Unless you’ve been living under a rock, you’ve no doubt heard about the rich Nigerian that tried to blow up a NorthWest Airlines jet from Nigeria to Detroit.
This story kinda touches on my feelings on the subject: LINK, as the media seems to be taking the wrong approach to the issue.

Stories on the Liberal and ‘moderate’ sites are all focusing on the Nigerian’s sadness and depression, but here’s the thing: he was a rich socialite with all the gifts in life most people dream of. So booo hoooo that this rich kid was depressed and lonely; how many Americans do you think are depressed and/or lonely? Now how many Americans use that depression to radicalize their faith and try to blow up an airplane?
Zero.

Why? Because depressed and lonely people just eat their sadness away, they don’t join Islamic groups and try to kill people. So why not start calling a duck a duck and stop trying to make us feel bad for someone that had intentions on killing innocent people?!
I fail to see why it’s OK to demonize Arabs when they try to blow up planes, but when it’s a black kid from Africa, the political correctness police scour the Liberal airwaves to make sure we don’t make any black people in America mad or make them think the news is attacking his color/race. It’s sickening and only shows how pathetic the political correctness movement is and how it does nothing to curtail/quell the racism in this country.

He was a terrorist. Let’s stick with that and stop trying to play our heartstrings.
