Reflecting on today’s Muslim terrorist (yes, I said that !) attack in Ottawa, I have to wonder how long the civilized world will treasure political correctness over common sense. Who in the world attacks Canada ? Well, the crazies of the Muslim cult, perpetrators of 99.9% of the world’s terrorist activity, and mass intolerants, relieved yet another family of their husband and father today. If you wince at the last sentence, too bad.
Four years ago, I applied myself to becoming a youth soccer referee, an adventure way out of my comfort zone and at an age probably way, way past my prime. Over the years that my son played, it has become obvious that soccer is indeed a contact sport, not a collision sport like football, but definitely requiring players to have a willingness to bang bodies. My approach to games in which I am in charge is to let the players play and bang until they no longer deserve to do so. Once that line is crossed, more fouls are called to control the tempo and avoid a melee, with the yellow caution card and the red sending off card additional tools for the referee to control the game and protect the players’ safety.
This cult no longer deserves the benefit of the doubt; they have crossed the line of decency; they no longer deserve our tolerance. Muslim leaders around the world fail to disparage/criticize/attack the alleged 10% that are bloodthirsty animals. As a loyal Pennsylvanian, I can attest to the fact that the Amish would have shunned the whole bunch a long time ago.
I do not know the answer, except to say that we need to start talking about the obvious, and not hide behind tolerance and political correctness. I’m a little tired of being so tolerant. Give me your thoughts. Whining without solutions is not my typical approach, so I could use some intelligent feedback. I’m afraid that showing the crazies a red card just won’t cut it. WHAT THE HECK !
