An unknown individual broke into a daycare center yesterday, and opened fire with an assault weapon, killing all the children and workers present. Investigators have no idea of the identity of the individual

That's all we know. From just this account, can you tell me whether the action of this individual was good or evil?

Brother, I understand your struggle, really I do. I don't particularly like the system at times either. The fact is though, God doesn't choose to intervene in His system each and every time a wrong is about to be committed. You may not like that, I may not like that, but that's the way it is.
