Apoplexia

Perhaps soon we’ll just become numb to this. Maybe one day my grandchildren will be brought up to just expect murder and mayhem of this magnitude. Be shocked when a school doesn’t get shot up. Stories of the safety and comfort of the past will fade into lore and be regarded with detached indifference like tales of knights and maidens that once delighted my parents. 

No instead they’ll be familiar with concepts of militarized public education camps with some Orwellian level nanny-state gestapo new world order level shit. Each subsequent infraction against the tenets of common good push us further beyond the point of redemption. Each sacrifice laid at the feet of the sacred “2nd amendment” depreciate the value of life further. I can no longer sit silently by and watch my children dodge bullets while lecherous lobbyists, the paid for errand boys of the apocalypse, weave tenuous webs of rationalization and deceit in hopes that the distracted masses at home are too anesthetized to take notice. 

I’m tired of liberalism. I’m tired of conservatism. I’m tired of fascist neo-nazism. I’m tired of fundamentalism. Isms, in my opinion, are not good. A person should not believe in an ism, he should believe in himself.
