@InspiredMindsULTD I don't really follow a religion, but I follow human morals which are help the needed, respect others, and be kind to others, Americans will never be united as a whole because we have such an ego to criticize others to raise our self esteem, but there are plenty willing to accept customs from other groups. Relating to this video, the shooter was just mentally ill. It had nothing to do with society or respecting others except for sympathy for the losses and their families.

@dclaver2 Well regardless of society and what other people choose to do as a Muslim I am to be kind to you and to respect you, feed you if you need me to and to provide shelter for you if you need me to and I choose to be this way towards people you and everybody else as this is what Islam teaches me. I reject following the majority in there falsehood. Most people may not get along but some do :)

@InspiredMindsULTD It's impossible to live in a world where we treat each other honorably, respect each other. It will never happen. As a child, you are told that we can but in reality, no one ever gets along.

[InspiredMindsULTD]

@dclaver2 i understand where your coming from, but do you doubt that if we as people treated each other honorably, respected each other, didn't persecute or oppress one another, that these school shootings and any other massacre would be at least less to none?

[dclaver2]

@InspiredMindsULTD the shooter was asian who had mental health issues since he was a child. The only way this could have been prevented is if the school payed more attention to this student because he showed signs of mental issues which the school had on record.

Allahs Prophet Muhammad said to honor your neighbor, and to honor your guest, and to speak good or remain silent. The fact is if we have better character towards another and treat people with respect and honor we could avoid things like this.
