Rant #29: Hate Is (Still) All Around
I was very disturbed to hear that a gunman had entered the Holocaust Museum in Washington, D.C., and opened fire.
What's worse, the alleged gunman is an 88 year old who has been fostering anti-Semitic hatred for basically his whole life.
What really gets me is that he has maintained a Web site, where he is able to spew forth his venomous attacks.
Is the Internet still the Wild, Wild West? Does anything still go on this electronic medium? Do those that allow these sites to exist have any modicum of decency?
I don't understand how a guy like this is able to get away with having such a Web site. Doesn't his Internet provider see how he is using their service? Do they care?
Evidently not. The gunman's site is one of virtually thousands that spew anti-Semitic crap, and people do visit these sites.
That's the scary thing--this hatred is out there, and there is little anybody can do to stop it, especially when it's all over the Internet.
I can't believe that people continue to believe that the Holocaust did not happen. I guess you believe what you want to believe, but not to believe that this actually happened is something so twisted to me that I simply cannot understand it.
My heart goes out to the security guard who took a bullet and died while doing his job ... from an 88-year-old piece of trash who should have been confined to some type of mental facility a long time ago.
