I don't care the politics, the idealism, the religion (or lack of it), etc of this guy who went on a shooting spree.
He destroyed the lives of so many others, and most dear to me personally he killed a 9 year old, same age as my daughter, for whatever twisted reason he held in his sick mind.
We all are trying to make sense of it, to place blame for it, and in the end the only blame I place is on the person who did the deed.
Not on guns, politics, mental problems, his religious beliefs, rush/beck/palin/, etc. I don't blame our society, or even our health care system. I have been through a hell few here know in my life and I have not done such as this.
This guy does not bring up in me feelings of politics and such, but more so he is an invocation of something I would find in an H.P. Lovecraft story - an evil that cares not for anything but itself. This guy was and is all the things evil from out of our nightmares - not made by others but made by his own curse where he became more about his own mind and all else was not real.
That sad day a little girl fell to the ground, she laid there and died, all her hopes and dreams bled out on the floor of a grocery store. Her life ended because some sick ass freak thought he could change the world by blowing away people in a grocery store. He was and is a sick and twisted worthless human that has done nothing to further whatever his sick cause was.
So many want to make it about them or their cause - politics, gun control, "we are not to blame" etc - we wrestle to make sense of someone who was not any better than other petty tyrants through history - folks who think only of themselves and not others.
We look for a cause. A reason. We look to blame, so that we can find a fix.
If human history is any indication we seek in vain for an answer. We might seek causes, reasons, but in the end many of us ourselves have been through hell and never once done such as this.
Kill someone like me, an older man who has lived his life and certainly has some faults that someone, somewhere, could find enough fault with in their twisted minds - that I can almost get and understand if I had to. But killing a little girl, no - there is nothing there you can claim in your worthless sick mind that would justify it.
I can have sympathy and understanding for a great many things, I cannot here or now or ever for hurting a child. Us adults, we can often rationalize (sadly so I might add) hurting each other for things said or done - I am not really sure why we do, but we do. Kids on the other hand don't have any power to make choices and to punish them for your own sick problems is not just wrong, but really really wrong.
So many are focusing on an elected representative and making that their main focus - for me, I learned all I needed to know by you shooting a little kid. I don't think anyone on the right or left are for that, I don't think Palin or Obama or anyone in between would be for that.
You cannot hide behind politics or some other idealism, you are a sick fucker who had no morals and destroyed the lives of many for some sick reason.
I blame you, and no one else - I don't care what the pundits say, I don't care the politics of you, I care only about your actions.
You did this - no one else.
