Usually on Fridays, I write a quotation commentary. But today, I'm pausing, instead, in a moment of silence for the victims of Fort Hood.
What happened was senseless and tragic... cowardly more than anything and I hope the shooter rots in hell when it's his turn to leave this Earth.
My heart goes out to the families of the victims and for the victims themselves. I pray for speedy recoveries for those left with life and community healing. It's bad enough when we lose the brave men and women who fight for justice, and for freedom, overseas. But to have one sick, deranged, jackass of a man take their lives while here on what should be safe American soil? I'm heartbroken and appalled.
My soapboxing, insofar as this blog is concerned, will usually stick to subjects like Twilight. But I just want to say this one thing:
People who think that violence is the answer to their personal problems, or believe that their "gods" call for violence, or who think "so what? I got a little drunk and hit her, she'll be fine", or anyone along those lines, deserve to be castrated (so they produce no others with their own twisted beliefs) and left to rot on an island with others of their kind.
My sentiment entirely Sara. I was just going to say, give me a gun. But that would be far too good for them. Let them rot. Or better still, perhaps the beauty industries should test cosmetics on them rather than pour shampoo into rabbits eyes.
ReplyDeleteoh this just makes me sick. too close to my heart.
ReplyDeleteand you are nicer to me. I want them all to suffer from capital punishment. Let God decide if they deserve heaven or hell, no second chances on earth.
Well done, m'dear. It's a tragedy that leaves us all speechless.
ReplyDeleteAnd feel free to soapbox on any and all subjects (although I've quite enjoyed your defense of Twilight.)
It's so sad. My sympathies go out to all the families and friends.
