The Despicable Event of January 8, 2011

I know that most of the time, We here at Blasphemy like to make fun of anything and everything that comes our way, however, there comes a time where nothing funny can be taken from a situation.

On Saturday, a tragedy occurred in Tucson Arizona; a single shooter, Jared Lee Loughner opened fire on Arizona Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords, standing on a street corner answering the questions and addressing the requests of the people who elected her.

Twenty people, including the Congresswoman and a Federal Judge, were hit. Six people, including the Judge and a nine year old girl were killed, the other fourteen are in stable to critical condition. Congresswoman Giffords was hit in the head and is now in serious condition. Loughner was tackled to the ground by two bystanders whilst he attempted to reload his gun. If you ask me, they should have snapped his socially stunted little neck.

How is it that people could even dream to make excuses for Loughner? The man is 22, and people are trying to make the case that because he was socially awkward, he deserves a break.

No!

No he does not deserve a break, he does not deserve mercy, he does not deserve a second chance! This man deserves a slow, painful death for what he did.

Let me be clear, I am not biased, I live nowhere near Arizona, I know none of the people involved in the shooting on either end. All I know is that Loughner deserves a death sentence, and the guys who tackled him deserve medals.

It is men like Jared Loughner that single handedly alter so much for the rest of us. An idea, even a radical one, is one thing, to impose the idea through violence is completely different. Once a person reaches that level of self delusion that they are completely right and nobody else's opinions matter at all, their position here is forfeit, and they no longer deserve a place amongst us.

As an addition: Fidel Castro condemned the shooting. I say we throw Loughner to Castro, let him take care of the little shit. I guarantee, an example will be made.

So, here's to hope of the speedy and complete recovery of Congresswoman Giffords... and to the execution of justice upon Jared Lee Loughner.
May whatever god he believes in have mercy on his soul... I doubt it will.
