Wash, Rinse, Repeat

49 dead.

New Zealand this time.

Same old, same old.

The script hasn’t even changed much.

Muslim hate and the killer is a young, white male.

You’d think that the day would be somber and that all nations and all people would bond together to completely condemn the violence and would work hard and coming up with a solution.

Haven’t we learned anything about how to live together?

The answer, of course, is a resounding NO.

Rush Limbaugh said that it could be a leftist plot, believing that the man wrote a white nationalist manifesto, even mentioned Trump by name, because he was a lefty looking to give right-wing, white nationalists a bad name.

When I read that horrendous theory, I got a little sick to the stomach. That kind of rhetoric is dangerous and throws wood on the fire.

Straight up lies meant to inflame have to be called out.

“Democrats are for crime.”

“Democrats want to kill babies after their born.”

“Immigrants are on welfare.”

“Illegal immigrants voted multiple times in our election.”

None of those things are true.

Some are said, over and over and over again...

...until people who may not have the mental capacity to think right...

...internalize the hatred, and make a plan.

There isn’t a single doctor in America who would abort a viable baby in the last trimester, and certainly not after birth!!!

That’s straight up murder!

Immigrants...

...illegal or otherwise are not eligible to collect welfare.

There wasn’t rampant voter fraud.

Most of all, the rhetoric needs to change.

“Invasions.”

“Murderers and rapists are pouring over the border.”

It’s sad.

Social media gives everyone a platform. Hatred is spread in the name of free speech and it escalates, escalates, and escalates...

...until it explodes into pain.

Indescribable, heartbreaking, senselsss pain.

In a place of faith.

God help us.
