We Don’t Have A School Shooting Problem; We Have A Fatherlessness Problem
In an article recently published by NewBostonPost Eli Crane, Founder and CEO of Bottle Breacher explains his thoughts and reasons on why we continue to have mass shootings, and what is a huge common factor in the people committing these crimes.
"I personally don’t believe that there is one black-and-white answer. I do, however, believe that one of the biggest and most important reasons we continue to see this breed of unprovoked and unnecessary violence is largely being overlooked: We have a masculine initiation crisis caused by a lack of strong and present fathers in this country." - Eli Crane
As news of mass shootings continually surface, a trend is being realized with them. Read more about this theory here.
"26 out of the last 27 most deadly mass shootings were done by boys without fathers. This isn’t a coincidence. It’s more like a smoking gun."
Eli discusses this statistic and more in his article.

6 年Needs to read "Dads." Fathers are a dime a dozen; everyone has one. But without a true Dad to guide a young man, he is often lost. Love a momma, don't get me wrong, but ask any man who grew up without a Dad and he will tell you what he wished he had. So, what do we do about it? We reach those hurting kids. We provide compassionate intervention. We can never be their Dad, but we can help fill those voids in a wayward soul before desperation and final loss of hope set in. #stoptheshooter #activeshooter

6 年Took my son to have a Father / Son breakfast for his birthday yesterday here in Southern California and one comment he made to me was - "Dad, did you notice that the restrooms has a room for women and a room for all genders? But no restrooms labelled for MEN?!". Thank you for bringing this topic to the attention it deserves.
