Yesterday it was Maraş.
Today is Urfa.
This is no longer news language, but a diagnostic sentence.
Because if the same type of violence is repeated in a country, in the same institution, with the same method, and not even 24 hours later, there is no longer an “incident”. There is no production mechanism There are.
The perpetrator changes.
The city changes.
But the result does not change.
This is no coincidence.
This is the same ground producing the same result.
The biggest mistake made today is still to read the issue as “vulnerability”.
No, no, no.
It's not the door.
The problem is getting to that door.
Because violence does not start at school.
Violence starts much earlier.
Children are no longer just on the street, growing on the screen.
And that screen:
- Demonstrating violence
- Normalizes violence
- Turning violence into a tool of visibility
A child learns this even before he or she completes his or her identity:
“If you want attention, you have to cross the line.”
This is the breaking point.
It's not about that anymore:
“Where did he get the gun?”
The point is this:
“Where did he get this idea?”
Because violence today is not an individual deviation,
is a digitally fed behavior model.
Algorithms emphasize violence.
Violence attracts attention.
What attracts attention spreads.
And the child realizes:
Violence is the shortest way to become visible.
From this point on, school is just a place.
The main stage has already been set.
The gun enters through the school gate.
But violence enters the mind much earlier, through the screen.
And if this production area is not brought under control,
no matter how many guards you put on the door.
WHY IS THE STATE ALWAYS LATE?
This is the most critical breaking point of the problem:
The state is still works according to the physical world.
But the threat is now is produced in the digital world.
This incompatibility is the root cause of what happened.
What is the reflex when something happens today?
- Putting security in the school
- Post a guard at the gate
- Increasing the number of cameras
These are necessary.
But let's be clear: insufficient.
Because they target results.
The problem is that the result was produced much earlier.
Before a child comes to school with a gun:
- Traces violence
- Normalizes violence
- Internalizes violence
- And finally it applies
The state is part of this chain in the last ring it comes into play.
So it's always the same thing:
Incident happens → statement is made → investigation is launched.
But this is what should happen:
Identifying risk before it happens.
This is what we call state capacity.
Today this capacity is clearly weakened.
Because the system misses three critical points:
RISK IS NO LONGER VISIBLE
The threat used to be on the street.
Today the threat is on the screen.
It grows in the closed room, in the individual world, in algorithms.
DATA, NO WISDOM
Everything is on record.
But nothing is analyzed.
But there are millions of content:
Which one turns into behavior? → No follow-up.
REFLEX SLOW, THREAT FAST
The digital world is instantaneous.
State machinery is lagging.
Conclusion.
Threat emerges → grows → materializes → the state catches up.
But it was too late.
There was an attack in Urfa.
What does a normal system do?
- Initiates a nationwide emergency security protocol
- Quickly screens risky profiles
- Strictly controls access to weapons
- Enables digital threat analysis
None of this has been done.
And the next day Marash happened.
This is no longer “negligence”.
This one, is the problem of the unlearning system.
If a system does not learn from the first mistake,
The second mistake is inevitable.
The third mistake is the character of the residual system.
This is exactly where we are today:
Mistakes are not the exception,
has become the order itself.
But something more dangerous is happening:
Society is getting used to it.
The state normalizes this.
And the most critical threshold is crossed:
A late reflex is considered an adequate reflex.
This is where the collapse begins.
Because as soon as a system starts to see itself as sufficient,
it doesn't fix itself anymore.
YOU WILL EITHER PREVENT IT OR YOU WILL LIVE
The issue is now clear.
It's clear what happened. It's clear why.
The question is this:
Do you really want to stop it, or just talk about it?
Because there is no such thing as a “half solution” in this kind of crisis.
Either you intervene radically or you repeat the same sentence:
He was there yesterday.
He is here today.
Where is tomorrow?
ACCESS TO WEAPONS WILL BE SYSTEMATICALLY CUT OFF
This cannot be solved by saying “we will increase inspections”.
You will put a concrete obligation:
- If there is a gun in the house → locked safe will be mandatory
- If child access is available → heavy sanctions will be imposed directly
- License → not only issued, will be a continuously monitored process
Let's be clear about the truth:
A child taking a gun from home and going to school,
“not ”individual error", is systemic permission.
PROTECTED, NOT MONITORED
Today schools are not protected.
It is just being watched.
This approach has collapsed.
What needs to be done:
- Inputs and outputs controlled and systematic will be
- For students showing risky behavior early warning system will be established
- Counseling services are not “paperwork”, active risk analysis will do
And the most critical decision:
School security is a matter of national security, not education.
Because it is not about discipline,
direct life safety.
DIGITAL WORLD: NO EMPTY SPACE LEFT
This is the most critical but most avoided area.
Nothing can be solved without accepting this fact:
Violence does not start at school.
It starts on the screen.
That's why:
- Access to violent content will be limited by age
- Algorithms will be audited
- Digital awareness for families will be made compulsory
- For children with risky content consumption early intervention system will be established
This is not a debate about “freedom”.
This one, is a matter of mental security.
If this field is left blank,
all other measures only for show.
THE MOST CRITICAL STEP: ACCOUNTABILITY
Everyone avoids talking about it.
But here is the knot.
There's an incident:
The lower echelon is investigated → the file is closed.
Nothing will change until this cycle is broken.
The questions are clear:
- Who did not supervise?
- Who didn't see the risk?
- Who didn't intervene?
And these questions will be asked upwards.
Because the systems are not with intention,
accountability.
Now the sentence is very clear:
These events can be stopped.
But first, this must be accepted:
- Education is not the only problem
- It's not just about security
- It's not just the individual
The problem is the floor.
As long as that ground doesn't change,
you just change the name of the city.
Yesterday Marash.
Today is Urfa.
And if these steps are not taken...
You ask the same question again:
Where is tomorrow?
