We know some of the reasons why these individuals finally loose it and break down. We are aware how someone who experiences bullying, sexual harassment, child abuse, or something called emotional abandonment can resort to violence. Our young people are facing many challenges and have to cope with many stressors on a daily basis. We must not leave behind these students that are suffering and sad about their existence. We need to learn to identify their needs and to understand that each one is unique.
Let us pray as a nation for these victims and all others who loose their lives because of random acts of violence. We need to pray and we need to bring back the sanity.

A call to action would be good. But a call for prayer will alienate all the non-theists of the country. The action should be geared toward uniting, not alienating.
It feels good to write.
