Idyllic World

I have become tired of people telling me the way the world should be. Most of them live in a world I don't want to be part of for any reason.
They get up in the morning in an air-conditioned house, get into a car in an air-conditioned garage, drive the air-conditioned auto to an air-conditioned garage, ride an air-conditioned elevator to a floor they "work" on and consume their day with tasks of an electronic nature only to leave and drive to an air-conditioned health club where they "work out" by running the Boston Marathon on a machine, walk up a hill while standing in one place, and "lift" weights I would consider childish with the aid of an electronic coach.
These are the people who are "running the world" or at least their version of it. I do not subscribe.
Back in 1999 I met a woman who haughtily referred to farmers as being stupid. This was in Chicago and she was one of the aforementioned air-conditioned society. I told her I was one of those "stupid" farmers and that we had all gotten together and decided we were going to let her and all the other city dwellers die when Y2K destroyed everything. She wasn't amused but did have to admit that the food came from those "stupid" farmers. And maybe they weren't that "stupid" after all.
Perhaps if I were more civilized I would understand these people. I am sure you know some of them. They are the ones who tell you that Muslims are a peaceful people who hold the same beliefs toward our fellow man as we.
Have you been to the Middle East? Have you seen the shirts they sell there, proudly worn by the average guy on the street? They have t-shirts and button downs with a big picture of the World Trade Center on fire. They wear them proudly. Stick it to those infidels. The problem is I'm an infidel. I never did anything to those people. I wouldn't want to, although now I might. They keep talking about how they want to kill me and I'm supposed to be tolerant of them for their religious convictions. I don't think so.
I'm sick of the people who say we shouldn't show anyone the World Trade Center burning because it will cause undue hatred. Undue? I knew a guy who was killed that day in the WTC. I haven't forgotten and I won't. I don't care what the manicured, washed and perfumed tell me. Anyone that says JIHAD around me better be prepared to eat lead.
They (the true believers) keep the WTC alive by spreading their great victory to the streets openly wearing it as a badge of honor. But we are supposed to calm ourselves and not hate them. I wish I could be that Christian about it. But I think of my daughter and my grand-daughters and I just can't do it. When someone wants to kill me I don't see the problem with killing them first. If I have to go to hell because I stopped some zealot from killing my grand-daughter, then I'll go to hell. Some things are worth fighting for even if you have to do bad things.
