SCHOOL SHOOTINGS

Once again we are saddened by a school shooting. The tragic story of 6 Northern Illinois University students being shot on campus makes me wonder where is this world going.
I sit here and wonder what is making young people resort to such violent acts. Is it drugs? Pressures from life? Lack of family upbringing?
As I age and appreciate each day I have on this earth more and more, I'm at a loss as to why anyone young with a full life ahead of them has to give up on society and check out in such a violent way. We live in a world where hard work and dedication can reward us in so so many ways. To be young and have a world of opportunities available is such a wonderful thing.
So i question the world, why is it this way? I don't have the answers, I just hope and pray something can be done to end this awful trend.
