Thoughts on Terrorism

Some other quick thoughts, then I'm out of here:
La Shawn Barber is angry with the media, including us bloggers, for not reporting the terrorism incident in Russia, where Islamist terrorists have taken children hostage. I'm guilty too, due only to light blogging, and maybe a bit of (I'm ashamed to admit) - it's over there, so why worry? I'm wrong to think that, cause too much of that type of apathy will only result in it happening over here too. So I mention the story now. Thanks, La Shawn, for your rebuke. La Shawn covers the story well in a later post.

Here's a way to make such acts of terrorism less likely: arm our teachers, as Israel and Thailand have done for several years now.

Thanks for the link, Joel! I blogged about the tragedy today, but this time I let God do the talking. ;)
