A good friend who has been traveling to America on business for more than a decade left Brussels, Belgium, for her current trip to America just days after the Paris shootings while Brussels was still on lock down for a possible second attack.
Part of her trip to America is to visit her brother in Colorado Springs for Thanksgiving. So she was there yesterday when a gunman shot eleven people in a Planned Parenthood clinic. She will be returning to Pennsylvania before going back to Europe. I hope nothing like this happens in here in Pennsylvania.
But it could.
Because Fundamentalists of every kind share a common belief that they are right and everybody else is both wrong and can be killed for The Cause.
So murderous Muslim Fundamentalists attack the most civilized city on the planet, and a lone Fundamentalist, reportedly armed with the same weapon, the AK47, shoots eleven people on the day after Thanksgiving. Because whatever kind of nut-job Fundamentalist he is, the faux God he has made up in his head told him that killing innocent people is the right thing to do.
