Why does this happen?

20 people died on the shooting that occurred in El Paso

. What makes people feel the need to commit such a horrific thing? Keep the victims and their families in your prayers.

Lack of morals. We live in a time where morals are not taught. In fact look at what is on TV and in music. It's the exact opposite of moral behavior being pushed. The progressives are even pushing violence against anyone you disagree with. In our education system they are pushing immoral behavior on children on a weekly basis. People are being taught you cannot question anyone's beliefs or you are some kind of bigot. People that are mentally ill are being told they are normal.

This is what you get. You reap the harvest that you sow.

Hosa 10:12-13
12
Sow righteousness for yourselves,
reap the fruit of unfailing love,
and break up your unplowed ground;
for it is time to seek the Lord,
until he comes
and showers his righteousness on you.
13
But you have planted wickedness,
you have reaped evil,
you have eaten the fruit of deception.
Because you have depended on your own strength
and on your many warriors,

Mental instability with hate.

There should be public shaming of these people, dead or alive the media should make a point of calling these cowards out, instead of calling them the “allegged” shooter.

sick times we live in.

There are evil forces at work we don't fully understand.....But, you can be sure that gun control will be the follow up to these events. Not how to change people, just how to eliminate the tools of terror. And this is terrorism pure and simple. The innocent killed for an unknown reason... Edit...Beto o'rourke is already on the gun control narrative. So, didn't take long to go there.

It's why I carry almost everywhere I go.

Very sad, RIP

I dont believe hate is an accurate term to describe the motive. I believe we have created a culture of finger pointing and blame. Its very popular these days to find someone or something to blame for anything and everything and its this mainstream blame culture that has created this outcome. It does not wear political stripes either its a culture issue.

Stop blaming and start solving. I also believe in the butterfly effect and the best way to create good winds is being good to yourself and those nearest to you. If you focus your efforts on you and yours? Theres no one to worry about and no one to blame because your focus is on you and yours, not other people or other problems etc. Something like that is what we need to shift Western culture towards and pronto

Strange that in Texas of all places, there wasn't anyone firing back at the kid. You would think he would be swiss cheese by now.

I don't think the mass shootings are anything new or necessarily worse than in the past 75 or 100 years; but the "instant" news is different. Look at the chart going back to 1949:
