Senseless Violence

Over the weekend we saw two events of violence. I have to ask myself, who is to blame. Of course, the easy thing would be to blame President Trump. Which is what the corporate media is doing.

But let's get real, he didn't tell these lunatics to go and commit acts of violence. They already had it in their minds to do this. KKK was committing acts of violence as far back as the 1930's. No one blamed the radio or papers for it. No! They blamed the KKK for the violence they committed. That's the way it should be.

When someone does something they alone bare the blame. Not the television, radio, or internet. I find this to be stupid. I was raised when you do something except responsibility for it. Or don't commit an act you don't want responsibility for. I have raised my daughter to own what she does and make things right.

Bottom line, we have a generation who has been raised with a victim mentality. Which has left them incapable of accepting personal responsibility? Yes, I am aware of how many times I have used that word. It's not used enough.

Enough, I refuse to accept this senseless violence and play pass the blame. The person who loads the weapon and uses the weapon must be held responsible.

War Is A Racket

  This is an excellent quick read. If you don’t have ADHD, it’s a quick read. I started this book before Thanksgiving so between the holidays and every day crazy train I finally finished it. Of course, I made notes in each chapter about my thoughts. We’ll see if this helped compared to the chapter-by-chapter review we did on The New Confessions Of An Economic Hit Man by John Perkins.  Throughout the book, General Butler covers the ins and outs of war. He looks at the financial cost and the human cost. He starts out by explaining how the military-industrial complex was formed. Which I do think is critical. Most people in America don’t understand what the military-industrial complex is. Never mind how it is used. I am not going into detail here just read The New Confessions Of An Economic Hit Man. You will understand the order in which things unfold. The minority of Americans know who profits from war and who doesn’t. General Butler covers that as well. You will notice I said ‘m...

How America Angered God Lust

  We left off at Wrath. Now we will continue this list and finish it out. Sin: Lust This is the sin that nails us all. It is wanting power, pleasure, and money. Not necessarily all of these but one or all.  I grew up in the 1980s so when I think of examples of this particular sin I am reminded of Jim Baker and Jessica Hawn. He was married to Tammy and lusted after two things; money and Jessica. Their lust brought them down in the end. Tammy had her own lust for money that contributed to their downfall.  Ten Commandment:  Thou shall not commit adultery.  Virtue: Chastity Being chaste is recommended by Christ. In the book of Mathew chapters 19: 12 and 22: 20 Christ talks of being chaste. Being chaste teaches discipline. https://youtu.be/7Y8lHwOIu_A
