As for the terrorist attacks...I have no words. At least, none that haven't already been said. My prayers will be with those affected tonight.

this kid at work pointed out that something like this happens about 2 or 3 times a week in baghdad
and its the same type of terrorist ideology vrs regular people just earnin enough to get by.
but most folks have become so callous to it in the last 2 years, it barely makes paper anymore.
however, when its white christians who die on free soil, whoa, hold the phone! its front and center, extra extra read all about it!

everybody really cut him down: "this is different," "london isnt in a warzone" "these people are innocent bystanders" and all that jazz,
and personally i didnt want to agree with him.
but he really had a great point
as far as the value of life goes, we really do have double standards

my opinion

well the thing with the London attacks, is that they probably expected something to happen.
any time the group of world leaders gathers for the summit they were just in, something always happens in that town.
