Just like school

So they got their man. The bomb suspect's have been captured or killed. But look at the disruption as a result of their actions. Sporting events cancelled, business's shut down, people locked in their homes. You remember when it only took a few to ruin it for the rest. And now all marathons are doubling security, to go to a hockey game you have to go sooner so they can scan you, man doing anything will be like getting on an airplane! Will we all say to hell with it and not bother? Will we become complacent and allow this to happen again? 

For me, I would have given up my season's tickets, I would avoid large public gatherings. Because when the freedom of attending these events gets taken away the fun is gone with it. How can you take a hockey or baseball game seriously when people are being killed indiscriminately. Living in North America has kept us isolated from these kind of things, but not anymore. 

Then there is the gun control thing, that is all I heard this weekend. Debate after debate with nothing to come of it. Is there just too many people on this planet? Are we becoming so cramped that to live freely is a thing of the past? And how on earth do these thugs remain in power? So many questions, so few answers. Or at least answers that we can ALL live with. Wake me up when the new age is upon us.

7 billion, wanting it their way, and counting.
