Look, I'm not a hawk. I have a young family in Midwest America. To me, storming a busy city with guns and spraying bullets into crowds says very little about your personal bravery. The conviction that you are representing is nihilism, not some call for change. Justification for this kind of murder is the worst kind of cynicism. Call it honestly: It's no different than a lothesome mall shooter, except instead of some loser who can't think of another way to make a difference, the hopeless, suicidal self-loathing is caused by generations of failed ideology.
