Conservative rocker Ted Nugent believes the Newtown, Conn., shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary School is the result of pervasive "spiritual bankruptcy" and a "politically correct" mentality in American culture.
Nugent penned a response to the Sandy Hook shooting, which left six school employees and 20 children dead, in an editorial for The Washington Times. In the piece, Nugent shifts blame from lax gun control, poor mental health programs, inadequate security at schools and violence in the media to the moral decay of society.
Via The Washington Times:
The ugly and dangerous truth is that we live in an embarrassing, politically correct culture that exalts and rejoices in the bizarre; aggressively promotes an anything goes value system; and vilifies, condemns and mocks traditional societal values and customs at every opportunity.
Weve embraced a culture of contempt that attacks the very institutions that make for a healthy and strong society, and then were shocked when it spirals out of control. The only thing Im shocked about is that anybody is shocked.
