After today's events have we not grown tired of what we have created? We have all created a society that has no conscious. I do realize that not everybody falls under this category but for the most part people don't care about the other individual the way they should. Honestly, when you see another person walking down the street and it is obvious they need more too eat or are on hard times; how much do you care?
I will be honest, most of my life I didn't give a damn. In fact I would say that I have lived the imperfect life under most people’s judgment. At the same time though, I do realize that I can change myself and the way I think. The older I get the more I realize that the help we give others is what is most important in our lives. I have come to realization, over my short time here, that what we put in the life of others will be put into our own.
Today, many people were killed; due to what? I imagine the person behind it would be a self depressed person that wanted to take vengeance on the people who had made him feel this way. The question that will be on most people's mind will be what made this person feel this way. Was it people picking on him, was it people making him feel not included, etc...But the real answer is that we create lines in our society that make others feel inferior.
I do not mean that to be an excuse to what happened today as I have felt the same, as I am sure others have felt, and have never reached to those extremes. What I mean by that is we try to make others feel inferior to make ourselves feel better. Too many times we put down others to make ourselves feel better about our own lives. Why is it we want to feel so inferior to our own brothers?
It is our own human nature that makes us feel that way. It is our own self doubts that make us feel that way. It is the own fact that we all want to be better than our own brother than makes us feel this way, but the question remains what ticks that clock?
The answer is simple; we have forgotten about God and what life is about. We have taken God out of our schools and society to where it doesn't matter. I understand that this country is suppose to separate God and country; but those laws were created to make sure nobody was persecuted for their beliefs. Those laws where not created to take God out of our everyday lives.
I not only question what we are putting forth to our children but what we put forth as a society. Is it not time we rise to the challenge and make this society what our fore fathers wanted it to be?

Great job!
By the way, you wrote,
"I understand that this country is suppose to separate God and country;"
Actually, sepatation of church and state is not in the constitution.
