I won’t hit on the hot points, only that it is very easy now
looking back at all the tragedy to say a lot of the things now. He addressed a
lot of my own prejudices. My distrust of Muslims. But, yeah, it hit me that I
probably should not be that distrustful. It’s like knowing someone who won the
lottery and assuming I’m going to win (if any analogy can be bestowed upon it).
I’m not telling any other American to believe that all Muslims have terrorists
beliefs. It’s pretty easy if you have disgust for our lifestyle. Shit, it
drives me nuts looking at the Kardashians. If only my hatred of those train
wrecks would extend to the rest of America, I’d be a happy man. I’d be the ISIS
of Kardashians. But I think I should just let them sink themselves. Also, I
think Satan already has dibs anyway.
I think what bothers me most are the questions that are left
on the table after this San Bernardino tragedy. You can’t just pinpoint a group
of people. This appeared to be a triggered event by someone who became really
radical and that it hit so close to home. Some of my co-workers irritate me,
but never in my mind could I ever draw a weapon against them. Mostly because I
HATE guns (as mentioned before). There is one dude who loves guns. Early of our
time together, I recall getting into debates over it. There isn’t a reason for
this nerd to own a firearm. My guess is that he’s just a sad piece of shit who
thinks the world is against him. I sometimes think the world turns on me, but a
gun is just WAY too easy in the hands of dumb people. You really should have to
take a test to own a gun. It may sound stupid but we take a written test and a
driving test to drive a car. It obviously doesn’t stop the black market sales,
but it does validate legit owners. And yes, I get that you gun nuts staunchly
believe it’s your patriotic right to own a firearm. I don’t think the
forefathers really understood the ways we stupidly could’ve turned our
constitutional right. People should realize our right to live should trump your
right to own a gun.
I’m just sick of seeing innocent people suffer.
