Discussion: Reports: Kansas Workplace Shooter Identified As Cedric Ford

Somehow, some way, the sane people in this country need to figure out a process for hobbling the NRA once and for all. Being able to sue the gun industry is a good first step.

That we’re rapidly becoming numb to “another day / another mass shooting” is untenable…

Everyone has shitty days and shitty moments. The problem is when you start surrounding yourself with devices that allow you to transform those crappy days into mass murdering rampages.

Guns escalate and cause deaths. In every situation. The stats are extremely clear. They will take what may be a frustrating situation and turn it into one of life and death.

And for what? So a few idiots’ desires to get their jollies by shooting at pieces of paper in a gun range is satisfied? So these fools can walk around feeling manly?

The reality is guns have absolutely no place in civil society. The fact that the constitution mentions the right to be armed is almost completely reflective of society 200+ years ago and has no bearing to today’s world.

Well, a cop did show up eventually.

Eventually.

All he was doing was employing his God-given right, codified by the Founders, to pack an AK-47. The collateral damage should hereafter be considered “Freedom Spray.”

Aha. Well the Republicans will be all over this one! They will tie the blame to liberalism, Socialism, single-parent families, Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton, teachers’ unions, and Public Television! Oh, and Obama’s coming to take our guns!

My problem is I can’t figure out if he’s a terrorist or not. I mean, he’s not white so he could be. On the other hand he’s not Muslim so it’s very confusing.

"In Kansas, Ford had been convicted of domestic battery, drug possession, theft, and parole violations. Before that in Florida he was convicted of fleeing from police, battery, and grand theft. Yes, he is a convicted felon."

Beginning at a young age a significant population of American children are CONDITIONED to embrace what the late American recording artist and Childhood Trauma victim Tupac Shakur describes as “Thug Life”, an acronym for “The Hate U Give Little Infants Fvcks Everyone”.

How many more generations of supposedly caring, loving, concerned, compassionate Americans will KEEP THEIR MOUTHS SHUT while witnessing VIOLENCE and other anti-social behaviors committed by depressed, angry, frustrated, unpredictable, sometimes suicidal (NY Times May 18, 2015 - Rise in Suicide by Black Children Surprises Researchers) teens and adults full of rage and resentment for being introduced to a childhood of pain & struggle by grossly immature maternal caregivers who WILLFULLY IGNORE their parental responsibility and duty to their children, as well as their moral, ethical and societal obligation & duty to their neighbors and community to place the emotional well being of their children ABOVE ALL ELSE!!

Why is American society permitting a substantial population of teen girls and women to selfishly and willfully deprive our Nation’s most vital, valuable and precious resource from experiencing and enjoying a SAFE, fairly or wonderfully happy American kid childhood that usually results with a kid maturing into a reasonably happy responsible teen and adult respecting themselves and their neighbors?

Why aren’t we arresting parental caregivers or crafting laws to protect young children from irresponsible, immature maternal caregivers creating damaged human beings who far too often populate our criminal justice and prison systems after causing harm to a peaceful neighbor?

IRRESPONSIBLE MOMS NEED TO BE HELD CRIMINALLY ACCOUNTABLE FOR FAILING TO PROPERLY NURTURE THE CHILDREN THEY CHOOSE TO INTRODUCE TO LIFE!!!

I’d like to know who is TAKING ACTION to protect our Nation’s most vital, valuable and precious resources from experiencing Childhood Trauma at the hands of grossly irresponsible CRIMINAL & CRIMINALLY NEGLIGENT PARENTING???

I’m sorry to pick on moms, though since ancient times they are the primary caregivers we look to keep us safe, cared for and loved right from our start.


Doctors Ross and Dietz offer insights into how our Early Childhood Development plays a key role in determining the type of individual we mature into.

Robert K. Ross, MD, President and CEO of The California Endowment, addressed inmates at Ironwood State Prison offering a compelling overview of the role that exposure to childhood trauma plays in the lives of emotionally troubled and chronically ill American teens and adults.

At 2:12:25 in this documentary about Mafia hit-man and victim of Early Childhood Trauma/Abuse, Richard “The Iceman” Kuklinski, Dr. Park Dietz explains why young Richard most likely developed into a emotionally disturbed, paranoid, cruel, heartless teen and man who did not give a frig about anyone else, including his wife and kids.
