In which the middle-aged Peacenik mouths off about War Drones--and all the other things that make him cranky.

Mr Mahatma--who is a Mr in real life--lives in the valleys of Southern California with his wife, a herd of Dears, and an impressive collection of books. Pnorny!

Little Mr Mahatma

The Other Terrorists
While Bush keeps crowing about how successful he is at fighting terrorists, I guess, of the Islamic kind only I wondered what Bush planned to do about the Other Terrorists, namely gangs. Here, with the demise of the law against automatic weapons, comes an additional burden for the Police to protect us from terrorists and better-armed gangs. Good luck.


"Oh, but Mahatma, gangs aren't terrorists..."


Let's see, they kill innocent people spreading terror, disrupting a calm fabric of life. Sure, they're not politically motivated, but they still cause death and disruption. Thanks to Bush it'll be easier for them to get better weaponry because it's easier for us (non-gang) types to get better weaponry. How many people secure their firearms at home? How many firearms get stolen each year?


Do I feel safer knowing I can go out and get an assault weapon? No. And I don't like Bush and his cronies telling us that essentially violence is acceptable, necessary, and a daily part of our existence. I don't care that war and violence are good business for him and his cronies. If he wants to peddle pain and power and play soldier then do so on his ranch.


And I'm getting fed up waiting for Kerry to attack. Bush's strong point - terrorism - is his weakest point. Nail him on that and there's nothing left. Come on, Kerry, show some cajones. You're the Vet. Don't take my vote for granted just because you're not Bush.
