BUCHANAN ISSUES STATEMENT ON
COLORADO SHOOTING
"The massacre at the high school in Littleton, Colorado, is a tragic
reflection of the dark side of American society. About this act of
unmitigated evil, we must ask: What was it in the upbringing or education
of these two boys that failed to instill in their souls a conscience that
discerned right from wrong, and good from evil? What was it in our
polluted and poisoned culture that suggested to these dead souls that
violence, murder, and suicide was a valid expression of their resentment?"
"At Littleton, yesterday, America got a glimpse of the last stop on that
train to hell she boarded decades ago when we declared that God is dead,
and that each of us is his or her own god who can make up the rules as we
go along. I pray for the families of those who lost loved ones."
