Hope I am not going to get myself in trouble over this. I had my usual afternoon java at starbucks, the usuals were there, a agrument insued. The agrument was if suicide bombers were cowards or not? All the clutter aside, talking about the actual strapping a bomb to yourself and knowing you are going to die. How can this be the act of a coward? I am not talking about the reasons. I kept my mouth shut, having had my fill of fighting for awhile anyway.
It got darn ugly and personal. These people have known each other for years, and its pretty amazing how a topic can cause so much friction between friends. Someone asked me what I thought, and I said I am not thinking today. But seriously I cannot see how it is an act of cowardice, I see it more has desperation, no light at the end of the tunnel, like most people that committ suicide. I am being serious here, how can you explain to me that killing yourself is the act of a coward, I would like to know.
The old jester angus did tell me something that gave me food for thought, he said when people agrue and get personal about it, it means they don't know what they are talking about. I will have to mull that one over.
