[Today’s run: 7+ miles, rain and lightning]<\/p>\n
I don’t have much to say about the news and commentary going on yesterday and today about the guy in Denver who shot up a bunch of people at a packed movie theater.<\/p>\n
One thing I would like to add:<\/p>\n
His actions were evil.\u00a0 It was wicked and wrong and terrible and shameful.<\/p>\n
I don’t know why we seem to have a desire to not call it evil.\u00a0 Bin Laden plotted the 9\/11 attack and that was evil and we are OK calling it evil.\u00a0 This guy plotted a mass murder shooting and it was evil.<\/p>\n
Maybe he is deranged or insane or whatever, that doesn’t really matter in judging the outcome of his actions:\u00a0 wicked, evil, wrong, shameful, depraved, inhumane, terrible.<\/p>\n
It is smaller than 9\/11, but only because he didn’t have the leverage to make that large of a outcome.\u00a0 It is just as evil, wicked, shameful, terrible, and wrong.<\/p>\n
