As I was watching some videos of police using unnecessary force against peaceful protesters all over this country, why are we as a nation not outraged? A good part of our population were horrified at the atrocities that were perpetrated against Iraqi prisoners at Abu Ghraib upon seeing the pictures:
But if I was to gauge by watching the mainstream press, I see little anger outsider of the movement, over the excessive use of non-lethal, but extremely painful, tactics. Force.
Well, when you put it that way, it seems wonderful.
“You know with all the terrorism and violence by religious fanatics and right wing radicals over the past few years, I got to thinking that Christians would really be a lot happier if they had their own place to live — a special place just for them where God runs the show. So here’s my idea — why don’t we take some crappy state hardly anybody lives in or cares much about, like Wyoming, or the Dakotas, give it to the Christians, and call it Jesus Land! The capitol can be called Christopolis. I think it would be real cool if Jesus Land was shaped like a cross. I think Jesus Land will be like heaven on earth for Christians — finally they can get away from all the atheists and non believers who pester them constantly about the stuff they believe but can’t prove. A place where you never have to worry about Sharia Law, or insane, radical clerics passing draconian laws based on some false religion. Since Jesus Land was my idea, I’ll be taking all the deposits — just send me a crisp $20 bill in an envelope and I’ll hold your spot. Peace & love suckers!”. -oldfartrants
