It's not the gun's fault.

The shooting in Newtown, Connecticut is a devastating event.
This massacre left 27 people dead.
20 of which are children.
These children will never have a full childhood.
These children will never become teenagers.
These children will never experience their first kiss.
These children will never become adults.
These children will never get married.
These children will never have children they can call their own.
These children will never age.
Lastly, they will never experience the sweetness of life.
And out of these children,
1 of them could have potentially become a presidential candidate that will make America better, get America out of debt, get America to progress even better.
1 of them could have potentially become the next Einstein, maybe he will figure a cure for cancer, maybe he will figure a cure for AIDS, maybe he will figure a cure for fucked up people like Adam Lanza.
All of them were born to be something great.
Even if they weren't born to be presidents or Einsteins, they are their parent's babies, they were born to be great nonetheless.
Picture this coming white christmas where presents are hidden underneath the christmas tree awaiting for their children to open them on Christmas morning. Most families do that.
But these 20 families will never ever see their children unwrap the presents this Christmas forever and ever.
Well for the other children, they'll be scarred for life. This will affect their life so much.
Put yourself in their shoes. Seeing your best playmate get shot. Seeing your little sibling get shot. This is devastating too.
These pictures touched my heart so so so very very very much:

This is from tumblr.
And this woman is my hero.
Selfless.

From tumblr too.
Devastating.
I can't even imagine myself losing my friends.

And tumblr again.
:'(

Once again, tumblr.
Lanza you were once a child too.....


Adam Lanza is the craziest guy ever. Massacres are bad, but killing little children are worse.
This cruel selfish guy even killed his mother before the others.
People say its the guns' fault.
This is incorrect. At least partially so.
I can kill even with a knife, kill with a car.
A gun is a tool just like a knife like a car.
It depends on WHO uses it.
There are drunk drivers that kill people on the roads yet there are job opportunities for chauffeurs.
There are crazy serial murderers that stab others with knives yet there are housewives that cut meat with their knife.
There are people like Adam Lanza shooting innocent young faces with guns yet there are people who have guns to protect themselves from others that could harm them.
Tools are just tools.
People control them, people use them.
Its not the tools' fault at all.
Yes guns are dangerous, but don't tell me cars and knives are as dangerous too.
Imagine Lanza walking into the school and stabbing everyone. The results are exactly the same as him shooting others. There are casualties in both cases..
There are no point in restricting the gun uses in America.
If so, go on, restrict everything that can potentially kill.
Even a pencil can kill by stabbing.
How many restrictions can there be?
These people in our society need help, profesional help.
What Obama needs to do about this is help the people instead of banning guns.
Teachers should be sent for training that will teach them to notice children that might have problems and these problems could lead to devastating events like The Lanza's Massacre.
There should be talks America-wide for parents on children psychology and family bonding. Families are important. Parents need to monitor their children's actions, understand them and listen to them when they have problems. They need to care for their children. They have to show that they care. Let the children know that they care. (Yes I repeated it 3 times paraphrasing because this is important.) This will allow them to have better understanding towards one another. Look at Lanza, all he wanted to do was kill his mum and this led to other children killed too. It started all from a family-related problem.
Lanza is crazy but humans weren't born crazy.
I'm sure Lanza was once sane and good.
Cursing him to rot in hell isn't very nice although all the sins he had were horrid.
The guy's dead.
The children are dead.
What we can all do now is not repeat that he should die in hell (He's already dead) but cherish and look out for our loved ones. They could be the next victims or the next Lanza... Your help could help 20 other children out there or even more.

I'm really grateful Singapore is not that bad
although there are certain black sheep 
like the guy that killed Huang Na
