I SAY! We have become a useless bunch, haven’t we? The news is chock-full of terrorist reports. Kidnappings, hostages, sieges etc… Are we that weak? We are.
Recently, desperate groups are in the rise, from all faiths doing all kinds of nasties (understatement), yet we sit, perched in our chairs, reading and viewing the horror become, across news channels, with nary a shift in our armchairs and another sip at the chardonnay; we’re a disgusting bunch.
Fancy a world where, if your little motley-crew of terror-inducing miscreants is labelled as a “Mark” by the UN, you will face the terror from the rest-of-the-world? And I’m not taking about the combined armies here; I am referring to the everyday man, with a 4x4, perhaps, a few rifles and a bunch of friends.
Hide, you may try, hidden within the populous, people will no longer be scared to report you and your miserable lot, once they know you, you will be killed, outright.
Will there perhaps be a day where the all the world has it religious leaders around one table and as humanity shout “Agreed, we agree on the basics of human life, any person dealing in human terror is to be killed on-site”
"Special penance for the killing of a designated Terrorist"
Work it into the faiths, already
No trial. No Jury. The world has spoken. You are now a Mark. You are free game, like wildlife in an earth-sized hunting-ground.
Hit the wrong target, and your country’s law will fry you, that still holds true.Makeno mistake, you need to know your mark
But give the people the right to fight back: Any hostage-taker must know, they have now created enemies, of their hostages, allowed to KILL them, on the spot. After the fear dies down and logic returns, you now MAY take that letter-opener and shove it right through their eye, back, chest or any part of them that will end them, not disarm or immobilise, end them.
I don’t care about what religion you are trying to represent or that you feel a message needs to get out, when you involve innocents in your fight… You no longer deserver the title “Human”.
If someone is stoned in a township through mob-justice, do you arrest the 800-odd people who ended the “so-and-so” drug-dealer? No you don’t, you can’t. Those miscreants are dead because a group has decided to take the law into their own hand, and as stuipd as people are, en mass, you cannot argue with a majority vote.
Make these asses so scared of crossing the line; they think 10 times, knowing their lives are forfeit.
