Cowards in the face of evil

What caused the killing of those six people at The Covenant School?

Evil, pure and simple.
A word that today's Presbyterians, unlike John Calvin (a man many of todays Presbyterians have forgotten), cannot speak.

Can the people of Covenant Church and School squarely identify, confront, and oppose the evil that caused Audrey Hale to commit the horrible, despicable, evil act she did against them?
Can they look that evil in the face, identify it, and firmly oppose it?
Absolutely not.

They are too busy being cowards.
Disclose the evil that led Hale to kill their children and associates?
Oh no.
It would retraumatize us.

John Calvin was not a coward in the face of evil.
He confronted it and addressed it.
You should do likewise.

For cowardice at its worst, listen to the weasly, cowardly words of Brent Leatherwood:

Speaking to whoever in law enforcement released some of Hale's depraved writings, Leatherwood said:

"you [the person in law enforcement] have now allowed this woman [Hale] who terrorized our family with bullets 
to now be able to terrorize us with words from the grave."

Look, Leatherwood, confront it, don't hide from it.
Grow some balls.
Don't let mere words terrorize you or your family.
Quit whining.
Call out evil when that is appropriate.

As to 
Hale's "words from the grave", 
don't hide from them, condemn them.
Is that too hard for you?
