The devil in Connecticut

I have spent a great deal of time this past weekend reflecting on what has occurred. I am physically sick over this. I question my stance on the 2nd amendment. However, after examining the facts, the only conclusion I can come to is that we in this country must rethink out priorities. Not towards weapons but towards the treatment of the mentally ill and the criminals in our society.. In all of the recent tragedies one fact has emerged clear, these people were either dirt bag criminals or disturbed mentally ill people who needed help. Not one person in their circle of friends and family came forward and said, “They need help” The devil in Connecticut clearly had mental problems yet his own his own mother was the catalyst in the events that would unfold. She taught him how to use a gun and took him to a gun rage. He must have seen this as a means to an end to carry out his evil plans. All the laws in the world would not have changed that. Demented people hell-bent on chaos will always find the way. Lets us mourn for the innocents lost, lets reexamine what we need to do to prevent such a tragedy from occurring again. Never forgetting what makes this country the greatest in the world. The Constitution of the United States
