THE OFFENSIVE MACHINE

I propose that certain parts of the world change the name of the INTERNET to that of THE OFFENSIVE MACHINE.

Because they seem to be willing to burn and kill because they are outraged and offended by things they see on the internet.

The attacks on embassies in the middle east come to mind. The attack on the one in Libya is now thought to be a coordinated terrorist attack. It was well armed and well executed. More than your "angry mob" would be if they were merely offended. So someone used this bad trailer (posted to youtube on July 2nd) for a movie that will never be made to rally a mob to be used as cover for this attack. Funny how the timing was 9/11. So I find their offense scurrilous and opportunistic.

The mobs are not educated or very worldly and some could be illiterate. And add to that high unemployment and a bleak outlook on life. So when you don't have anything and little hope that your life will get better, it's easy for you to be manipulated and turned into an angry crowd.

So these countries which are exploding in outrage need to change the name of the internet to THE OFFENSIVE MACHINE.

Do an experiment. Go to Google and type in the most vile offensive thing you can think of.  900,000 options for you to see will appear within .53 seconds.

It's easy to be offended if you only read one book. It's easy to be offended if you don't think for yourself and believe what someone in authority (that you put in authority over you) tells you without question.

So, now I must post this to THE OFFENSIVE MACHINE. I have the right to free speech. freedom-of-speech It's in the Constitution of the United States. You may not agree with what I write. It may offend you. As far as I'm concerned you have the right to post any comment you like. I may get offended. (Probably not)

But to burn things and kill people because you are offended. That's just offensive.
