The world

Just been watching the news and it kind of depressed me. It was a sort of deja vu feeling I had after the highlights, though why they are called highlights nobody knows. Ira-bombing in London, muslims trampled on in Mekka and some American schoolchild kills several in his school. Days like this depress me. Everything happened before, nothing is new, don't we learn from our mistakes? Aren't we suppose to become more civilized?

Especially this fifteen year old shooting in school completely goes on my f#$%^-ing tits! It was the third time this year, and we've only started the third month. So we're on course for 12 big shootings this year, which means a few dozen innocent schoolchildren will get killed in 2001. Isn't there anybody with common sense left in the United States? isn't there anybody who links the availability of weapons with all these incidents?

How the fuck's sake is it possible that forty-something percent chose a president last year whose campaign was funded big time by the weapon industry? Today he delivers a public statement about how much sorrow he feels, tomorrow again he does nothing about it. No, the right to defend yourself is an American tradition, the right to have a weapon is too important. Isn't it fucking obvious that when it becomes extremely difficult or even impossible to buy any fireweapons, incidents like this one could be avoided?

Wake up America, the rest of the world is laughing at you!
