Hope? and change.
Most folks can deal with a finite amout of hardship.Tough winter,but the promise of spring.Lost the crop,but we'll plant again next year....
Good,Play by the rules folks can go over the edge
If they worked all their lives,built a future,and have it robbed by crooks and corruption.
Pensions can be defaulted,etc.Promises broke create rage.Create fear.
People eating fear and anger,eventually can have their minds find a "groove in a warped record"
A lot of folks jumped from windows in the 1920's stock market crash.
Perhaps now there is more to be angry about.
The belief systems and promises of our nation are being abandoned.
I think we will see many more desperate acts by desperate people.
I do not suggest it is excusable.No matter what led to it,killing people will gain no respect or empathy.
Compare Timothy McVeigh to those who signed the Declaration of Independence,or the Chinese student who stood before the tank at Tienimen Square.We can honor,support,rally behind those who will risk dying for the love of their country,but not someone who kills from rage.
Agreed,the media and political agenda pump ot for all the propaganda it is worth.
Not long ago,in my town,a woman who was using her cell phone struck and killed a 9 year old girl with her vehicle.She was convicted of distracted driving,guilty of a misdemeanor.Got one years probation,$300 fine,had to write a letter of appology,do community service.
How many people are killed by cellphones in USA each week? What is the body count of texting and driving?
Where is the media?
It is not that the media cares about people or death,or the same focus would be on cellphones.The media wants death,atrocity,horror.It gives them a story for their pornographic sensationalism and ammunition to support the political agenda they promote.
It is not about guns.Our culture is being torn down.
$800,000,000 for Hamas,an Ipod fror the Queen,and lets tell our Veterans who left blood and brothers and sisters on the sand we changed our minds and they should buy there own health insurance.(Credit this idea to Tammy Bruce)
Does anybody suspect printing trillions of empty dollars will make their financial plan for old age diminish?
Lets look at stopping the people who are robbing and destroying our economy and our future .
But,yeah,lets also be peaceful.Hurting,killing,gains nothing.
