As I watched the documentary The Path to Violence in February on PBS, I came to the conclusion that violence in our society is not based on one failure but many. In the 1960s, teacher-led prayer was taken out of public schools, and in the 1970s, abortion was legalized. We now are reaping the bad fruit from those choices.

We have taught our children that a life is of no value while removing the Ten Commandments from public places. Combined with this are the violence in movies and on television and the acceptance of perverted lifestyles

Should we expect any different result? I pray that America will wake up.
