The Omaha, Nebraska shooting at the mall, I mean. I was just watching the news and the newscaster asked the - admittedly rhetorical - question about how this could have happened. Which question makes my blood boil (even while I know the newscaster probably did it just for emotional emphasis). The boy stole an assault rifle from his stepfather’s house. It’s often a copout to just blame the parents for a teenager’s misdeeds but in this case I’d say it’s justified. I mean, if they keep an assault rifle at home, then what do they think their children will learn about problem solving and interpersonal communication?
