Sex in violence.
by. Christopher Jones
Let's take a look at the recent "tragedy" at Virginia Tech, or better yet, the little boy who
killed all those poor, poor people. whatever. Yesterday, I was standing in the pool hall, like
I do, and they had the radio on, like they do, and on the radio, like they do, they gave
details about the killer, and they divulged that he was a writer... and that his writings were
violent. hmm.... well, let's take a look at that.
William Shakespeare, Stephen King, Quintin Tarantino, Bram Stoker, et al .... all could be
considered to have violent writings. And have never walked into a McDonald's and
spoiled someone's Egg McMuffin. They haven't. Haven't killed one fucking person, and to
make it a little more personal. Me, an unpublished, kind of frustrated writer, which I'm sure
is what that kid was. Yeah, me and him probably have a lot more in common than you
would realise. I have not gone into school and killed a bunch of motherfuckers. And, let's
take that a little further, back to Columbine. I was the kid in the black leather trench,
listening to their "violent, subversive" music. KMFDM, Marilyn Manson, and shit those kids
have probably never heard of. I was ridiculed and made fun of, and I may be armed to the
teeth with enough violent ideas to put those fucks to shame. I could. But, the key word in
there is, could.
It was not the writing, nor the music, that has a damn thing to do with why that kid killed
32 people. It has nothing to do with a god damned thing. It doesn't!!! Plain and
simple. The kid was just a psychopath. There was no outside stimulus, only a malfunction
in the kids brain. And yes, I say this without bothering to read the news reports, because
A, the news reports are spun, and B, the media always tries to find something to attack,
well, maybe not the media, but the bible thumping Xians do. In Columbine, it was KMFDM.
They went after a band that had a song entitled the Drug AGAINST War.
I guess, the point of all their hullabaloo is this - They fear what they don't understand, and
they don't understand, either because they're too old, or their small minded religious
dogmatic minds just can't wrap around anyone being different.
Any one can be a murderer. It's not a certain microcosm of the planet. There isn't a country
that breeds murderers (Amerika and Germany excluded, and on the subject of Germany,
Adolf Hitler was a frustrated painter). There isn't, any one can kill 32 people. The fact that
the kid has violent writings doesn't mean a goddamned thing.
Now, what about Soldiers who join the army in a time of war just to go to some foreign
country to kill people? We don't hear about their fascinations, be it porn, music or
literature. We don't hear about them being evil and vile and shit, why? Because they're
dubbed patriots. But war, is a legal form of murder. Call a spade a spade, war is
murder. But they're Patriots because they're government funded. Or what's more,
something a little more personal, CIA Operatives (also known as ASSASSINS.) We don't
hear about them being psychopaths, and why not?
That troubles me. A lone gunmen going into class and killing his peers is wrong, but a
Government Assassin doing something similar, be it a dictator or someone who didn't
donate enough money... they're okay. Hell, even out and out hitmen for the mob, when they
get busted, they don't get all antsy about them listening to Frank fucking Sinatra. WHY?
BECAUSE ART HAS NO FUCKING BEARING ON MURDER!
Case. Fucking. Closed.
