jv_coach Posted May 18, 2018 Report Share Posted May 18, 2018 So with these schools shootings, people are calling for more armed officers at school, more metal detectors, more mental health awareness. Does anybody else not see that if you need armed police officers, metal detectors, mental health professionals at school the problem is within the schools and not the guns. The problem is there is no discipline in schools. How dare a a teacher use corporal punishment on your kid, because your kid never does wrong. Its the other kids fault, it's the teachers fault, we discourage personal responsibility and we act dumbfounded when a kid just continues to make decisions based on the sad fact that they have never faced real consequences for their actions. The problem is we think kids are innocent of evil desires but they are not. We act like the music they listen to, the books they read, or the media they use has no influence over their actions. Then we got teachers and administrators who find their worth as people based on if the kids like them, instead of making them learn, we got teachers and administrators with no backbone and just do what they are told without worrying about the implications of their spineless decision making. We got teachers who agree with the absurdity of boys and girls should use the same bathrooms and locker rooms. We have boys winning girls sporting events in the name of tolerance for the LGBT perversion. Well people we tolerate a lot of bogus political correctness ideology in schools up to this point, so we might just have to tolerate school shootings now. Sadly nothing happens overnight and neither was this travesty we built, called modern public education. So the finger needs to be pointed at the people who said " Corporal punishment is wrong" the people who say "kids with mental health issues should be allowed in schools", those who think its ok for kids with gang affiliation to be in a school to start with, blame people who say "we should think based on our feelings not on what is true", blame those who say " George Washington is bad ,but Che Guevara is good" and we should blame those who hate God so much that the mere reference to God in schools or to pray in Jesus name is ,in these progressive minded people, the downfall of a western society. Blame the guns if you want, but whatever you do, never blame the evil that lies in each of our own hearts, and never demand from yourself and your children any type of moral excellence. High schools are just a microcosm of the problem in society and the real problem is that our society is immoral, hedonistic, narcissistic and godless. Our culture believes nothing is wrong so don't you dare judge me, and that God will never judge us for our sins, but our conscience tells us that there is moral truths that baddog, Ty Cobb, BigWolf10 and 4 others 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We never had these problems in school. Our differences were settled in the alley by the 7-11. Worked like a champ. Like coach said, this is the unspanked generations. Big girl wants to get her gun agenda in there when she/he should point that liberal finger at herself for her/his politically correct views and insane liberal policies which allow these types of individuals to flourish. 77 and jv_coach 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reading comprehension and the ability to reason are essential in this case. The OP talks about a lack of discipline, tolerance for perversion, etc., as being a driving force in today’s school. When I was 8 years old my father would have me walk to a convenience store about two blocks from my house. When I got there I would buy a box of .22 short bullets for 25 cents. Then my father and I would go to the canal near my house and shoot at turtles and snakes and things floating in the water etc. Sometimes I would do the same thing but he was not with me. So here is a young child allowed to buy bullets and walk on a public roadway with a rifle. No one bothered, no one called the police, no one challenge anything and just excepted that as life. The point is that anyone could have a firearm and anyone could buy bullets yet we had no mass murders and probably nowhere near the violence of today. There were no gang shootings, people did not have fear to live in a city for being shot randomly, etc. We drove around town with shotguns and rifles exposed in the back of our trucks window racks. We sometimes brought them to school. People did not call the police and we were in no fear of people breaking into our pickup trucks in a parking lot just to get their hands on any gun that was seen. In fact there was almost no need because you can simply buy one. So what has changed? Why could a small child get his hands on a firearm and buy his own ammunition and yet there was no fear in society? It isn’t the number of guns that is the problem. It is not the access to guns that is the problem because they are much more restricted now than when I was growing up. Not all but much of the problem is exposed in the OP. Everybody gets a trophy, no one gets their feelings hurt, you get to walk across the stage and get a diploma even though there is no way you will ever earn one, and other such nonsense of tolerance and no punishment for bad behavior is much of the issue It isn’t access to guns that is remotely the issue in American society today LumRaiderFan, Englebert, Ty Cobb and 5 others 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
77 Posted May 21, 2018 Report Share Posted May 21, 2018 we once had a great hospital in Rusk Tx and many more like it for people like these shooters.

Blame the guns if you want, but whatever you do, never blame the evil that lies in each of our own hearts, and never demand from yourself and your children any type of moral excellence. High schools are just a microcosm of the problem in society and the real problem is that our society is immoral, hedonistic, narcissistic and godless.

Corporal Punishment = discipline. Long term solution, bring back discipline to schools, because so few see it at home. And parents that don’t like it can home school their little brats. I posted a time or two about about a news report (60 Minutes?) I saw many years ago about military schools scoring much higher than public schools in test. That report emphasized discipline. Here’s another by the NYT, but heaven forbid they mention discipline. This is the hidden content, please Sign In or Sign Up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
