After viewing the carnage left behind by this latest shooting spree in Virginia, I pray some day we’ll come up with a way to travel through time – especially back into time.
Think of it. We could go back and take out all the crazies before they committed their terrible deeds of murder and mayhem.
My first target would be Adolph Hitler and his crew of idiots; Mussolini too. Millions would live full lives. Our battleships and carriers would be arrayed against the Japanese sneak invasion. Saddam wouldn’t have been born. Neither would the ten worst dictators we now face.
Then there’s John Kennedy’s murderer, Lee Harvey Oswald. There’s one for the books. John was going to stop the war in Viet Nam and pull our troops out of that quagmire. Think of the thousands of young boys who would be fathers and grandfathers now if we could go back and wipe Oswald out in some strange accident.
Fast forward to Charles Manson, Ted Bundy, Jeffry Dahlmer, Richard Speck, “Reverend Jim Jones”, the Waco Whacko David K., the Texas Tower shooter, all the postal shootings, the crazy at Luby’s, the two teenaged killers at Columbine and now the Virginia Tech campus killer.
I know I missed some – there are SO MANY! And sad as it is, there will be more.
Perhaps God is sitting up there, looking down at me and saying, “Thou Shall Not Kill”, but what about the victims? Doesn’t anyone, including God, think of them and what could have been except for the maniacs out there running wild and free?
For as long as I can remember, we’ve buried the victims of senseless violence. Then, if we caught their killers, we pampered the murderers by putting them in prison where they enjoy three squares a day; air conditioned cells, recreation time and colored TV. Meanwhile their victims rot away, waiting for justice which never comes. Bleed on you ACLU hearts.
Our politicians will cry for some sort of unnamed, unknown justice for a short time and then carry on with filling their pockets for the next re-election run. God help America and all of us.
Instead of supporting your favorite pork-belly project, Senators and Congressmen/women, please vote for some money to look into time travel.
I could rave on for hours, but instead I’ll stop and say a prayer for all the victims of crime. May their killers all rot in hell.
I hope you’ll join me.
God bless all of those mourning the loss of their loved ones throughout our great land.
I’ll continue to pray for you, and America.
Vic Con Dias,
