Sandy Hook Thoughts: Gone Too Soon

"There is always a lot of mourning from massacres, because they were gone too soon and were lost in the hands of "that crazy one". However, if we were to thoroughly examine the situation, was it preventable? It's funny how we concentrate on everything but the real problem at hand - why do people even end up going on killing rampages?

We can blame it on the person being mentally unsound, we can blame it on the society on many accounts; we can blame it on the music we listen to, the television shows we watch. No matter whether it is guns or knives, massacres or attempted massacres, the impact is great and will forever scar those who are involved, so don't miss the point about MENTAL HEALTH.

We need to think about how we handle stress, emotions and ourselves, before we start blaming everything else and failing to see that if we were in the same situation we might be driven to do the same thing. The question again is, how is this preventable?"
