        Rather than blaming the kids at this point, ask the important questions. What in our society allowed them to think that this was ok?

        One problem: Blaming society for an individual’s choices and actions. I’m not saying society doesn’t have a problem for sure, but individual accountability is often lacking.

        Agree. But if we look at the big picture, we see get a sense of where the issue originated. There will always be free will.

        Oh I totally agree. But I think free will should be understood as “free to choose your consequences, positive or negative.” Im@neevousnthat individuals are starting to believe that if they make a bad choice, their “group” will take the consequence.

        There is always that concern, I agree. I must be a systems girl. I blame @JeffreyGuterman for that. :)

        Example of normalizing and how it is demoralizing to humanity throughout society.

        Tough day for those kids. First suspension, now they will have to choose between competing job offers from the @NRA and @realDonaldTrump administration.
