Traitors, Liars, Killers

This story is more upsetting to me than any other. This former American, Adam Yehiye Gadhan, is a traitor of the worst kind. The words former American, are mine, and it is what I hold this terrorist to be. Basically he is saying that if we don't convert to Islam we can expect to die. How dare you! Who do you think you are? You are so weak minded that you turn against your homeland to take up with terrorists, and threaten your own people? Yes, you are weak minded, as is anyone who follows you in your cause. In this great country you are free to speak your mind, to disagree, to create movements explaining your cause. But what do you do? You pack your bags and take your sorry ass over to another country and befriend and buddy up with people whose sole agenda is to destroy our way of life and mass murder innocent people. People who have no quams killing innocent people all in the name of what? Islam? Give me a break. You are asking people to convert to being murderers, liars and traitors. Either convert or we will kill you. That's a great message, you idiot. Here's a thought, shave your face, take the turban off, resign your citizenship to this great country, and then make a tape explaining to the parent-less children of the victims of 9-11 exactly why you have done what you did, and why your moronic ideals are so important that their families had to die. You are a terrorist, not an American. You are a terrorist, not a religous man! You are a terrorist, you are a killer! Shame on you!

These are the words of the traitor:

"Instead of killing yourself for Bush ... why not surrender to the truth (of Islam), escape from the unbelieving army and join the winning side. Time is running out so make the right choice before it's too late," he said.
"You know that if you die as an unbeliever in battle against the Muslims you're going straight to Hell without passing 'Go,'" Gadahn said on the video, addressing American soldiers. "You know you're considered by Bush and his bunch of warmongers as nothing more than expendable cannon fodder ... You know they couldn't care less about your safety and well-being."
"We send a special invitation (to convert to Islam) to all of you fighting Bush's crusader pipedream in Afghanistan, Iraq and wherever else 'W' has sent you to die. You know the war can't be won," he said, using Bush's nickname.
Gadahn also urged other Americans to convert to Islam.
"It is time for the unbelievers to discard these incoherent and illogical beliefs," he said. "Isn't it the time for the Christians, Jews, Buddhists and atheists to cast off the cloak of the spiritual darkness which enshrouds them and emerge into the light of Islam?"

Hey, Adam, I've got one for you - It is time for all traitorous Americans and the terrorists they blindly follow, to go to hell.

Salt Lake Grandma Puts Mugger in His Place

A 75 year old grandma from Salt Lake City, Utah, Betty Horton, took on a mugger in a grocery store parking lot. To read the full story click here.

I was watching Good Morning America this morning and saw the interview with Betty and immediately thought, "This is a great story for my blog". This is a story of inspiration, and all Americans should pay attention.

Betty, you are my hero, we need more people like you in the world. Although what she did was not safe, I would do the same thing in her shoes. The only way to bring an end to crime is to put your foot down and refuse to let it happen. I'm sure the last thing this 30 year old mugger expected was to be chased down by his 75 year old victim. Betty said she ran across the parking lot, yelling for help, and caught the man down an alley around the corner from the grocery store parking lot.
She says to the mugger, "What's the matter with you? I want my purse back and when I get it back, there's a gun in there and I'm gonna shoot you in the ear or the toe!"
The mugger apologized, explaining that he was down on his luck. Betty, being the true American she is, told the young man that all he had to do was ask for some help, instead of mugging her. She put $3.00 in his hand and said, "Now get the hell out of here the police are on their way."
Betty's response is to be admired. She helped the one who tried to hurt her, and took a huge chance on getting hurt in the process.
She proclaimed on GMA this morning, "My Irish temper got the best of me!"

Way to go, Betty!

Is it really foolish to chase down a mugger? Is it more foolish to just let it happen? If criminals know that we will fight back, will it lower crimes? Who knows, but I am taking a lesson from this 75 year old brave woman. Like her, I will refuse to give in to criminals. And like her, I will do what I can to help others who are down on their luck. If more of us reach out to help people in need, maybe we can help prevent future crimes. Who knows, just a humble American opinion.
