Title: Shooting in Pittsburgh
Post by: kjstrukel on October 28, 2018, 05:55:34 am
I was sickened to hear about the mass shooting in Pittsburgh yesterday.  It is so senseless and scary.   My prayers are with the victims and their families and for our country.

I am so sick of hearing about these senseless shootings. It happens so much now that people are becoming desensitized and nothing is changing to really help prevent them from happening.

The one that really hurts is the 97 year old victim who survived through the horrors of the Holocaust only to be senselessly murdered in this fashion for being who she is.

We should accept more senseless murders under the trump administration! It seems like every week something sensational, outrageous, crazy, maddening, murderous happens! Trump’s reign will make America desensitized to the horrors happening on a daily bases! Soon it’ll be....oh well just another rape, murder, death.Just like common news!

I agree, it is happening so often now. It seems like even more than once a month there is another shooting. A few years ago, it was fairly infrequent. I can't understand why the increase now. Why so much intolerance. I can't say our current president makes matters any better...  ::)

I dont support politics,but who was president when Mansons clan went on their murderous spree?It was Nixon.

Who was president on 9/11?Bush.

These times were told of long ago.We can take precautions,but you just might be in wrong place at wrong time.

This is only tip of iceberg.If any of us are fortunate enuff to be around when God crushes this wicked world into oblivion we can have the hope of peace under a righteous government someday.

Now you know what it is like to come face to face with one of Satan's Sons of Perdition and it will get worse no matter who is president.

How sad. They're all sad, but especially when it's at a church or school. I didn't even hear about this one on the news until a day later.

Hello! :D :)

I'm so sorry to hear about that, may their souls be at peace may they find some kind of retribution. :'( :sad1: These days you never know you can be out shopping and then a shooting can happen and take your life. Life here can be so sad now and again. :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose:

There it is plain as day in the bible.Increase of lawlessness and critical times hard to deal with with the love of the greater number cooling off.Instead of worrying about who the president is they should heed Jesus words.I guess many dont care about truth.

It will come down to whose side are we on.Pretty obvious when Jesus said his kingdom was no part of this world he wasnt kidding.The history of man has backed up this scripture....

“The whole world is lying in the power of the wicked one.” (1 John 5:19)

I agree.  I cannot believe how many people think that the hateful things he says and does have nothing to do with more and more of these things happening.

The thing is, Joe-Mr. NRA, that we are asking for "common sense"' gun control policy.  And, you see, you need to unpack your common sense when you decide to pack a gun.  If you don't have common sense-and it's looking like there isn't a lot of it in the ole USA anymore-then there's no way you need to have access to a gun.  Common sense equals the right to have a gun.

Everyone is tried and drawn out by their own desire.When the desire becomes fertile one acts upon it.Yes we can be influenced as this wacko says he was by Trump.But if he had common sense and knew whoever draws the sword dies by it maybe he would have thought twice before he pulled trigger.

Then again mental sickness might be so far gone in some of these twisted minds i will let God judge them why they did what they did.

The 'wacko' state of mind goes all the way back to Cain who brutally killed his brother Able. The further away we go from perfection, the worse it becomes. 

I think you already know this.  lol

One of the ways that I draw comfort is knowing that the madness we see going on all over the world was, indeed, prophesied.  We know that we can fully trust what the Bible tells us.

Any time anything horrible happens, I reflect on the verse - "And just a little while longer..."

You know the rest.    :)

Yes i do Bet.Jesus also said to know that deliverance is near when you see all these conditions happening.Its tough i know to feel that way but its still good to have the hope.

And how can i forget the woe Satan and his hordes cause being thrown out of heaven in 1914 and the woe it causes on earth.Rev 12:12

For those of us who believe in God the Creator of this universe. Let us pray this prayer fervently and frequently:

2 Chronicles 7:14 King James Version (KJV)
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.

Horrible tragedy. So many of the victims were elderly. Guy had to be real scum to want to kill elders in a place of worship. My prayers are for the victims & their families.

I hate it for a number of reasons, obviously.  But I hate how this, and other events, are made into hatred towards a specific group.  We know what happened, but it's just a crazy person.  That crazy person does not represent the entire population.

Yet another shooting in this country. It is becoming such an epidemic. In any event, my thoughts and prayers are with the families of those that lost their lives. Hopefully, justice will be served against the perpetrator.

Nothing is going to change. It is a people and a heart problem. The kids have been raised to believe the world revolves around them and they can do whatever they want to and nobody can tell them no. People can't handle it when they realize the world isn't cotton candy and flowers.
