A Rose
~~*~~

A Rose is a Rose
And A beautiful Rose
By Any other name
Is Still A Rose.

A terrorist, is a Terrorist
And A terrorist
By any other name
Is still a Terrorist.

Wake up you political Clowns
And smell the coffee
Quit
Smelling roses
Among decaying bodies.

They are afraid of what will be done to them and their families. These terrorists have no love for anything or anyone. They have only hate in their hearts . Hearts that have been blackened by years of brain washing by elders.

Wasn't expecting this to take that turn.

But you are right. I don't understand why a peace loving Muslim that lives next door to a terrorist don't turn them in. But alas, if I thought my neighbor was involved with something I would for sure alert the authorities. Two weeks ago I heard gunshots in my neighborhood. My wife asked me why didn't I call the police. I said "what good would it do?"

Ow, this one hurts! It's easier to blame the politicians than to correct our faults. Behind every terrorist is someone who is treated unfairly, perhaps bullied as a child. If we look to solving the roots of our problems, they wouldn't be so great and so ineffectively dealt with by political solutions.

The situation at hand is so sad and depressing. Drastic measures are needed.

GREAT words in poetic bluntness! Yes, call a Spade a Spade. These morons are getting away with murder while the libs struggle for words to call them. Well if only one took a bite off of Billery Clintonless backside she may reach an awareness that if they can kill a goose they can kill a gander. There is NO compromise on this issue! Shot all of them or at least have a good old fashioned public hanging.

How can they claim to have a God when they kill innocent people for reasons perceived by them to be the answer to an insult. This is plain murder.

So senseless, these killings, i just don't understand why innocent people need so suffer and be killed. It surely is a dangerous and not fair world out there everywhere in every country.
