The Oklahoma shooting of Christopher Lane

 

Australian ex-change student; going to college in Duncan, Oklahoma gets shot while jogging? The national media, who is only scratching the surface of the problem, blaming the boys who shot Lane, I agree the charges for all three of the killers should be equal charges, across the board. 

This happened after the Zimmerman verdict to be clear to the reader: As sad as, it is, our own justice system that may have played a role in this murder too?

The problems are much deeper than what’s being told in the Christopher Lane shooting. All the media is trying to talk about is the “double standard” charges of the murder and that there is something odd going on in our justice system in America?

It’s true the “American justice system” is so corrupted, that they can’t give justice correctly to the ones who do heinous act of violence it seems.  With a justice system carving the future for America, it only seems to be a bleak one at best?

We can talk about the previous murders in this country all we want? But until the main problems in America continue to go unaddressed we’re just spinning our wheels! I’m taking about gun control. A lot of growing teens really believe that they don’t have a future in America? Because our jobs keep getting sent overseas and the remaining companies in America only cut back employees and the population only grows. Yes, this all effects are teen hopes for a future and with making guns so available by our government laws; it invites heinous acts of violence to be an easier option for our teens and people with mental disabilities to act against America.

We have to address this problem at the top before these kinds of problems can be considered to be resolved?

“Gun Control,” is America’s number one problem.

I don’t think people can be trusted with guns anymore in America there to irrational, and it should be illegal to purchase them in this country. This country is way too violent and way too suppressed, for that to be a right! What’s worse is our justice system and corporations in America lead the way on violence!

We just look like a bunch of criminals; to the rest of world? From the ones running America; all the way down to the punks who, shot Christopher Lane.

  That’s the sad truth of the matter right there.

Now how does America go about fixing this problem? It all starts with law making, but there’s too much money in corporations and gun groups that will stop are legislator from passing harsh gun measures. Unless our American legislators stand up against gun advocates groups these; “Christopher Lane murders and Sandy hook” will continue in American…

With America’s great history of wars, this is the war America will go into history not winning, the war at home!
