On "VOTING FOR THE LESSER OF TWO EVILS" If godly people refuse to vote for the LESSER of 2 evils, godless people will vote to ensure you, your children, and your grandchildren get the GREATER of 2 evils. NEWSFLASH: You will be voting for a "lesser of two evils" until Jesus returns. Wise Christians can differentiate between a FALLEN candidate and an EVIL candidate. FALLEN CANDIDATE: Has personal sin in his / her life. EVIL CANDIDATE: Leads entire communities, states, and nations to sin.

Couldn't be me.

Bend Oregon shooter was armed with a shotgun. So the AR-15 weirdos need to sit down. A lunatic will use anything to harm people. A few hours later a lunatic in Portland Oregon started stabbing people at random. We have a mental health crisis and lunatics are not being locked up in Oregon to protect its citizens. This falls under lack of facilities to get these people help and off the streets.

My heart is with the victims of today’s shooting at Silver Rail Elementary School and their loved ones now facing the consequences of another school shooting in America. Once again we must ask how many schools must be shot up before Republicans agree to act to curb gun violence.

JUST IN: The man who stopped the school shooting in Bend, Oregon, has been identified as 36-year-old Kalub Giamanco. Giamanco, a carpenter, was reportedly driving home for lunch when he heard gunshots. After hearing the gunshots, Giamanco, who has a concealed carry permit, followed the suspect into the school. He then shot and killed 16-year-old John J Griffin moments after the teen opened fire into a special education classroom. Giamanco, who has two children of his own who attend the school, is family friends with one of the victims, a 7-year-old who uses a wheelchair and was shot in the face. The 7-year-old survived and is in the hospital. Three children at Silver Rail Elementary School were killed. Their ages are 5, 8, and 11. According to Giamanco's brother, Giamanco doesn't feel like a hero because he feels guilty for not being able to save more children. You are a hero, Kalub.

I played basketball and baseball in college. I wanted my kids to learn the lessons that youth sports is supposed to teach, the ones I learned with hand me down gloves and scavenged baseballs and the cheapest rubber basketballs you could find. I resented being guilted into $300 bats and $1200 sportsball weekends so I didn’t do it. The stupid comments, “don’t you want your kid to get a scholarship?” Etc… I was like, not really, maybe if they like it. I just want them to have fun, feel part of a team, experience winning and losing, doing their best and coming up short, getting a good bounce or a bad hop, etc and be better human beings. I played youth sports, mostly baseball, my dad’s sport—he was great! I started playing basketball in a youth league when I was 12. I played 1 year of JV basketball in HS and then I walked on at a small college and became a starter. I didn’t know how to do a 3-man weave. I loved the game, and I hustled, sure. But I had a pure jump shot and a 36 inch vertical. The talent was the only way I got that opportunity. Would never happen today. These kids get thrown into a sorting mechanism and the talented kids get more coaching, more floor time, better competition. The other kids get their parents to pay for a dream that will never come true. Look what they took from us.
