I am completely embarrassed by the US media. No one is discussing it on any of the Sunday shows. Shame on you all.

There was a school shooting this week in case they didn't notice. A school shooting that has completely shocked the entire community and has one of the most successful Native American Indian tribes quaking.

The survivors are still fighting for their lives, but, at least there are survivors. I think all of them are brain injuries. That is a tough one, but, since President Obama provided funding for the investigation in to the brain to find out what we didn't know, but, need to know the young folks will have a fighting chance at life. President Obama provided that funding because there have been so many returning from over a decade of war with maiming injuries he could look the other way. Quality of life. President Obama believes in quality of life.

This is a turning of the tide incident. The USA is so awash with guns many people fear their homes will be invaded by others that will kill them. The fear of home invasion is feeding itself now. People are seeking to understand their guns without really understanding what the country is going through in dealing with massive amounts of weapons within our borders. They know they believe guns are the answer to their worries, but, they don't stop to realize how unregulated guns are to the point of saturation. 

Saturation means there are guns for everyone, even those that will conduct home invasion. The crisis with drug cartels in Mexico is due to the fact the USA is saturated with guns. The guns in Mexico come from the USA. Saturation of guns in the USA means shipments to those that conduct uprising and violence. Yes, the current tragedy in Syria and Iraq occurred because of USA small arms as well as military equipment and munitions. The USA, when it comes to armaments, has become a global menace. 

Paula Hatch Satiacum and her son Brandon Hatch are overcome with emotion during an interview after several of their relatives were involved in a shooting at Marysville-Pilchuck High School in Marysville, Washington. "I feel very distraught, like it's a nightmare," says Ms. Satiacum.

...“While poverty, (click here) joblessness and other social ills have helped push Native American youth suicide rates to more than double the national average, the Tulalips are among the country’s most financially successful, sophisticated and best-run tribes,” the Seattle Times reports. “The tribes’ casino and retail developments help drive Snohomish County’s economy, and its government has won awards from Harvard University.”
Friends and family say Jaylen Fryberg took part in tribal ceremonies, including drumming. A slim youth, he wore his black hair long and pulled back.
The tribes are officially described as “successors in interest to the Snohomish, Snoqualmie, Skykomish and other allied tribes and bands signatory to the 1855 Treaty of Point Elliott.”...
