am i still ill?

will it end?


Uh Oh, another school shooting.
I wonder which celebrity the crazy christians and republicans will use as a scapegoat this time. Marilyn Manson isn’t as popular as he was in 1999 during the Columbine era, so it won’t be him. Eminem has had his day, I think they have used him a bit too much.

A movie this time perhaps? There have been quite a few violent movies out in the past few years.

Hey, perhaps they’ll go all out this time and blame an event!
Perhaps the holocaust? Or the Rwanandan genocide? After all they were very violent and kids could easily have learned from them.

I mean, it wasn’t like this kid was fucked up anyway.
His father commited only suicide, his mother is in a nursing home with brain damage after a car accident and the other kids at school taunt him constantly because he’s a “Goth kid”. Who hasn’t had this happen to them at least once in their lives? What a crybaby.

What I’m getting at here is, as the story is just breaking here there is no doubt in my mind there are numerous groups getting together to find the new face of their smear campain to ban anything other than love of your leader and love of the lord when the real issue is about child support. Was this child being cared for properly given his situation? Was he getting councelling, being visited by support workers, social services?

After the Columbine shootings in 1999 Christians started picketing Marilyn Manson concerts and burning Eminem CD’s. They even tried to get Marilyn Manson prosecuted in Italy because they claimed that two girls who killed a nun was influenced by his music.

It will be a sad day when they decide on their new target.

I’d like to nominate myself as the new scapegoat for everything slightly fucked up in the world.
