Demo Hassan does a wild rant: To which i say: there is impermanence but there is no finish line. so ya just might as well live like a mofo and don't look back. Why? Because you can't even if you wanted to. It's always been 'now' and always will be.

Ishmael's ax destroys the Idol made of Golden plated Cow and made Palestinian people to convert to God worshipping. Golden cow is a symbol of worshipping debauchery. Evangelical's didn't do a good job of spreading the true message of the Bible. The whole society is ill and numbed down. There is no true morality of right and wrong. He is a product of this sick society, modern day Babylonia.

So may be the case with Mary Winkler. Why is there so much sympathy for her and not for Cho? Does anybody know what he has gone through in his deep mind? Or do you think you DON'T HAVE TO KNOW because he is not your kind? Racial kookery must stop !!!!!
