Those of you who have been following this blog from the beginning are aware of the 5-Ws (WHO, WHAT, WHEN, WHERE and sometimes WHY). You also know that I am often intrigued by the WHY. Well, I am asking WHY again.
In the past year we have had the Aurora, Co shooting, the Newtown,CT shooting, the Steubenville, OH high school rape case, the CA high school rape and subsequent suicide and the high murder rate in Chicago, IL at the hands of gangs. Now we have the Boston Marathon bombing. What do all these have in common? Perpetrators that are young males. My question is why are these young males perpetrating these heinous acts? What is happening that these violent acts are occurring with such frequency? HOW do we fix the problem? If we can find the WHY, then we can start working on the HOW.
