Yet another shooting in our own backyard!




Tuesday, September 17, 2013

     On September 16, 2013 America experienced yet another attack by an American citizen and Navy Veteran, 34 Year old Aaron Alexis.  President Obama ordered all flags, be flown half-staff, until Friday in light of Monday’s shooting.  It happened at the Naval Base San Diego in Washington DC and when the reign of terror was over twelve laid dead and eight others injured. 

     Aaron Alexis was a Navy Reserve Veteran who served his country from 2007 to 2011 and he was presently working as a civilian contractor, The Experts (a Defense Department Subcontractor).

“To find truth you must search within the ruins.”

     I’ve been watching the news and I was thinking, “Another crazy person has decided to play God by taking the lives of innocent people.”  It’s easy to call Aaron Alexis crazy because no sane person would do this.  The question we should all be asking ourselves is “why?” We need to find out the reason for these types of attacks on our country.  It’s time to dig further to find the truth behind the ruins.

     Is it because our mentally unstable people are no longer getting the help they need from the States’ they live in?  Are we closing our eyes and hoping for the best from our mentally ill children that grow up to be mentally unstable adults?  We need a viable solution to this ever growing problem within our society.  If not today, trust me when I say, “There will be a day when we’re forced to deal with this problem because I don’t believe it will just go away on its own.”

     I’m Lady PJ and information is power so be informed.  I would love to know what you think about the problem of mental illness in our society and what you think we can and should do to solve it.
