CAL THOMAS COMMENTARY MAY 26, 2022
WHAT ADJECTIVE ADEQUATELY DESCRIBES THE HORROR UNLEASHED ON AN ELEMENTARY SCHOOL IN UVALDE, TEXAS ON TUESDAY? EVIL FOR SURE. THE ACT WAS PURE EVIL. THE SHOOTER, IDRNTIFIED AS AN 18-YEAR-OLD WAS POSSESSED BY EVIL, PERHAPS SATAN HIMSELF.
AS USUAL WITH A MASS SHOOTING SO MANY QUESTIONS ARE UNANSWERED. DID HE LEGALLY OBTAIN THE GUN, OR GUNS? WAS THERE A HISTORY OF MENTAL ILLNESS? BEFORE THE SHOOTING HE TAGGED A WOMAN IN LOS ANGELES ON INSTAGRAM TELLING HER WHAT HE WAS ABOUT TO DO. IT REPORTEDLY WAS A FEW HOURS BEFORE HE ACTED. WHY DIDN’T THE WOMAN CONTACT AUTHORITIES?
YES, SCHOOLS NEED TO BE HARDENED WITH AN ARMED OFFICER ON THE SCENE. IMAGINE HAVING TO SAY THAT. NOT SO LONG AGO A PARENT COULD SEND THEIR CHILD TO SCHOOL WITH LUNCH MONEY OR A BROWN BAG AND EXPECT THE CHILD TO BE SAFE AND RETURN HOME THAT AFTERNOON.
IT APPEARS ONLY HOME SCHOOLING IS A GUARANTEE AGAINST REPEAT OCCURRENCES, BUT WHILE SOME PEOPLE MAY SELECT THAT OPTION, MOST LIKELY WON’T, OR CAN’T.
PRAY FOR THE PARENTS AND RELATIVES OF THE TWO DEAD TEACHERS. PRAY FOR THE WOUNDED CHILDREN STILL IN HOSPITAL. AND PRAY FOR THOSE CHILDREN NOT HARMED BY BULLETS. THEY ARE SUFFERING, TOO. I’M CAL THOMAS.
