"The silent
threat of the lone-wolf terrorist"
An utterly stupid piece of writing.
We have always, always had "lone wolf" monsters.
How do you think legends like vampires and other monsters
became so fixed in people's minds?
And what do you think the likes of John Wayne Gacy and
Charles Manson and Robert Picton and Clifford Olsen represent?
They are psychopathic serial and mass killers, one of
nature's many mistakes, from civilized society's point of view, in its endless
evolutionary experiments.
There may have been a time when such people served a
purpose, as in wars in the times of walled cities.
So what purpose does it serve to call such people
"terrorists"?
Or indeed to attribute any politics or ideology to their
love of killing and torturing human beings?
Nothing, but it feeds the ignorant nightmarish fears being
promoted by Islamophobics night and day.
This is "high class" garbage.
