Pat J…I agree with you!
Why does a crime have to be changed into a political debate? Why not mourn the loss of life together as Americans? The lives of Pvt. William Long, George Tiller and Steven Tyrone Johns, three Americans, are dead. Killed here in our country and all we can do is argue who is left and who is right. We are glorifying their killers. We may view Tiller as murderer himself but that is something we change with science and law not murder. We may view the killer of Pvt. Long as terrorist but lets let the law of our land take it’s course. The killer of Steven Tyrone Johns is a crazy old man.
Let’s try to understand each other a little bit better.
There’s a lot I don’t get about people who view the world differently than me and many of you already know what those are from my previous posts on different blogs. I don’t get Islam no matter how much I read about it. It’s a religion not a race, why do they need protection when other religions don’t. I don’t know where the money is supposed to come from if the government is going to pay for everything. I don’t get why someone who has sacraficed and worked hard to make it in our country should give a large percentage to give people who have done nothing the same things without a choice. Why do we want the government to run our healthcare when it has been proven that every social issue the government has taken over has been ruined; ie. education.
I have a hard time understanding people saying they want a smaller government yet they want laws regarding things they oppose; ie. censorship, marriage choices, race issues, etc.
One thing I enjoyed as a kid was the diversity of the people in our country yet we were all Americans. I guess growing up on military installations skewed my views.
So, where on the spectrum of left and right would you put me?
