FW: {UAH} ARE WE MAKING CHILDREN AND WOMEN SAFFER?
Allow us for giving an answer to your following question "As you read the tragedy of Texas, are the laws we have on the books really protecting the women and children or we are hurting them in the process?"
Sir Mulindwa as one without artificial insemination possibilities can't ensure protection and growth of a herd of cows by killing or take completely away genitors, the same applies when one takes out men from their family in order to protect women and children. These poor creatures are simply hurt by malignancy and cunning.

Friends
Again for the ionth time I am raising this question that has gone through my mind a million times when we get these domestic violent cases. We had a very bad night in Texas where a father took a weapon and murdered his own children and others, this man was still on a killing spree when a 15 year old girl with a bullet in her head called 911 to alert them on his next target. We have put so many laws on our books in the name of protecting the children and women, and we have used those very same laws to make sure that a message goes through to all men that they do not matter, men are guilty till proven otherwise, men don’t belong to a family, men are not a part of their children, but we have assured them that they are useless and only a banking machine. I have been in cities with no single men shelter. Try finding a counselor as a man and you will not be successful for all services are created for women and children.
As you read the post below on what has happened in Texas, let me remind you of two cases we have in Canada today, one case in Alberta where we have an Amber Alert now for 11 days and we cannot find the grandparent with their 5 year old grandson. Most Amber Alerts in this country get solved in 3 hours maximum, this alert is 11 days old and Police has started to back track and now looking at the city garbage dump. Where did they disappear to with their grand child? A second issue we have is right in Toronto or Mississauga where a man got lost with his two sons, I think one was 4 and another one 11, the wife said they were gone to a drive in cinema and never came back, I think two days ago they were identified as a family that got incinerated in the car. So the father with his two sons drove from the family and went to Barrie where the car got torched with all three in and all died. What is making me angry at this case is that Police is not even telling us what happened, citing family privacy, but they are quick to add that they are not looking for any suspect. So what exactly happened here? Did the father kill himself and torched the car with the kids? Did someone lock them into a car and torch it? Many of the men that drop themselves into the subway start by having family matters and they have absolutely no one to listen to their story, not Police not lawyers not judges and not counselors. For some very unknown reason every one piles up on the man and the man loses everything he has so worked for.
As you read the tragedy of Texas, are the laws we have on the books really protecting the women and children or we are hurting them in the process? Just asking.

Four children among six dead in Houston shooting; father in custody
SPRING, TEXAS — The Associated Press
Published Thursday, Jul. 10 2014, 12:24 AM EDTLast updated Thursday, Jul. 10 2014, 7:18 AM EDT
A father who authorities say went on a shooting rampage at a suburban Houston home, killing four of his children and two adults and wounding his 15-year-old daughter critically, has surrendered after a standoff and is in custody, police said.
Investigators plan to charge the man Thursday, a day after the rampage in a usually quiet middle-class subdivision in Spring, Texas, said Harris County Sheriff’s Deputy Thomas Gilliland.
Gilliland described the dead as two boys, ages 4 and 14; two girls, ages 7 and 9; a 39-year-old man; and a 33-year-old woman. The gunman and his wife are estranged, and she lives out of state, he said. All of the children were theirs, while two were adopted.
Gilliland said the wounded daughter identified her father as the gunman. After a brief chase, the man held deputies at bay for three hours before he surrendered.
The teenager was able to call 911 and later warned deputies that her father planned to go to her grandparents’ home to kill them, Gilliland said.
The sheriff’s department said precinct deputy constables were called to the house in the northern Houston suburb of Spring about 6 p.m. Wednesday and found two adults and three children dead. Another child later died at a hospital.
“It appears this stems from a domestic issue with a breakup in the family from what our witness has told us,” Assistant Chief Deputy Constable Mark Herman of the Harris County Precinct 4 Constable’s Office told reporters. He did not explain further.
Authorities also did not release the identities of the victims or the suspect, nor did they say whether the adults who were killed were related to the children or their father.
Gilliland said the teenager was in “very critical condition” at Memorial Hermann Hospital in Houston late Wednesday night.
After the 15-year-old survivor told deputies that her father was headed to her grandparents’ home, they were able to pass along the warning, he said.
Authorities said the teen’s information also helped them intercept the suspect. The suspected gunman then led authorities on a chase, with nearly two dozen deputy constables’ patrol cars following him into a cul-de-sac shortly before 7 p.m. There, the suspect’s boxed-in vehicle remained for hours. Finally, about 10 p.m., after hours of waiting and negotiations, the man emerged from his car, raised his hands and sank to his knees as deputies placed him under arrest.
During that time, Gilliland said, there were “two hours of constant talking with a man armed with a pistol to his head and who had just killed six people.”
Gilliland described the man as in his 30s with a beard “and cool as a cucumber.” He said that when he and other officers first approached, the man was “just sitting in his car looking out at us.”
“This concluded the way we wanted it to,” Gilliland said after the surrender.
Said Precinct 4 Constable Ron Hickman: “He was in the car for 3 1/2 hours. He was worn down like the rest of us. He came out of the car without resistance.”
Danna Stevens, 75, and her husband, Texas Stevens, live four doors down from the home where the shooting happened but weren’t home at the time. She said she didn’t know her neighbours well and that they had moved into the subdivision about a year ago.
