The readers emotions on this day of July 26, 2011 are probably screaming to shut me down and silence my opinion. But that's just it. This is
nothing more than my opinion. The reader should be tolerant and open. That's the only way to prove him wrong.
In this screwed up world of emotionality he has proved that
killing is better publicity than truth
Its easier to ask for forgiveness than permission
the gorram hippies are killing us
Now, how does one attack what I have written above?
Plea on behalf of the children: based on what facts?
Shun and ridicule the writer: emotional tyrany
Advocate medication and care: whitewashed poisoning
Go on a mission of nastiness: admitting we are wrong
Call the police, fbi, swat, Dhs: appeal to authority
… and many others all equally predatory.
So what is the reader saying? That they approve of predatory behavior but only when it is done in support of a position that they themselves hold.
That the peace and love approach for solving problems is nothing more than propaganda.
No. He is right. Western culture has become suicidal.
Just a week ago, a great number of people would have admitted that they find this new generation to be worse than useless. But now that he has acted
people are backing off of that position and suddenly everyone is an advocate for the children. Well this raises the question of “who's
children.” Your children? My children? Their children?
Or does the world believe in everyone's children, and if so why does anyone encourage abstinence.
No. Breivik is right in that we have been given too many feelings to support, too many positions to defend, and too many identities to embrace. So
why stop now. Why not embrace one more Identity. Why not accept one more position. Why not support one more persons' feelings.
Oh … so the reader admits that there are rules. That there is a limit. That there is a line that one does not cross.
If that is true then . . .
Anyone who has done the following is as guilty as Breivik
played call of duty
started a business
saved money
learned chemistry
become politically active
… or is the reader going to argue that killing is wrong, because if that is the case it is my duty to remind you that there are 9 other commandments
and everyone is guilty of at least one. So where is the readers tolerance now. Or is it a case that the reader is not sure what to think, and will
just wait on the media to tell them how to feel about the whole thing.
Breivik is right.
He's a butt wipe, but he is right.
Maybe if people were more tolerant of his position in the first place he wouldn't have snapped.
