I am as shocked and angered as the next guy. I feel for the families and morn the dead. I hate what has happened and I want blood. I want to see who has done this pay. I want them all to pay.
I think in a way they got what they wanted with this attack. Our way of life has been interrupted. We have stopped doing what we love. Many of us have stopped working as hard as normal. I know all yesterday I was in a red haze of shock and anger. Is this not what a terrorist attack is about? Making us shift from normal to a holding mode of shock anger and fright? We need to get over this, we need to move on. We need to take our revenge but in the mean time we need to function like it is any other day. To do anything else it to allow these sub human monsters to win.
We as the United States of America need to stand tall, to wipe the blood from our cheek and bandage it, and stare back in defiance, going on as we always have and will, waiting for the time to bring out the big stick, and make them pay.
Am I wrong?
