What happened in Boston, a terrorist attack, should serve as a wake-up call to ALL Americans.
Yesterday, at the end of my article, “BOSTON MASSACRE – The Table Was Set” I placed a graphic image of the Boston terrorist attack.
It came as no surprise to me that I was criticized for doing so.
One woman’s comment read: “That last photo is particularly gruesome–and the man easily identifiable by family or friends. For the sake of decency, either mask the face or remove the photo altogether.”
“The animals behind this strove to inflict optimum injuries and casulties–why give them visuals to gloat over?”
I’m sure she meant no harm with her comment and I certainly don’t hold it against her.
Mask the face?
Nope. Not me.
I will NOT mask the truth, the reality nor the insanity of the attack. No way. That man has friends, family. They KNOW who he is and THEY know what happened to him. He, and they, will deal with it for the rest of their lives and God Bless them and keep them but, to mask his face would be making a faceless person in the crowd of him and those responsible for “setting the table” for that horrific terrorist attack don’t need to see faceless victims.
To them, the Benghazi 4 have become faceless names.
For them, Brian Terry and over 200 others murdered because of Fast and Furious have been sealed away under Executive Privilege.
In THEIR World…the survivors of Ft. Hood are just forgotten faceless names not to be recognized.
Mask THIS man’s face?
Not I.
I want those people to LOOK at that man’s face.
I want them HAUNTED by it.
Just like I want them haunted by Brian Terry, The Ft. Hood victims and survivors…Sean Smith, Tyrone Woods, Glen Doherty and Ambassador Chris Stevens.
The body count is mounting over this regime’s failed policies, absurd schemes, lies, distractions, dismissals and appeasements.
As long as those most severely injured aren’t in the face of those whose actions initiated horrible realities, they will be ignored.
Political correctness is a DEADLY affliction and Monday’s attack in Boston proved it once again.
“Don’t jump to conclusions.” That’s what Obama said on Monday.
It’s exactly the same thing he said after Ft. Hood.
With Benghazi…He promised to bring those responsible to justice.
It’s exactly what he said on Monday regarding Boston.
See the pattern?
I can’t yet tell you the name or names of those who built the bombs or detonated them in Boston but, because I looked, really looked at that last image from yesterday’s article, I can paint a picture of them.
Evil.
Morally bankrupt.
Without remorse.
Ideologically warped, mentally disturbed, full of hatred.
No respect for life or self.
Radical.
Depraved, unconscionable, unfeeling, uncaring and without the light of being.
Anti-American.
Anti-Freedom.
Self-absorbed, narcissistic, emboldened and sans heart.
Godless.
Sound familiar? It could be a terrorist or…One who sympathizes with them on a grand scale.
On Monday, Obama sent a memo to John Kerry.
“I hereby find that the furnishing of defence articles and defence services to the Federal Republic of Somalia will strengthen the security of the United States and promote world peace.”
That is in line with U.N. wishes as THAT organization of thugs, thieves and despots had, a month ago, partially LIFTED an arms embargo against Somalia allowing them to gain access to automatic assault rifles and rocket-propelled grenades.
Oddly, these seem to be the exact same sorts of weapons we supplied to the Libyan “rebels” before the overthrow of Gaddafi and, the same weapons used against US in Benghazi by TERRORISTS.
Let’s not forget that Somalia’s government is in bed with the Muslim Brotherhood and we are also arming THAT organization in Egypt.
Obama has consistently sided with Hamas and the Palestinian Authority.
He has tried to befriend the Taliban.
He refuses to stand up against Iran and continues to fund Pakistan while turning his back on the Pakistani Doctor who helped identify bin Laden.
He extends the rights of U.S. citizens to terrorists captured on the fields of battle and refuses to call the “ALLUHU AKBAR” shouting terrorist Hassan a terrorist.
He would rather appease those ideologically opposed to freedom and human rights than to stand against them.
To Obama, the victims of terrorists are faceless and that is exactly how he wants it.
After 9/11, the media made a decision to not show the planes hitting the towers and to no longer show video of those jumping to their deaths.
It was too gruesome, they said. Insensitive to the victims and their families.
That is exactly what the terrorists wanted.
Anyone, as I described above, has no need to see the images to gloat but, knowing that WE are TOO overcome with emotions at the sight of those images to look at them…THAT is their victory. THAT is what THEY consider gloat worthy.
Could I have included a “GRAPHIC IMAGES” warning in my article yesterday? Yes but, the first thing people do when you tell them not to look down is…To look down.
But mask the face or remove the image altogether?
No.
Here’s the “truth” that socialists see.
Stephanie Johnson is the U.S. Forest Service Public Affairs Officer.
Hollywood B-list slug Jay Mohr had THIS to say: “What bothers me about today (Boston Marathon tragedy) is that we’re getting used 2 it. ENOUGH. 2ND Amendment must go. Violence has to stop. Culture MUST change…. The 2nd Amendment lends itself to the CULTURE of violence.”
Michael Moore: “Tax Day. Patriots Day. 2+2 =”
Here’s one from New York Times blather mouth Nicholas Kristof.
Steny Hoyer said the attack in Boston is, “clearly another place where it demonstrates why having the ability to address security concerns is important,” and Collectiveman Xavier Becerra of the People’s Republik of Kalifornia spurted, “the first responders working Monday aren’t sheltered from cuts. We have to send you less money to help your first responders.”
They’re blaming the Boston Massacre on the SEQUESTER which of course, they blame on Republicans.
Do they think that this administration’s welcoming hand and support of those who hate America had anything to do with what happened in Boston?
Nope.
Regardless of who did it. Regardless of where they came from or their ideology, they HATE America. That much is clear and should the person or people responsible be found, regardless of their origins and ideologies, they need to pay the ultimate price.
Add the examples above to the 2 videos from yesterday’s National Patriot article and ask me if ANY of those fools, those morons who are all too willing to blame Republicans, the Tea Party, sequester or the 2nd Amendment, with no evidence whatsoever, instead of the TERRORIST or TERRORISTS who did this, want you to see the image of the severely wounded man’s face.
No. No they do NOT.
Those who will gladly stand with the despots of the world do NOT want you to look into the eyes of 27 year old Jeff Bauman Jr., yes, we now know his name, because that guy is TOUGH. He’ll do what Americans do. He’ll rise above it. He won’t let whoever did this win. HE’LL win.
That image is the 100% unvarnished truth and if we can’t look at the truth…ALL of it…With our eyes wide open than how can we fight the lies, deceit and chaos coming at us every day from those who mean us and our nation harm?
If we’re more concerned with “feelings” than with the truth, we have already lost the battle.
It does not desensitize me. It makes me want to cry everytime I look at it or think about it and then it makes me mad. Mad that there are people out there with so little regard for human life. Mad that complete idiots like matthews and blitzer are spewing hate on national tv and their stations are okay with it? Mad that instead of waiting for the facts people are trying to PIN it on someone any one that meets their pre-decided notion of who it was. Mad that we have a president who does not care that this happened except that he will get a photo op and people are okay with that. It makes me made that idiots are using this to take our rights away.
It will not stop me from praying for those injured, for those who’s family and friends were injured, for those first responders and volunteers who rushed in to help and for those that just don’t get it.
@Joshua Your comments just affirmed my statements. How does that type of carnage and devistation bring you “Joy”? The only way it could, is if you are that desensitized to it to even for a second not be sickened by it. Your response to my comment suggest that people will automatically kill. I never said that. I said it makes it “easier” for people to take lives, when they become desensitized to these types of images. There is a very thin line, between what most of society deems normal and what psychopaths see as normal. That’s why we have movie, tv and video game ratings and warnings. Desensitization is real….. And effects everyone…. Even you sir, wether you can see it or not.
Joe,
Josh “GETS” it…You don’t.
The use of such an image is meant to elicit a full range of emotions. You want to suppress certain emotions.
Craig
Craig’s title sums it up. We need truth. We need to learn truth for ourselves, not simply lap up what the government “can’t-hurt-anyone’s-feelings” schools and the media puppet theater feeds us.
If truth leaves us ‘feeling’ bad, then thank God we still have a conscience.
@ Colleen Wounded Warriors would disagree. Shock is the body’s way of ‘protecting’ itself and the mind when trauma happens. The effects of it are unbelievable to most of us because we’ve never had to go through it. Ask any trauma surgeon or EMT if they’ve seen something similar to this guy and you’ll get a unanimous “yes” in response.
@ Joseph Fortenberry
“And the more we see and view these type of images, the more people become desensitized to this type of violent behavior.”
I respectfully disagree. I believe it depends on an individuals “grounding” that determines whether they become desensitized to images like this.
“And when they become desensitized to that behavior, the easier it is to take human life without regard.”
Again I disagree, a person’s destination is determined by their determination. They wont kill because they see violence alone. It must be coupled with no moral compass, a lack of compassion, and an uncommon depravity.
“This comes from a Veteran who has seen carnage much worse, and knows full well of It’s impact on the psyche.”
I too am a veteran, as many body parts, mutilations, tortured bodies, and familiar faces burned, broken, dying and dead as I’ve seen I have no desensitization going on. These images do not make me want to kill any more than the last 1000 did. They horrify me and yet they give me courage, they make me sad and yet bring me joy, they shake me but steel my resolve. People need to see these images in all their horrifying reality. We lose the reality when we blur out the faces of the victims of terrorism.
Colleen: Oh it is real. I cannot believe your comment(S)!
What Craig is talking about is EXACTLY why most of the younger generation have no idea about war, our Constitution and Bill of Rights and what the REAL world is about! You keep listening to those professors and community organizers and you will remain in fantasy land. Ignorance (lack of knowledge of real events) is no excuse!
That is real! Read the story of the guy in the cowboy hat, what he did. Find it on the Daily Beast. The guy was bleeding out, the cowboy hat man grabbed a sweater and put tourniquets on both legs, grabbed a wheelchair.
As to truth being suppressed, reminds me of the first few days after 9/11, media stopped showing people jumping from the buildings, claiming “sensitivity”! BS I say! We NEED to see images like that to remember and remind us exactly how horrific such things are, and then to NOT CODDLE THE PERPS which is what he are doing! Giving aid and comfort to the enemy = (you fill in THAT word).
I’m sorry. Something about that photo looks totally bogus. That man should not be sitting up and conscious. There should be more blood. He should be on a gurney. There is no way someone with that extent of injuries would be in a wheel chair, he doesn’t even look like he’s in pain… I think this is a fake. IDK, seriously, think about it.
Colleen,
He was in shock. There were no gurneys handy. Ambulances couldn’t get in fast enough and wheelchairs were on hand for those at the finish line too worn out to stand or in need of assistance. It’s as real as it gets. he is now in the hospital, has been operated on twice with more to come, is sedated and hasn’t really been told of the extent of his injuries.
And the more we see and view these type of images, the more people become desensitized to this type of violent behavior. And when they become desensitized to that behavior, the easier it is to take human life without regard. This comes from a Veteran who has seen carnage much worse, and knows full well of It’s impact on the psyche.
