As for the topic on hand. This is a tragedy no doubt.

As many of you have said and I have said this myself, the family has failed. There is no doubt in my mind this has a lot to do with the problems we are facing in today's society.

Having just watched the end of the Warriors vs. Rockets game, one thing that I noticed is that everyone was on their cellphones. Obviously the majority of these people are posting pictures of themselves at the game on social media. Many of those in attendance were children. The days of doing something cool and being excited for school the next day to be able to tell your friends, are gone. Think of the impact this plays on a child who cannot be at that game but who wants to.
