Actions speak louder than words?
This ain’t some Photo Shop fantasy. Try googling with keywords: President Bush eating a cat.

After the bloodshed at Virginia Tech… a shoot out in NASA… a man intending to make the Virginia massacre look “mild�, by threatening to go on a “killing spree� in schools in Yuba city and Marysville… north of California and the US Presidential contender Republican John McCain singing, “bomb bomb bomb Iran�… I guess Americans seriously need help!

Instead of bombing others and plunging in to wars one after the other the Bush junior must spare sometime for his own electorate. The US is turning out to be a belligerent state and it is high time it should start thinking of the after-effects of war on its own countrymen if it cannot feel the pain of others!

Violence begets violence!

I have all my sympathies to the common people of the country in question, which is pointlessly being thrown into war. People want peace be it America or some third world country. No nation on the face of the earth is invincible even if it’s the biggest superpower of the world. Something or the other can create tribulations and in this case is the inner randomness in the minds of the Americana youth. Too much violence leads to hysteria, which is evident from a number of such cases that happened in America, time and again.

August 1966: Charles Whitman killed 15 people and wounded 31 at University of Texas campus in Austin.

March 1998: Two boys aged 13 and 11 killed 4 students and a teacher at Westside Middle School in Jonesboro, Arkansas.

April 1999: Two students killed 12 other students and a teacher at Columbine High school in Littleton, Colorado, before killing themselves.

January 2002: A student dismissed from Appalachian school of Law in Virginia killed the Dean, a professor and a student, wounded 3 others.

September 2006: A drifter took six female high school students hostage in Bailey, Colorado; molested them, then shot one to death and killed himself.

I wonder what kind of a “fancy� term can be given to such issue less killings of innocents. Humanity needs empathy and compassion instead of coldness that’s dragging humanity towards annihilation.
