t exist…We would ALL be like the sick puke who killed those teachers and children yesterday.”
Just as God exists, so too does evil exist and it was evil that killed those children and teachers…Not guns.
So…Take away all the guns, Frum? THAT’S your answer?
How’s it working in Chicago or Washington DC, Morgan???
The real answer, if one exists, goes 180 degrees in the opposite direction of your and the rest of the left’s ideology.
Rather than teach that it’s everyone for themselves, rather than being so politically correct that we’re afraid to speak up against those who we see as a threat for fear of “offending” them…Rather than remove from society what is GOOD…we need to do quite the opposite.
A society steeped in respect…for one’s self and others, respect for life and property, a society which encourages personal contact above self-imposed reclusiveness will fare far better than what we have today.
Children who are immersed, from a young age, in reality rather than in the make believe worlds of gamers, taught to look someone in the eye and speak to them rather than sit next to them and text their thoughts and provided with a belief in faith, God and religion will do far, far better than a society of adults who, as children, were given trophies when they lost the game, promoted when they failed and taught that religion had no place in the town square.
Yes, children have always played make-believe but, decades ago, we played make-believe face to face with our friends and our friends were other kids with whom we ate lunch , rode our bikes, went to movies and had birthday parties. They weren’t people with fake or anagram names, who lived only in cyberspace and could be unfriended with the push of a button.
A lack of reality in childhood leads to the inability to accept reality as an adult.
It takes a certain and clear sort of evil to do what was done in Newtown Connecticut yesterday, in Columbine so many years ago, in a mall in Oregon, a movie theater in Colorado, on the campus of Virginia Tech and wherever such things happen.
No amount of gun laws will keep Sociopaths at bay.
It’s not that David Frum, Piers Morgan and their ilk don’t get that. They do but, stopping sociopaths is not the end for which they intend to employ their means.
Yesterday, Obama stated, “We’re going to have to come together and take meaningful action to prevent more tragedies like this, regardless of the politics.”
“Regardless of the politics???”
It’s the 2nd Amendment that irritates them far more than senseless murders.
“Regardless of the Constitution” is what Obama really meant.
The idea that citizens should have the right to defend themselves from their government…THAT is what THEY see as evil. Removing guns from those who did not commit murder is what they believe is the right thing to do.
And they, Frum, Morgan, Obama and their slimy ilk, are more than happy to push their sick and twisted ideology after any high profile opportunity and that includes riding it on the coattails of murdered 5 year olds.
Perhaps if we, as a society, led our children towards God and religion we wouldn’t have to lead them so often, away from tragedy.
Yesterday, a piece of crap masquerading as a human being, whose name I will not mention for the sake of doing my part to keep him from his infamous desires, awoke in Connecticut where he murdered his mother before walking to a grade school in Newtown where he murdered some 20, 5 and 6 year old children and 6 teachers.
He used guns registered to his mother.
The problem with sociopaths is that we rarely see them coming and even more rarely can we stop them before it’s too late….Before they take lives.
The ilk of Frum, Morgan, Obama and the rest who wish to take our freedoms…We CAN see them coming.
In the days to come, investigators will search for clues and they will find them in the friends and family of this despicable person. They will find clues on his computers and his phone. Clues will be found but not answers.
Mirror fogging wastes of molecules like David Frum and Piers Morgan don’t want answers, THEY want to assess blame to further their ideological agenda.
The answers will elude investigators because they are looking for “the” trigger. It’s not what set this piece of crap off YESTERDAY that really matters. It’s what led UP to whatever set him off for which they should be searching.
A society in which fewer and fewer people ascribe to religion or believe in God. A society of people, dumbed down, taught that nothing is bigger than the individual part.
Evil, cloaked in the absence of morals, lacking conscience and steeped in decades of denying personal responsibility while living in a world where someone or something would take care of him, walked into that school, full of rage and hate. Why? Because he felt slighted by his mother? Is that why he killed her and then…Took away those who he felt, in his twisted, warped world where reality didn’t exist, meant more to her than HE did before he shot himself…Not out of any knowledge that what he had done was morally abhorrent but because he just didn’t want to be punished for what he knew to be against the laws of man?
As a nation, we don’t need knee-jerk reactions…We need a gut-check.
Fewer guns is not the answer.
Maybe more faith…
Is.

Wonderfully written and right on. Just like Brady Quinn’s comments about the Belcher murder,
( http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/early-lead/wp/2012/12/03/brady-quinn-on-jovan-
belcher-tragedy-an-eloquent-moment-for-chiefs-qb/)
these issues go deeper than guns and gun control. But that discussion is pushed to the bottem as we argue about all the wrong things, lead by our leaders and the media. As a believer, the removal of all things God leads to increased evil. But even on a non-spiritual note, the advent of moral relativism will only lead to more “senseless” acts of violence as children are taught that right and wrong are relative to the individual…making a purely horrific act such as killing children acceptable to certain individuals if it seems “right” to them. Removing the principles associated with God is far more dangerous than just removing God’s name…though they are all intertwined.
The people are the guiltiest of the crimes that are being committed. We allowed the progressives to remove G-D from our schoolss, Weallowed the progressive correctness, We allowed the lack of civic responsibility, We allowed the abortions and abominations to pass with little or no resistance and now 40 years later we want to blame everything on the other side. PUT THE BLAME WHERE IT BELONGS PEOPLE! Quit this blame game we are as guilty as they are so now fix it and quit the b******! We allow our schools not to teach the civics that our children need to know. How many of your children know at least 1 or more police officers in your local areas. I MEAN KNOW THEM HAVE THEIR PERSONAL PHONE NUMBERS IN THEIR (Your Childs phone) PHONES. We allowed the progressives to remove the connections in the communities that make communities work and then we blame the kook that blast up the community center. Folks the problems need to be delt with yes but you need to make the difference 1 connection at a time. If you can’t have a Sherriff’s car pull in your driveway without some one thinking theres trouble then you need to get busy. Yes Obumbler and the progressives want to tear down this country but it is up to us to build it up from the backyard up just like our Founders did and if we have to fertilize the tree of liberty LET IT BE!
Most Definitely More God ….
Most definitely less Guns to no guns….
My daughter was MURDERED by a crazed person with a gun….
Linda,
Had the crazed person chosen another device…a knife…a car…whatever…Would you also advocate a ban on those as well?
…Evil is born broken, nothing will stop it, nothing!
Again, this is sooooo right on!
As I looked at the confused reports of the evil that occurred (e.g., whether the swine was using his mother’s stolen rifle, or pistols, or both), and the chorus of “ban assault weapons,” “ban all guns,” “add super-tight regulations” and similar commentaries, I wondered, looking at the line of terrified children being led away from that school which had just been transformed into a place of unspeakable evil, what would the commentary from the left have been had the evil-doer waited in his mother’s stolen car, and then slaughtered the innocents with it as they went outside for recess. Would the left demand that vehicles be banned? Would they demand mental checks for vehicle users?
Thank you for putting into words the emotions I have trouble describing. I share in the hope that the followers will become leaders in putting God back into every aspect of their lives.
