Dear Friends,
It seems to me, if we want to eradicate violence like the Boston Marathon bombings, we must eliminate the cause, removing the means only empowers the very factions that perpetrate these crimes. The university system in the United States has ceased being a place of higher learning and instead has become indoctrination centers for communist thought, political correctness clouds the minds of the unbiased media, and we are told our Constitution needs to be weakened to stop these evil actions… all of which rewards and encourages the criminals. We allow this to go on because we feel powerless to stop it even though many of us have known about the problem for a long time.
The human suffering from the Boston Marathon bombings is the result of people who believe that violence against innocents is an acceptable form of political discourse. This mind set is as pernicious as it is evil. Those who would do such a thing should be locked up for the rest of their lives or be the voltage drop in a high amperage circuit. The outcry from the American public will demand this for the perpetrator of this heinous evil. Our outrage is justified and righteous, but justice must be applied evenly, else it is not justice, it is injustice.
Make no mistake, the bombings were a political expression. No matter who did it, be it communists, anarchists, Islamofacsists or even radical right wingers, the bombing of an athletic event was a manifestation of someone’s politics. More and more often political expression is becoming a violent act. Sometimes, because of the shooter or bomber’s feelings of powerlessness, often due to their opinion of religious teachings and regularly as a result of the overtly violent political movement, we call socialism. Our society is plagued with political violence against bystanders.
At the time of this writing we don’t know who the bomber(s) are. The culprit or culprits could be anyone. Yet this type of bombing has happened in the past many times. We have forgotten them, sometimes not even punishing them, and as a result, we are reliving them. Our forgetfulness has allowed evil to regrow and retool to become even more dangerous. Our having allowed, through our inaction, past terrorists like Bill Ayers and Bernadine Dorn, not only to escape retribution for their actions, bombings that resulted in deaths and mutilation of innocents and children in the 1960’s and ’70’s, we have rewarded them with high paid professorships… we have, at the very least, minimized the offense, and at worst, glamorized it.
The answer to stopping political violence of any nature, is not to outlaw guns, destroy the Constitution or limit access to toilet cleaner, it is to shine the light of public opinion on the political ideologies that underlay it. The unbiased media, and our government under Obama, have colluded to protect communists and Islamofascists from the light of public scrutiny. Political correctness has blinded us to the reality of violent factions that are empowered by it, while our university system has been usurped by people who seek arbitrary power, even if it has to, “come at the end of a gun”… as one of Obama’s political appointees said, quoting Mao. Indifference and ignorance empowers the political violence we find ourselves facing today.
Unless we make a stand and demand that the unbiased media stop clouding the realities of favored political factions, with self censorship, use the power of the purse to force universities to go back to higher education, visit justice on all murderers, even if they are close friends and associates of the President, and call evil what it is, without fear, (eliminating the cause), no amount of regulating the means will stop it. Timidity in the face of evil, encourages evil, even as it discourages good. If we agree that political violence like the Boston Marathon bombings are unacceptable, we must stand together and require these things of the elite, in the media, academia and politics. Nothing less will put an end to the bombings, mass shootings and mob violence our televisions bring into our homes and we experience in our lives. Outlawing guns, (the means) only leads to disarmed victims, but has no effect whatsoever at stopping political violence. Unless we seek to become Iraq or Afghanistan we must speak loud and with conviction. Our children deserve no less from caring parents.
Sincerely,
John Pepin
