I am talking about a fathers conviction for a shooting that the son did.
Now I believe that parents should bare some responsibility for what their children did bad. (I could make the case as to, which parent should be blamed when an adopted child does something wrong, the biological or the adoptive? And you know I have a valid argument there with regard to genetics that nobody wants to go to.)
But entirely blaming the parent enough to prosecute them? I don't know. There are bad kids out there. Kids that are bad to their parents, kids that are bad to everyone. And when they get older what do they say? They say that they were evil evil evil children! They admit that! You can't blame the parent in that case.
Can the primary influence to your childs bad behavior be the kid in the above paragraph? I think so.
A good father wants his son to know where that gun cabinet key is, if they even have a gun cabinet at all. Might just have one double barreled shotgun that sat in the corner of the closet for the entirety of that childs life and the child know he was not to touch that gun unless his father was there. That is me.
The bad kid is different than that. His father hid that gun cabinet key. But the bad child still knows where it is. And he invites friends over and wants to find that gun cabinet key and look at the guns with his friends.
A bad friend will steal. And attempt to rope you into stealing too.
However a bad friend can also help you fight off some bad bullies too.
So the rate of children with schizophrenia is spiking since Mary Jane has been legalized in certain states. And I can tell you that the voices a schizophrenic hears, are not in any way linked to their own human mind. That is a voice that is attempting to influence that child! And do you know what Jesus told us about those voices? He told us in no uncertain terms that those demons were really people. And so indeed blaming that father as the primary influence doesn't go anywhere the very important recognition of that religious FACT!!!! You can't really prove, in most cases, that the father was the primary bad influence because you don't want to prove otherwise than that?
*******'
And indeed with regard to children who go on shootings. I think what needs to be completely vetted out is, is there any element of retribution to their reasoning for the shooting? And they might not want to admit that there is? For example, are children raped by other children? Yes they are. So the black man sitting next to me at the suana who was a social worker would say that rape in such cases isn't enough to give someone the death penalty. Well perhaps. But if there is an element of retribution involved like that it is also an element of influence. Was it the primary influence and not that child's very own parents? That needs to be codified.
If I am a child on the playground and call another child a name? And that child gets its fathers gun and shoots me? Is that the fathers fault? And here is another element. I think that if you gave the child who believed themselves to be a responsible enough to bear a gun the death penalty you might end that chain right there. If that father had a child with the same woman or another woman what are the odds it would be bad too? Now, after all that, I am getting into a grey area of my belief system, something I would have to think about more. Okay, lets go this way. If you put that father in jail for the child going on a mass shooting are you going to allow that father to have conjugal visits? Whereby a woman could get pregnant. And he wont be there to raise that child because he is in jail.
Now as part of an extreme. So lets say that you proved the father was pure evil! That that father instructed the child to kill good people. And you send that father to jail. Should you also castrate him? Is that unconstitutional as cruel and unusual punishment? Seems so. But you really wouldn't want to give that father, that you defined to be just as per above, the opportunity to create another son exactly like the first bad one? Would you? Republicans say that all babies are to be kept regardless. In fact they want to prosecute soemone, a mother, who has an abortion. So they view this from a different perspective than I do. And indeed if you read through this you might determine that their thinking is inconsistent with their own thinking. And right there, isn't that a bad influence?

Oh wait, the black man social worker sitting next to me in the sauna of Elite Fitness centers. He told me that when they had like a substitute father for a bad child, like a big brother type father, that the child did better in life. But as soon as that big brother type left the child, the child reverted back to what they were. So indeed, weave that into the above, who is really the primary bad influence?
Whoops post script. I wonder if we will ever see a son ask to testify in his fathers defense for crimes that the son did? In other words the son mans up, in court, and says it wasn't his fathers fault.
