EVIL
« on: September 11, 2011, 10:42:01 AM »
On 9/11 evil boarded 4 planes.  It sat a few rows away from  parents with their 2 year old on the way to see family. It sat near a woman who'd promised her husband they'd celebrate his birthday when she returned.  It sat near people who did not deserve to be singled out. 

Evil.

Not dysfunctional, misguided, unloved, uneducated, misunderstood, poor, oppressed, sad, hopeless, depressed, stupid, jealous.

Evil.

It exists.

And it waits.



The sermon today at my church touched upon forgiving your enemy.  I have to admit I'm not in a forgiving mood.

Shortly after 9/11, "let's roll!" was on many, many lips; now, it's "let's roll over".

Quote
... the really important things -- the  doomed WTC jumpers, the dancing in the Arab streets -- was underplayed or censored by the media.

...

Quickly the fear and outrage we felt was considered by the elite to be too dangerous to acknowledge or validate.  They consider the rest of us moronic murderers it would seem.   Instead of reminding us of the truth of that day, they fed us a steady stream of  gelding, feminizing pap about religion of peace, multiculturalism, overwrought (never realized) fears and claims of anti-Moslem discrimination and harassment, and blame shifting to us the acts of  genuinely murderous thugs.

You're channeling Mark Steyn with that quip.

From here:

Quote
There were objections to the proposed “Crescent of Embrace” on the grounds that it looked like an Islamic crescent pointing towards Mecca. The defense of its designers was that, au contraire, it’s just the usual touchy-feely huggy-weepy pansy-wimpy multiculti effete healing diversity mush. It doesn’t really matter which of these interpretations is correct, since neither of them has anything to do with what the passengers of Flight 93 actually did a decade ago. 9/11 was both Pearl Harbor and the Doolittle Raid rolled into one, and the fourth flight was the only good news of the day, when citizen volunteers formed themselves into an ad hoc militia and denied Osama bin Laden what might have been his most spectacular victory. A few brave individuals figured out what was going on and pushed back within half an hour. But we can’t memorialize their sacrifice within a decade.

And when the architect gets the memorial brief, he naturally assumes that there’s been a typing error and that “Let’s roll!” should really be “Let’s roll over!”

And so we commemorate an act of war as a “tragic event,” and we retreat to equivocation, cultural self-loathing, and utterly fraudulent misrepresentation about the events of the day. In the weeks after 9/11, Americans were enjoined to ask, “Why do they hate us?” A better question is: “Why do they despise us?” And the quickest way to figure out the answer is to visit the Peace Quilt and the Wish Tree, the Crescent of Embrace and the Hole of Bureaucratic Inertia.

Thanks for pointing this out, Glock.

I believe it is quite possible that less than 30% of the American people want to roll over. 
Pollster, ask Americans a direct question about what they think about these murdering scum
and you will find more than 60% are ready to roll.  Rock and roll right now.

I love'd my kid when I corrected him for bad behavior....This will be no different.
I'm not always engulfed in scandals, but when I am, I make sure I blame others.

Render unto evil what evil deserves.
The problems we face today are there because the people who work for a living
are outnumbered by those who vote for a living.

"A strict observance of the written laws is doubtless one of the high duties of a good citizen, but it is not the highest. The laws of necessity, of self-preservation, of saving our country when in danger, are of higher obligation. To lose our country by a scrupulous adherence to written law, would be to lose the law itself, with life, liberty, property and all those who are enjoying them with us; thus absurdly sacrificing the end to the means."
