Write to your reps about things that matter and here is the drivel you get back:

You are friggin kidding me. The guy is a cold-blooded murderer. There is no way to minimize what he has done. There is way too much evidence against him and he should be taken out back at shot in the knees; then shot in the elbows; the shot in the groin. Once he has had enough pain, shoot him in the head. Sorry, kinda a humanitarian thing there for a moment.

Sorry folks, I'm way over politically correct crap with monsters. Make them pay! If nothing else, at least hang them in the town square. Used to work in days of old, sure it would give some murderers second thoughts...and if not, who cares? I want everyone to see these monsters deaded on TV!!! Yup, I'm that vengeful. Tough sh&t.

Also, would like to see the younger brother of the Boston bombings go through the same pain. Think of all those who lost limbs - think about that for a moment while he goes through the judicial process. While I cried for those who died, we all die. Those who had limbs blown off will have to deal with that for the rest of their lives. If you've ever been to a military hospital, you've seen what a loss can do to a person. Not everyone is as upbeat and responds so well as seen in movies and TV shows.

Additionally, for every terrorist or lone shooter atrocity, we should make an example out of them. Yes, I've read the VIII Amendment about so-called cruel punishment. If such a thing were to happen to my loved one, if the courts didn't give the correct life-time punishment, believe me, I would make the attempt to avenge and screw that Amendment while I hire (yes, I'm a puss) to take them apart. They better keep me out of the court. Yeah, I'd go to prison.

Same thing you get from the networks, too, if they even write back. I’ve written before about things and I don’t even recall if I ever got a reply. I’m thankful for being forced by this Gosnell trial to find ways around the run-around, like contacting the advertisers. I ended up joining Twitter, too. I wonder if more Christians older than 30 joined, if that would make a difference.

My family often asks me why we cannot seem to make a dent in the evil currently sweeping our land. I tell them to remember this warning in Ephesians 6:11,12

11)”Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.

12)”For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.”

The high places of our government and media are filled with men and women whose intentions are anti God.(Wicked) Gay marriage, unlimited porn, (even on daytime TV)The list goes on and on.
