ghetto morgan speaks her mind
19 September 2001 at 7:19 pm

dinner tonight, with a bunch of people. topic of terrorism came up. i am for bombing; apparently, no one at the table was. so this girl meghan and i get into a discussion about punishment, or justice, and she says she doesn't believe in an eye for an eye and ends the conversation with "well, i don't bring up my political views a lot because i'm very liberal and everyone i talk to is republican and religious and i've made a lot of people cry." i think she was trying to brag. i just wanted to stand up and shout, "ok, bitch, you obviously don't believe in capital punishment if you don't believe in an eye for an eye, but what about jail? and we can't just let this go by..." which is why i'm for bombing. not just afghanistan in general, but the government buildings and important infrastructure so they won't be able to function as a country until they fix that. and i'm not saying "fuck afghanistan" because you can't blame the people of a country for it's government's actions, which is why you have to blame the government. even though this was, apparently, a political group independent of the afghanistani government, they are harboring criminals who want us dead.

and that just don't fly with me.
