I apologize right now, but this will be an extremely long post . I urge you to read it all the way through though.
We live in a day and age where our children are becoming the victims of senseless acts of violence and murder. Why ? Why do people target such innocent lives? Why do THEY not get a chance to live a healthy, happy, normal life anymore? It's a sad day when you wake up and send your children off for the day , not knowing if they will make it home that day because of so many monsters in this world who kill our futures, our beautiful happy children.
There are indeed monsters living every where, adults killing babies, adults taking away the very life they created, but also monsters stealing away the lives of children that have not had a chance to make the change the future so desperately needs. No chance for them at all. Monsters like Adam Lanza are to blame, who knows if it was how he was raised, or if he had mental issues (which to do something like that to children for no reason he would HAVE to be insane) What he did to those who were slain in Sandy Hook Elementary, was beyond sick, beyond a tragedy, It was in itself a historical defiling of our senses, of our children, ROBBING them of their futures. THAT is the worst part, they will never get to grow up, never get to do the things their destinies had proclaimed for them. Who knows what they could have been. Poor Jack Pinto could have been in the NFL for all his love of football.
Emilie Parker was described as being a happy child. Her energy would seem to light up a room. She was bright, who knows if she could have been the one that the world needed to cure cancer, or aids, or find a way to make greener living more affordable and cost effective ? No one will ever know now because the MONSTER has taken those lights from this world. A little girl, always so happy, always so cheerful, her parents never being able to see her face light up on Christmas morning.
The actions of that MONSTER are sick and vile and disgusting!! Yet we as a whole nation are immortalizing him for his actions. We are giving him exactly what he wanted !! We are going to remember him for the monster he was, and yet the children will be forgotten in time, just as we did with the victims of the Columbine shooting, the shooting at Virginia Tech, and so many more! Those victims should be the ones we always remember. The people who were senselessly murdered in a place where they thought it would be safe! Our schools!!
How is it that our schools were raped of their security so easily ?? How did they manage to get in WITHOUT being stopped before lives could be taken? If our schools are supposed to be where we invest in our future, how is it that it is there, that we lose our futures? How does one dressed in full battle detail even get inside ?? Yes, sure, we have signs saying weapons are not allowed on campus.. but as you can see that didn't stop them! Our schools are unsafe and we send our children there every single day ! We need to beef up security, we need to have it where NO one can get inside without passing first a police officer's station that is armed to the teeth! We need metal detectors, and our teacher's need to be trained to handle situations like this so it does not happen again !
There are mothers who are grieving because we did not protect our schools. Fathers who would do anything to protect their children who could do NOTHING to protect them that day because schools are supposed to be the one safe place our children could be! We should demand that more protective orders be implemented in our schools so that our children may have a future and so that so many mothers and fathers not be robbed of their children or family .
I think that we as a nation don't show the love necessary in order to prevent people from doing things like this either. We have so many bullies and so many people who torment others for their own personal superiority that makes so many people feel like they are nothing, that they are losers and doing these vile acts will get them noticed. If we could just dish out the love as much as we do the hatred and the judgement I'm sure that this will happen less. Do I think that this will happen? No, I don't because we are too caught up in our own lives, our own problems, our own feelings of insufficiency that we still have to bring others down to feel better about ourselves. Open your eyes America! Do you see what you have caused?? Is this enough for you ?? Do more children have to lose their lives for you to feel better? You make me sick! I and other people in this country NO THIS WORLD are losing faith in humanity. What happened to love your neighbor? What happened to people caring for each other regardless of who you are, regardless of what you could do for them? Good will has left this world . All that is left is the few who still care for others and those who just don't care about anyone but themselves. When will you wake up and see that this is caused by YOU (and by you I mean the bullies in this world, the ones who must drag every one else down with them)
I know there will be people protesting our gun rights once again, but seriously you have to understand this. No, guns do not kill people, its the hand that is pulling the trigger. Every weapon is deadly but can be safe if given to the right people. If you still want to argue that guns should be illegal, well criminals or the criminally insane don't bother to worry about the law. All that will do is make it to were we cannot protect ourselves should another situation arise. Guns should be regulated as much as medicines, and credit, you have to go through several background checks in order to buy a car as well as to drive it . You have to have a clean background to apply for a job even. I bet those who are rallying against guns don't know you could kill someone with a penny. How is that possible? Well stand on top of a tall building and let it rain down. You could split someone in half with a quarter and they wouldn't even see it coming . You could kill a hundred people with just a dollars worth of pennies from there. Will you try and get coins taken away ? I didn't think so . You could kill someone with a fork. Yeah, an eating utensil. Will you have those removed from the home? Probably not. I don't care for guns, but I know that they are essential for protection.
Getting back on subject at hand, the tragedy of the innocent victims. I have cried many hours for the loss of your lives, and have felt so much anger and grief though I did not lose a single family member to this. I know no one who was lost that day , but I grieve for you , for the lives you will not have , for the families who are hurting, and the lights that were extinguished that never burned at their brightest yet . All of the little darlings who were lost, you will never be forgotten, not by me . The teachers who were heroes that day , Victoria Soto who died while protecting her class, who lied to the monster to get him to leave her classroom, she will always be remembered. My tears, my grief, my love you all will always have. If the world will not honor you , I will regardless. It may not be much to the families, it may not be acknowledged, I don't care, what I care , is that your memories, your lives will live on in at least one other person.
To the families who lost someone that day , my heart goes out to you, in condolence, in sympathy, and in grief.
My point with this blog post , is this:
1. Love more (Less people feeling suicidal and or like nothing and like no one cares)
2. Regulate WHO can own a gun, and How accessible they are
3. Implement STRICT safety procedures at schools (Who can even get past the front door, have police guarding the hallways and doors, have background checks on all teachers, and staff, as well as students, implement a STRICT zero tolerance for bullying)
4. Remember the victims don't remember the monsters
5. Love your child , teach them what to look out for, teach them not to bully, punish when they do .
