The Bastille Day Terrorist Attack - Nice, Paris - MY OPINION

             Have you ever felt like the most awful things that happen become natural? Do you feel like "another one? damn.." . Do you feel like you're getting used to all of this?
             Do you EVER feel like you're in one of those revolving dors but these ones don't have a way out? Well I do! Unfortunately I do...


Truck attack in Nice, many deaths and even more injured people. A man driving over children, families, mothers, leaving them running blood on the concrete floor. Going after those who were trying to run away; shoting at people nonstop! You're watching the fireworks and the next second you're being attacked without mercy, sad world.

We see attack after attack and we always seem to find an excuse besides looking at the core. Individuals commit bad acts. When individuals committing bad acts start singing from the same sheet music it's about time you look at the fucking sheet music. I don't have faith that those who control the policy conversation - or even the broader conversation - will allow that look to happen. We're living in the aftermath of the policies that enabled this, I doubt we're about to take a nice long critical look at it.

I guess what makes my heart ache in the wake of this tragedy is that there will be those who blame the West for this attack, there are those who would act as a shield for these terrorists by casting the innocent majority in front of the violent, and that there are those with the power to enact change to prevent this who just plain won't. Those are disgusting realities.

It's a fucked up situation, if we mass deport or start profiling, countless innocent people will suffer. If we let things stay as they are, countless people will suffer. It doesn't feel like there's a "right" approach to dealing with this.

Everyone wants to be PC and not hate on Muslims, but when this shit happens day after day by the same people, you have to see a correlation. Not all Muslims are bad, but you can't deny the religion (I'm not talking about Islam alone) has created some of the worst people.

I'm tired of saying #PrayFor(InsertCity). We really need to physically do something.

Another attack that will soon be "forgotten" by everyone. Real change will only happen when enough people remember the atrocities and react to them accordingly.

The government is supposed to work for the people, if we speak loudly enough they will hear us. Plato said: " One of the penalties for refusing to participate in politics is that you end up being governed by your inferiors. "

France is one of the biggest arms dealer on the planet, selling massive amounts of arms to countries like Saudi Arabia. This needs to STOP. Stop finacing these people, FIND YOUR OIL SOMEWHERE ELSE, stop being greedy for money! Stop arming the wrong ones.

This is not the world I want to live in, a greedy world. I surely can't cure all of this by myself, but something needs to change.
