Terrorism: What You Can Do

Over the past week I have been completely horrified at the recent failed terror plot of a flight on Christmas day that nearly took the lives of 300 people.

I have asked myself over and over, as we all have..”Why do things like this happen?”.

Thankfully, this time we were spared.

To me, the survivor of some serious emotional battles in my life, I have a feeling inside as if I might have an understanding to some small degree as to what goes on inside a person like this. The bomber was clearly a troubled young man, and the simple fact is that when we don’t deal with our issues in life, they will deal with us.

As a result, he cried out for attention, most likely the only way he knew how. Don’t get me wrong, I do not support his cause or feel sorry for this man. In my opinion, they should hang him high for sure.

What this would be terrorist did is completely wrong and totally unjustifiable.
