I have received many questions of "what can I do to stop the carnage"?

Unfortunately, the repeated cycle is: Tragedy. Politicize. Polarize. Status quo. Repeat.

The Rebbe taught that there is one way to ensure that a child grows up to be decent and upright: He must be taught to begin each day by acknowledging the fact that there is a Super-being, the Creator, Who wants this world to be governed by morality and holiness. He must know that there is a One Above that is beyond every human being, yet is a personal One Who is aware of everything the child does. - Watch and read these poignant talks and articles, directly from and based on the teachings of the Rebbe, expounding the value and importance of the Moment of Silence.

This Shabbos is "Shabbat Shekalim". In the times of the Beis Hamikdash, each Jew contributed an annual half-shekel to the Temple. The 1st of Adar marked the beginning of the collection of the shekalim. In commemoration, the Torah reading of the Shabbat that falls before Adar a second Torah is read of the verses (Exodus 30:11-16) that relate Hashem's commandment to Moshe regarding the first giving of the half-shekel.
