With credit to John C., the friend of mine who wrote this... Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, the surviving “Boston Marathon Bomber”, was featured on the cover of Rolling Stone Magazine this week. And I couldn’t give a rat’s ass. Sure, he’s a terrorist and, likely, a murderer. He deserves no quarter other than what is guaranteed to all Americans accused of crimes, in spite of his professed hate for those things. And he will still get what he deserves. My personal outrage is not directed at Rolling Stone Magazine for putting a terrorist on their cover. They certainly have that right. It is instead focused on the fact that we, as a society, (a majority of us, anyway), seem more angered at the exercise of free speech aesthetics of the editors of a private magazine, of which absolutely NO ONE is compelled to purchase rather than focusing our energy on the complicity of the government with real terrorist acts perpetrated against all of America by the traitors on Wall Street and among the Fortune 500 branch of government, who affected every one of us by dragging down our standard of living, and forever changing our customary American financial values and way of life (as unprincipled as those might have been-please save your comments about this one thought for another day). And the complicity of those in the government, (e.g. President “We Will Leave No Stone Unturned in Prosecuting the Financial Institutions and Corporate Chiefs for Their Corporate Wrongdoing” (but hasn’t), George W. Obama, the SEC, the US attorney General, the Supreme “Corporations are People” Court, etc…), is now being completely ignored by the masses, to the complete satisfaction of the Government and the corporations who support and run it, leaving us just as vulnerable to these terrorist traitors as we were in 2008. Their shadow continues to terrorize anyone with a mortgage, credit card balances, anyone who uses gas or other fuel, eats food, or buys necessities, or needs to responsibly borrow money for any other use. Here’s why I don’t care about whose photo is on the cover: This photo on the cover of Rolling Stone doesn’t affect me in any way other than that I have read that there is a controversy about it. Nothing changes in my life whatsoever whether the photo of Tsarnaev is on the cover of Rolling Stone magazine, whether they put a halo or devil horns on his heard in the photo, or whether his profile is carved into Mt. Rushmore. Nothing changes for me. Because I don’t care. And I don’t care because no matter the choice for the cover, nothing changes for me. Get it? However, as long as we waste our energy on stuff like this which doesn’t matter, we will never have the will (or attention span) to make a difference relating to real crimes against America, and against our real (multiple) way(s) of life. So while we waste our right to free speech showing our outrage at things that don’t matter in the least, the crimes and terrorism against America, and the real terrorist perpetrators from within will continue to pull us down, and use such tragic events as the Boston Marathon Bombing to keep us afraid. And there is no easier population to control and to rob of their rights, liberties, and freedoms, allegedly in the name of “national security”, to hoodwink and deceive, than a population that has a short attention span, and who lives in fear. Enough is enough. Stop being fooled and scared by them. Question EVERYTHING! It’s time to take back America from the government and the corporations that run it.
