That being said, if we want to avoid/prevent these types of tragedies from occurring in the future we may want to act on former US President Obama's statement to take concrete steps to address the weapons and violence in our culture/nation/world. Let's start with the Irony of Mr. Obama's statements.
If GOD is all-powerful, all-knowing, and all-wise where is the wisdom in asking for wisdom from Him after He allowed those adults and children to be killed?
If we want to take concrete steps to prevent this type of tragedy in the future; not to mention reduce domestic violence, we might want to realistically begin dealing with the dysfunction in our system. We could begin by actively putting a halt to offshore tax fraud; said to be in the trillions of dollars. We could stop sacrificing the health and future of our children/citizens as God sacrificed Jesus; according to the story.
It's really too bad that Obama didn't ever have the chance; 8 years, or the power to do something about Health Care, Offshore Tax Havens, Unjust Tax System, etc. How many of his campaign promises did he break/keep? Hey, but at least he's set for life; way to go "Uncle Bom".
We could limit wealth to $100,000,000 per family. We could properly fund birth control while limiting children born per family; I'm number 5 out of six kids. We could provide sustainable living and working conditions for everyone; we've put men on the moon, after all. We could even give everyone equal access to health care; especially mental counseling, treatment and medication. Overall, it would be cheaper.
We could even train our people with realistic skills for actual jobs; rather than making a buck off of them and leaving them with no job and no way to pay their college debt. We could also reduce our immigrant migration to a realistic "legal" flow that keeps wages here livable, while also reducing the millions of dollars being transferred out of this country. Remember, cash must circulate in a local economy in order for that economy to thrive; it can't do that when millions of dollars are being sent back to their "home" countries.
Basically, it's like the picture above. Most of us (think actual numbers rather than percentages), including the majority of Blacks in this country, are on the dog's level because we don't have access (money) to the services that Mr. Obama and his family enjoy; we're not able to play on their level. Mr. Obama; like all politicians before him, made promises to get elected and failed to keep most of them. Kind of reminds me of God and Jesus; they never showed up when I was being abused as a child.
So, there you are... it is up to "WE" humans; in all of our varieties (natural or unnatural) to clean and straighten out our own messes.
Remember, You are the expert on you.
