The increase of mass shootings coincides directly with breakdown of family

Plus social media gives everyone a voice but all the voices seem to further drown out everyone making them feel even less significant than before.

Breakdown of traditional family.

Lack of traditional faith.

Excessive screen time for children.

I agree and if you break it down farther it all corresponds with democrat policies and values

So why have violent crimes gone down?

Same logic, please.

The proliferation of guns

The welfare state completely destroyed the black family unit first, before anybody else. How? Here's how:

A nuclear family relies on a woman picking one man who can provide for her, and resisting her biological imperative to breed with the most alpha male she can find (this is true among all humans, it isn't specific to race).

In return for consistent sex, and knowing his children are his own, a man works and provides. This is how society is formed.

When low-quality women know THE STATE will provide for her and her offspring, the incentive to "settle" for a man and become his wife is nearly gone. Human women form harems around "alphas" when there is no shame or restrictions from doing so.

The end result is women with "baby-daddies" rather than husbands, and men who have little incentive to work or be disciplined. The pattern quickly becomes generational, and you can't fix it with "more programs" and more "welfare".

Every other ethnic group is headed down the same path in this country right now.

agree with much of what you said but this. If a person goes off and they've gotten no treatment people yell about needing to take mental health more seriously and hospitalize folks, but if they are on meds, then people want to blame the meds.

I’m more referring to things like adderall which is pretty much legal meth

I’m sure hanging a sign reading “In God We Trust” will solve those problems.
Divorce rate has been decreasing for years. Shootings have been increasing.
Anything else you guys want to throw at the wall?

We took prayer out of schools, God out of society, sent all the mothers to the workforce, hire liberals to educate our children, put violent video games in their rooms to entertain them, most kids live in broken homes, legalized drugs is sweeping the nation yet opioid drugs will soon be leading cause of death......I would continue but.....

Eh. I think the breakdown is a part of the whole problem from which the mass shootings also spring.

Lots of these shooters have intact families. Kip Kinkel, by all accounts, had a very loving family.

You can say that the parents had some issues, but now we’ve moved on from the breakdown of the family.
