Neal Boortz tells it like it is.
By now you know that there was a shooting at the CNN Center in Atlanta yesterday afternoon. It was a domestic dispute ... one of those "If I can't have here nobody can have her" jerks shot and killed a 22-year-old woman near the Omni Hotel inside CNN Center. Congratulations to Turner security officer Odell Adams who immediately arrived on the scene and put a bullet in the SOB who had shot the woman. Unfortunately the shooter is, so far as I know, still alive this morning.
When the gunshots were heard people, naturally, headed for the exits. That's where some of the local news cameras caught up with them. One otherwise normal looking woman told a reporter "It was like 9-1-1 all over again!"
Say what? You have a domestic dispute in a public place, two people get shot, and this hysterical fool says it was like 9-1-1 all over again? She compares a domestic shooting the flying two commercial airliners into buildings in New York, one into the Pentagon and another crashing into a field in Pennsylvania? Does this woman have any real control over her emotions?
Question --- perhaps one of the more insensitive questions I've ever asked on the air -- how long do you think those TV reporters would have had to search to find a grown man who would say "It was like 9-1-1 all over again?"
Oh ... and those poor, poor, pitiful, weak CNN employees. Only a very few of the CNN employees in the building (if any) saw what happened. But the CNN management, perhaps recognizing the frail mental state of their employees, will be bringing in --- yup, you guessed it --- counselors today for the CNN staff. Poor babies. Not strong enough to cope?
Many many years ago we had a similar situation at WRNG, Ring Radio -- my first talk station. It would have been around 1971 or 1972, I think. Another one of those "If I can't have her nobody can have her" jerks came to our station and stabbed his estranged wife to death. No counselors. We mourned our loss, prayed for the death of the bastard who killed our coworker, and got on with it. In fact, I got my first job in talk radio because Ring's morning talk show host committed suicide. Again ... no counselors. They just hired me and it was on with the show, though with a different name.
We are now being taught, beginning in our insipid government schools, that we are not as strong as we think we are. We're told that whenever something happens that might be a little bit out of the ordinary and stressful at our schools, our workplace ... anywhere in our personal environment ... someone needs to bring in psychological counselors to assist us and to help us become fully functioning human beings again. We're weak. We just can't handle it. We run around screaming "It's 9-1-1- all over again!" I'll bet that woman ran off yelling "where's my counselor! I need a counselor!"
How in the ever-loving hell can the people of this country deal with the threat of Islamic terrorism -- though most no longer think its a threat -- if we can't deal with an act of domestic violence without throwing ourselves on a couch to sob and shake uncontrollably while some counselor gives us a few choruses of "there there, it's going to be all right."
The wussification of America marches on.
By way the way ... how about someone at the hospital pulling the circuit breaker on that jerk's life support?
or this gem thanks to the panty wearing Dems in DC..............
Well ...let's see. Just how long has it been since we've done something to show that we're weakening on this war against Islamic fascism thing? At least a day, don't you think? But, hey! The Democrats are running the show in congress now, if they can't work diligently who broadcast American weakness, what good are they?
Well, here comes Ike Skelton, a Missouri Democrat and chairman of the House Armed Services Committee. Skelton had a staffer draw up a little memo instructing staffers and members that the references to the war on terror should be eliminated from the 2008 defense budget. it seems that the Democratic house leadership doesn't like the phrase.
The rub here seems to be that the phrase "Global war on terror" was first used by none other than the hated and reviled (by Democrats) George Bush shortly after 9/11. The intent is to leave the word "terror" out of the lexicon of the Armed Services Committee. Who knows, perhaps if they stop using the "T" word so much, people will forget the threat we face and Democrats will have all that much more money to spend on vote buying, killing the rich and appeasing Moveon.org.
You listeners will note that I, too, have a problem with the "war on terror" phrase. Terror is a tactic. You don't declare war on a tactic. You declare war on the people who threaten you. That would be Muslim radicals. The proper phrase should be the "War on Islamic Fascism," but you just know that no good peace-at-any-price Democrat would ever go along with that. Besides, it's offensive to Muslim terrorists.
