Ya know what? I call it Blaze of Glory Syndrome.
These are kids that have clued into a way to direct their apparent mental illness into a socialogical pathogen.
These kids do not just, suddenly blow. They do exibit other troubled behaviors before they get to this point.
These kids have been exposed to just the right and rather common mix of humiliation, negative stimuli and denial of their pain. Oh, and exposure to guns. They hurt and they are mentally ill as I am sure many a parent can tell you, all teens are. :0}
These kids will keep doing this until something either way more awful happens or something is done. I'm afraid it's an intoxicating epidemic we are seeing here.
This is a fucking clinical mental disease. This belongs under the auspices of the CDC maybe just as much as it belongs in the hands of the constitution.
Do I think gun control is necessary? Hell yeah. The gun control we need is to not buy so many fucking guns. I get having one gun. But three, four, five? We're real human adults, not Charles fucking Bronson.
But moreso, so many parents have kids that are very troubled and they don't get them the counseling they need because there's this incredible stigma associated with mental illness.
I know, some of these Blaze of Glory boys have been on/off counseling or medication. I am stimied even more by the parents of teens who have kids messed up enough to see shrinks and STILL have guns in da house. How stoopid is that?
All I know is the signs are there before this shit happens. I believe that in my heart. We as a country have to address what we need to do about this obvious epidemic of mental illness. Cause in case you ain't aware, the adults are doing it too and they are keeping up with the kids pretty evenly.
Blaze of Glory Syndrome. It's gonna keep happening and happening and happening. What will you do about it?
