America on the decline

The “shady individual” showed up at a public gathering for Rep. Gabrielle Giffords asking to see the lawmaker, according to event volunteer Alex Villec. Told he would have to wait his turn, the man left but returned minutes later and gunfire erupted.

The gunman returned and fired shots that killed several people and a 9 year old girl. Why did the gunman start firing? well it had to do with Obamacare. Yes this nutcase opened fire because of health care. While you might not agree with Obamacare, or for that matter most of his policies, what gives you the right to go into an open event, and take the life of innocent people. Is this what America has come to? Is this the new American Dream?

We hear of shootings taking place all over the United States because of armed robbery, murder, domestic disputes, and gang related violence, but at a political event for an elected official. A 9 year old girl who will never grow up, who will never play with her friends, who will never see her family again, never get to experience life, and who could have made a difference in the future.

Is this a result of the Tea Party movement to take back America? Or is it the start of another civil war in the United States?. I don't have the answers, but all the signs are pointing towards what very well could be the seeds of a civil war brewing in the United States between law abiding people, and nutcases who feel that the only way to take back the United States is by violence.

My heart goes out to the family and friends of those who lost their lives in this senseless killings, and mainly to the family of the 9 year old girl who, like I said above will never experience life.

Until next time!
