I really think Google can read our thoughts or the algorithm picked up on a podcaster's prayer.
The Bible Scripture passage came to my mind this morning about taking the log out of our own eyes before removing the splinter from someone else's eye.
It entered my thoughts in 1998 on school violence prevention and then again this morning after listening to a podcaster who opens with prayer. I like her openings. She is a recent find due to the AK trial. She was in the courtroom during the trial. No link is here for her, but I bet I will share one in the future.
These two links are about a death that happened in 2019. One victim. Two teenagers in jail. The weapon was not a gun or knife. The scene was an Ohio park. School event.
Connect dots to the AK situations. Do you see the patterns, beside dead people?
Listen to the news report, then listen to the podcasters commentary. I know nothing of these podcasters. They use expletives but we are all adults. They do not race bait. It is common sense commentary.
Mothers reactions: Compare to the mother of AK. Same? Denial? Unbelief? Anger stage of grief?
My book explains how the mother reacted to my concerns in prevention. We can all be in denial about our own kids. That could be a deadly choice.
These kids took a plea deal which is what many thought AK should have been guided to do. This 2020 plea deal did not result in calls for vengeance on anyone else. Unfortunately, the same can not be said of the reactions to the outcome of the AK trial.
News report: I do remember this case. Not a school setting, but teenagers. Names are given and ages 17.
The podcasters: Interview of the killers. No faces blotted out. The commentary is important.
Per the time on this post, it says 4 days ago but the events are from 2019 to 2020. Masks in some segments for Covid. (That to me shows a problem.)

I hope this helps people understand. Prevention is worth a pound of cure. Any calls for banning logs?
