Headline news is out of control these days. Are stories like this a case of ‘developing story’ or irresponsible journalism, and outright fearmongering? Fortunately, amidst all the chaos, some folks still have a level head on their shoulders, like Pastor Ronald Russell of Lighthouse Mexico Church of God in upstate New York. Pastor Russell vows to protect his parishioners, and in light of recent events, his message to the world is, “We say it again: we are not a gun free zone.”
And speaking of all the insanity and chaos we see today, however real or contrived, the epidemic of irredeemable viciousness and immorality is nowhere more abundantly demonstrated, than in the juxtaposition of this BuzzFeed News article yesterday, and the tragic story of Staff Sgt. Logan Melgar’s untimely death, which also incorporates the story of Petty Officer Anthony E. DeDolph, as well as the broader story of what the Intercept’s Matthew Cole has defined as “The Crimes of SEAL Team 6” which represents the endemic nature and culture of our society.
Ultimately, the answer lies in the words of Patrick Henry, whose sentiments of the sort were echoed by many of the Founders:
“I am not so much alarmed as at the apprehension [of the destruction of] the great pillars of all government and of social life, — I mean virtue, morality, and religion. This is the armor, my friend, and this alone, that renders us invincible. These are the tactics we should study. If we lose these, we are conquered, fallen indeed. … so long as our manners and principles remain sound, there is no danger.”
