A short and succinct rant from yours truly. Regarding the newest spate of mass murders; whether it was the one inside a Charleston Church or the dozens of other various sundry around the country, I am fed up with the Violence in the US of A regardless of whether it is race related or just gratuitous. The violence in America dwarfs by several magnitudes of ten what we here in Europe, Canada and Asia experience.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">&#8220;Several Magnitudes of Ten&#8221; may seem like a vast exaggeration and for all intents and purposes it may be so. But if magnifying the extent to which the US of A have descended into Hell will aid in getting them out if it, I will take artistic licence in doing so in the hopes that highlighting\u00a0this malaise will aid in finding a long term cure. America needs to nurture its children into a more civil human model. But of course that won&#8217;t happen, as you need crazies to fight the ongoing wars a<span class=\"text_exposed_show\">round the world and to continue perpetrating them to keep the big industrial war machine business greased up and running like a perpetual clock.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><figure id=\"attachment_32601\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-32601\" style=\"width: 540px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/thebkmag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/neontn6dobatsoj3fwwtlfx66v1eaj_4304611948001_6e9abfea672c051865d78bdbb9852ab7_w540_h304.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-32601\" src=\"https:\/\/thebkmag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/neontn6dobatsoj3fwwtlfx66v1eaj_4304611948001_6e9abfea672c051865d78bdbb9852ab7_w540_h304.jpg\" alt=\"Mass Murder in the USA\" width=\"540\" height=\"304\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-32601\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Mass Murder in the USA<\/figcaption><\/figure><br \/>\n&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Oh and lest we\u00a0forget the corporately run private prisons. The USA has the highest prisoner population in the world&#8230;period! That seems to be quite the convenient coincidence. Or is it?\u00a0Prisons for Profit?. You would think that\u00a0would be a conflict of interest. No? Hell no&#8230;Prisoners for Profit works. It provides cheap labour and fills the coffers of those who benefit from human\u00a0misery. Kind of a modern form of &#8220;Legalised Slavery&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">It&#8217;s time that the US of A takes care of its own business before forcing its concept of what democracy is on others. Democracy in the USA is a misnomer. It is a sham, a parody of a once wonderful concept that has been replaced by a brutal militaristic state.
