CBS Turns Over News Broadcast To Man Who Blames School Shoot
CBS Turns Over News Broadcast To Man Who Blames School Shootings on Teaching Evolution and Abortion

Last night, the CBS Evening News turned their broadcast over to a man named Brian Rohrbough, who lost his son during the Columbine massacre. Mr. Rohrbough proceeded to blame recent school shootings on: 1) the teaching of evolution, and 2) abortion.

Transcript:

I’m saddened and shaken by the shooting at an Amish school today, and last week’s school murders.

When my son Dan was murdered on the sidewalk at Columbine High School on April 20, 1999, I hoped that would be the last school shooting.

Since that day, I’ve tried to answer the question, “Why did this happen?”

This country is in a moral free-fall. For over two generations, the public school system has taught in a moral vacuum, expelling God from the school and from the government, replacing him with evolution, where the strong kill the weak, without moral consequences and life has no inherent value.

We teach there are no absolutes, no right or wrong. And I assure you the murder of innocent children is always wrong, including by abortion. Abortion has diminished the value of children.

Suicide has become an acceptable action and has further emboldened these criminals. And we are seeing an epidemic increase in murder-suicide attacks on our children.

Sadly, our schools are not safe. In fact, we now witness that within our schools. Our children have become a target of terrorists from within the United States.

2. Course' the fact that we completely ignore mental illness in this society
and yet provide the 'wish they had been aborted' citizens with near unlimited access to guns and weaponry has nothing to do with it.

5. Maybe people who teach evolution in schools
should be classified as "enemy combatants" and subjected to secret detention and waterboarding. They do qualify as terrorists after all.

I'm sure glad that I've completely stopped watching MSM.

8. And so an Amish school was attacked?
I'm sure they spend several hours everyday discussing evolution and abortion at Amish schools. :sarcasm:
