taerowynI'm tired of watching the news...each viewing of the plane crashing makes things seem less and less like real life and more like the movies. Can we say desensitizing?
I'm tired of people judging the majority based on the actions of the minority. How would they feel if the world judged us on the actions of Timothy McVeigh?
I'm tired of right-wing Christians using any crisis as a platform..."This is God's punishment for gays in the military, the ACLU, abortions..." No, I'm not making this up. This is a close approximation of what Pat Robertson said when he was on Jerry Falwell's show this week.
I'm tired of people clamoring for immediate retaliation so we can fix this wrong by causing the deaths of even more innocents.
I'm tired of the press asking the victim's families "How do you feel?" How the #!@^ do you THINK they feel?
What can I say...I'm tired.
