Oregon and other senseless killings: Who’s to blame?

It was only last week that Pope Francis visited the United States with aspirations of hope and healing for this world, then on Thursday October 1, 2015, a mentally disturbed gunman opened fire at Oregon's Umpqua Community College.  According to Fox News6 Now, the gunman, who was not a Christian, asked the individuals what religion they claimed.  Those who affirmed Christianity were
shot.

Pope Francis and his visit to the US

Since the 1800’s there have been too many school shootings in the United States, not to mention movie theatres and other venues.  According to the Today Show, there have been 31 mass shootings since Columbine and the statistics are startling.  If you missed the show on Friday, take a look at the findings.

Who is to blame?  The President and government are tired of the holocaust and want to ban guns.  The NRA says that their organization, and what it stands for, is not to blame.  So who or what is the cause of all the senseless crime against humanity?

In Christianity it is taught that the devil is the one who is at the helm of all the confusion and unrest.  When the Pope came to the US to bring the people a vision of hope for their future, the devil became agitated.  He once again, sought and found someone to use for his destructive mannerisms.

God has given man the free-will to live his life upon this earth.  Man chooses what path he will take, if it will be a path to goodness or a path to evil.  The shootings, that make no sense, are not of God, but of the one who roams this earth causing death and destruction.  God wants us to know Him as our Father.  God doesn’t want anything bad for His children.

Prayer & concern needed in senseless deaths

In the wake of so many senseless deaths that have occurred in Jacksonville Florida, there is a greater need for prayer and a higher concern for our youth who may be subject to people who act before they think.  From the “Stand Your Ground Law”, to “Vehicular Manslaughter”, or just plain “Murder”, there have been numerous acts of violence that left parents without their children and the guilty parties serving time in prison or walking the streets to live their lives.

Trayvon Martin

Do you recall the criminal cases that happened a little more than a year ago?  The families have not forgotten.

• Parents of Trayvon Martin send thank you letter to son’s supporters
• Somer Thompson killer is finally sentenced, but not to death
  
  • Makia Coney's murder case, update July 2012
• Jordan Davis is killed & another statistic for the 'Stand Your Ground Law'
• JaNay Jackson is killed as a van plows into her bedroom

Jordan Davis

Some people are upset and want to blame racial profiling, but some of the crimes listed above were not White on White, or Black on White, or Hispanic on Black crimes; they were crimes committed by people who were not thinking before they acted.  None of the offenders were charged with premeditated murder.

Travon Martin will be remembered in love, but what about the other deaths that have taken children away from this earth too soon?  After the news media have moved on to other cases, what about the families who hold the memory of their loved ones deep in their hearts?  What about the crimes that are committed and there is no consolation?  What about the families who are left behind?  What is the solution?

JaNay Jackson

The answer is not in having a gun to protect oneself; nor is it in a “vigilantly movement”.  The only answer is to turn to God in times like this.  2 Chronicles 7:14 “If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.”  Heal the hurt, heal the confusion, heal the injustice and heal the people of this land.  We tried everything else and it’s not working.
