Shirley Smith: Killing Them Kindly

MS SMITH GOES TO WASHINGTON

BuzzFlash,  

Is this why we need a Republican partisan Supreme Court ... to decided how we kill people in the US? Let us count the ways. If the US citizen in question is not in prison, sitting on death row, then he can be walking on the street and get shot because another US citizen, with a gun, thought he was being threatened.

If that's not the case, there's always an overdose of prescription drugs or drunk driving ... not to discount the number of deaths due to out and out murder or suicide.  

Out in the real world, there's always some conflict going on and we can be assured that US military will be there spreading democracy.  The Bush GOP's crimes against humanity in Iraq and all of those US prisons of torture are still without accountability. Does it really matter to the US Supreme Court how our government kills people?   Compared to what ...  shock and awe? The invasion/ocupation of Iraq? The bombing of Afghanistan ... the death of New Orleans? 

This Republican Supreme Court's decision shouldn't surprise anyone if they have been paying attention to the Bush GOP's debt, death, and destruction of everything they have touched for the last thirty years. They fear no accountability. And, they haven't stopped ... they are wanting to kill people in Iran.  

Can we assume, then, Iran is being targeted because they've enjoyed the bleeding of Iraq so much (from afar), and we Americans are constantly being told by Bush, McCain, and other supporters of this treasonous war, about what a success the illegal occupation of Iraq has become ... uh, how many Iraqi citizens would agree with them, I wonder, of those two or three million who have had to leave their country in order to survive, and the poor, no choice, something the poor in the US can understand ... 

Whether it's clean injections, lack of food and medicine, or depleted uranium bombs, there is one subject no one around the world can argue with when it comes to how the United States government, under a Republican regime, kills people. Nothing else matters, just so they are dead ... right?  

Thanks BuzzFlash,  

Shirley Smith
