A national tragedy in Orlando
I wasn't going to feed into this media fear extravaganza and chyme in
my most arrogant opinion about religion, sexuality, gun rights, foreign
policy etc; or give some Oscar Speech turning the tragedy inward toward
myself and how sad i am, how good I am for lending my thoughts and
prayers to aid in the situation. By no means do I want to minimize this
event, but before your fear turns to hatred, to avoid checking under
your bed tonight for the Ghost of Osama Bin Laden; just a reminder
you have a 1 in 20 million chance of getting killed in a terrorist
attack. A person is more likely to die in a plane accident, get shot by
cops, drown in a bathtub, be burned alive in a building fire, or be
killed from the Sun by way of heatstroke, than from a terrorist attack.
