I am curious as to why when something like this happens, one of the first things someone will say is, "it is because they took prayers out of school"....

This kind of thing has been going on a long time in schools, the only difference is it has went from fists, to knives, to guns and drugs.
And you will find alot of the persons who commit these acts go to church every Sunday....

I feel sorry for the families of those hurt in these horrible shootings, do you think we can concentrate on them, instead of who, what or why caused it?

Sorry, no offense to anyone, just my opinion. When we had the shootings here in Arkansas, the first thing that was brought up was the prayers in school excuse, and you can't get more bible-belt than Arkansas, so that is no excuse. And I was raised with loaded guns in the house, and I have never went on a shooting rampage, so that is not an excuse either.
