Who smokes the blunts? We smoke the blunts.

Making more curry--updates on that later, I'm certain.
Silent Bob is also thwarted by my lack of sneakers.
LJ user phillipalden posted this article from News Day about a terrorist attack on a building in Iowa that didn't make the news. I sure didn't see anything about it, anyway. These are people who hate us, who want to see us dead. They have organized, in the name of a bloodthirsty violent god, to commit violence and threaten violence in order to intimidate or coerce a civilian population. There is no reasoning with them. According to my government, this means that I am not just authorized but downright morally obligated to bring that violence back down upon their heads.
But I'm probably not going to go out and buy a gun so that I can put a bullet in Clayton Waagner's twisted and unChristian brain. I will instead rely on the laws upon which this nation was founded and which give this country the potential to be a pillar of freedom, democracy and liberty to arrest him, try him in a court where he is presented with the evidence and testimony against him, allow him to testify in his own defence and dig himself into a giant hole, and then convict him and put him in a small metal box for the rest of his life.
I guess that makes me a cowardly CutAndRunoCrat.

EDIT:
Edited to add a link to phillipalden's next post in which he writes his own words about the future. He has a lot more faith in it than I do, but I hope he's right and I'm wrong.

So is there a good benefits package in being a troll? Because I certainly could use a new job.
