‘We were feeling vulnerable again.’  This was stated by some nameless politician on the TV.  But it could have been uttered by almost any politician after the bombing at the Boston Marathon.  It is all rhetoric.  They don’t speak the truth.  There are no guarantees.  We live in a dangerous and unpredictable world.  It always has been.  It will happen again.  People are murdered every day by guns in the US.

It goes beyond rhetoric. ‘Malicious politicians with nefarious schemes.’  this is a line from a song.  Isn’t that the truth?  The politicians will use this incident to take away more civil liberties.  Our rights have been taken away from us one by one.  All in the name of freedom.  We will protect you from bombings and mass murderers.  The fact is those in power can’t prevent such incidents.  They lie and step by step take away our freedoms and we let them because we are scared.  And want protection, which they really can’t guarantee.  They lie and are thieves.  It is the politicians we need protection from.
