"I feel fine."
I slept in today which was nice. I knew that while I was sleeping there were stupid people all over the country frantically trying to get a good deal on a TV or iPod. I was horrified when I finally got up and started looking at headlines. Two headlines caught my eye immediately.
The first one was a story about the hostages that were killed in Mumbai, India at a Jewish center. Men, women, and children were shot by terrorists. I can’t imagine the horror of being in that situation and knowing that these crazy gunmen could not be reasoned with and that my life would be soon coming to an end. Muslim extremists are becoming more and more aggresive towards Jewish people and communities. I don’t know what I can do from where I am right now. It is horrible to feel as helpless against such violent acts as I do.
Meanwhile, in the United States, what are we worried about? The other headline I saw was about a worker at a Long Island Walmart being trampled to death by a stampede of bargain hungry maniacs. This seriously made me want to scream. I can’t believe that we sit here while people are being murdered by psycopaths and all we care about is saving an extra ten dollars on our new TV. What has happened to this country? I give up on it. I don’t think there is any going back to the ideals that make(made) this country great. I don’t like to wax political, but this is ridiculous. The greed of this country makes me want a meteor to come destroy this planet. The world is in a downward spiral and there is nothing that is going to change it. The greed, pride, and indifference of our world leaders and the people of the world in general have led me to believe that it would be better for the world to be destroyed by a meteor than for us to continue on our current course. The only thing that we are headed for is more war, death, and destruction.
Shame on all of you who were involved in any type of mob activity while trying to get a good deal this morning. I hope that you feel happy with your new TV or X-box. I hope you feel happy knowing that your greed and utter disregard for others cost at least one life that I know about and countless other injuries. I’ll see you in hell, cuz that’s where this world is headed.
