I AM ADAM LANZA'S MOTHER (A MOST IMPORTANT READ - PLEASE...READ IT)
http://clashdaily.com/2012/12/i-am-adam-lanzas-mother/
Dec 15, 2012
It should come as no surprise that the rate of mass shootings at schools and in other public places is increasing.
The surge has nothing to do with guns, which have been widely available
in the U.S. for years. Gun control laws have been increasing. Instead,
there is a direct correlation between the increase in violence and the
gradual degradation of morals, ethics and parenting. We are cultivating
mental illness in our society.
Parents are allowing television and video games to increasingly babysit their children, even though both have become full of gratuitous violence. A New York Times study of rampage killers found that six of them were into violent video games. Research shows that violent video games and television desensitize people and promote aggressive behavior, despite claims to the contrary. A research scientist at the University of Michigan found
that television was responsible for 10% of youth violence. Parents
today are neglecting their children, and when things don't go well,
rushing to get divorced instead of trying to work things out first.
Children suffer emotionally when their parents fight or split up.
Parents are ignoring their children so much they don't even see the
warning signs that something might be wrong. The New York Times study found that 63 of 100 rampage killers had made threats of violence before the event.
Parents are no longer taking their children to church, where they would learn stability and morals. Fewer than 20% of Americans now regularly attend church. Every year there are 3000 fewer
churches across the U.S, even though the population is growing. God and
morality have been taken out of the public schools and replaced with
political correctness and non-judgmentalism. “Public virtues” are no
longer taught in today's schools. People who do not attend church are more likely
than churchgoers to
have stress and to be less optimistic about the future. When parents
split up and there is no father to take the children regularly to
church, the children are much less likely to become regular churchgoers than if their mother regularly takes them.
The New York Times study
found that at least half the killers in 100 rampage attacks showed signs
of serious mental health problems. 48 killers were formally diagnosed
with mental illness, often schizophrenia. The mentally ill used to be
kept in hospitals, where they were not a danger to others. Beginning in
the 1950s in California, the ACLU successfully filed lawsuits to take
the mentally ill out of hospitals, known as “deinstitutionalization.” By
the 1980s, most state-run mental health hospitals had closed.
Now, most of the mentally ill are out on the streets or in prison. The laws have been changed to state
that the mentally ill cannot be hospitalized until they've already
attacked someone. As a result, more mentally ill people are incarcerated
than in hospitals, with the seriously mentally ill three times more
likely to end up behind bars than hospitalized.
More than half of all people in
prison report that they have mental health problems, and more than 40
percent of the seriously mentally ill have been in jail or prison. A
study at the University of South Florida found that the highest users of
criminal justice and mental health services were 97 people who had been
arrested 2,200 times. It is ludicrous that those 97 people are not
contained for their safety and others in mental health hospitals.
The 22-year old Oregon shopping
mall gunman who killed two people earlier this week is sadly typical of
the rampage murderers the decay of society has spawned. He had this
written on his Facebook page, "I'm the conductor of my choo choo train.
I may be young but I have lived one crazy life so far." One of his
friends said he raised himself; his mother died at childbirth, he never
met his father, and he left his aunt's home at age 14.
The left will use the high level
of emotion stirred up by this past week's two rampage killings to push
through new gun control laws. Liberal New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg called
upon President Obama to enact tougher gun control laws immediately
after Friday's mass shooting at an elementary school in Connecticut. Yet
demanding more gun control laws will not solve anything. Gun control
advocates have already increased the number of laws around the country
requiring background checks, waiting periods for purchases, and tracking
of firearms. Many of the rampage killers obtained guns illegally. If
they can't obtain guns, deranged individuals will find other ways to
commit mass murders – by setting fires, making bombs or running people
over with vehicles. One day after the
shootings in Connecticut, a man in Beijing stabbed 22 primary school
students with a knife.
The left should not be allowed to
dominate the dialogue after these tragic events with a red herring
argument for gun control, in order to sneakily distract Americans from
blaming them for what they have wrought. Americans who believe in
traditional values must speak up and denounce the degradation of
society's morals as the root of the problem behind these rampages, or
the tragedies will continue to escalate.

ALABAMA PASSES BILL TO ALLOW AUTISM THERAPY DOGS IN SCHOOLS!
http://www.care2.com/causes/alabama-passes-bill-to-allow-autism-therapy-dogs-in-schools.html
How great! This is wonderful. I'm a great fan of animals as therapy...for just about everything, but I have seen what dogs can do with autistic children.
So Alabama - you made a great choice!

REMEMBER THE DUELING BANJO DUET IN "DELIVERANCE"? HERE'S THE REAL STORY BEHIND IT
Be sure to follow those little arrows that say "More". The story goes that these are real people - the boy is autistic. It happened at a gas stop. I never knew this before.
And then I read Wikipedia, because I wanted to know what happened to that boy...http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Billy_Redden

Hollywood smoke and mirrors. That's all folks!

More on autism and the lack of it in the unvaccinated
This is very troubling to me.
Big pharma is keeping us in the dark about what goes into vaccines, and not cautioning physicians and health departments to discuss the risks with the parents of their patients, or the patients themselves.
There is also this problem. If you do not allow your children to be vaccinated, often they will not be allowed to go to school. If they don't go to school, they will be truant, and the parent(s) responsible.
Such terrible parents have their children removed from the home and placed in foster care, and the parents could face jail time.
I remember a polio epidemic when I was very small. It was popular opinion in my corner of the world that polio came from polluted sea water. The water I swam in was a chemical green soup, with sewage, garbage, and other human detritus floating on the incoming tide. But everyone did it. Someone came up with the idea to use camphor squares as a deterrent to the illness. On my undershirt, pinned with a tiny gold safety pin, was my camphor square in a little pouch. I remember standing on the beach with my undershirt on, and not going into the water.
I was terrified of receiving a shot at school. They were administering the Salk vaccine. I don't believe I ever received a shot for polio. I remember getting a smallpox vaccination, but not the Salk, and I never got the sugar cube, either.
Like many new parents, my son got his vaccinations. He's ok. But the problem is - what happens to his health in the future if these vaccinations are time bombs. I have a photo of my granddaughter - so tiny - with colorful Band-Aids on each chubby thigh after a trip to the pediatrician. What will happen to her and my grandson down the road?
Personally, I distrust a lot of them. As more information leaks out, will you believe it or not?
As parents, do we fight the system or go with the crowd? Do we have the right to say no to vaccines we question and insist or resist the pressure from the public school system and others?
Parental rights should be sacrosanct, especially about the medical care of a child. Don't you agree?
