The Mass Murder Cycle

The Mass Murder Cycle - Todd Strandberg - https://www.raptureready.com/category/nearing-midnight/

 

There have been at least a dozen times in the history of Rapture Ready that I've written a Nearing Midnight article about some mass murder event. I've never produced an article that had two such events that occurred within days of each other. As you all know, 22 people were killed in El Paso, and 9 people were killed in Dayton.

 

The pointless loss of life is always the most distressing thing, but I am increasingly bothered by how methodical the media and politicians have become in reacting to these events. The press rushes in to milk out all the emotional points from the victims. Then they place the blame on Republicans, the NRA and Fox News for fomenting hate; never mind the fact that the shooters were once again fans of Democratic causes. Finally, we are reminded that all gun violence can be solved by us turning over our weapons to the government.

 

The liberal media can get my blood pleasure up with some of the most subtle remarks. One Yahoo news article simply said that Trump broke his silence over the El Paso shooting. The reporter was sneakily implying that Trump shared some blame in the tragedy, and he was at a rare loss for words. Another reporter did even better while going after Senate leader Mitch McConnell. While blaming McConnell for inaction, he noted that he was the current leader of the Senate. The reporter must have physic powers that senses balance of power is about to switch sides.

 

With the news business long dead, we have propagandists manning the news desks. These political hacks are longing for the days of the Obama presidency. It was eight peaceful years where no one mass murder events took place. To put this work of fiction to bed, someone created a list of events that remind us of the rivers of blood that plagued Obama's term:

 

• July 23, 2015 - Lafayette, LA - 3 dead, 9 injured
• July 16, 2015 - Chattanooga, TN- 5 dead, 3 injured
• June 17, 2015 - Charleston, SC- 9 dead
• February 10, 2015 - Chapel Hill, NC- 3 dead
• May 23, 2014 - University of California, Santa Barbara. - 7 dead (including gunman)
• April 2, 2014 - Fort Hood (Second Shooting). - 3 dead, 12 injured
• September 16, 2013 - Washington, DC. - 12 dead
• December 14, 2012 - Newtown, Conn. - 27 dead (including gunman)
• September 27, 2012 - Minneapolis, Minn.- 7 dead (including gunman), 2 injured
• August 5, 2012 - Oak Creek, Wis.- 7 dead (including gunman), 4 injured
• July 20, 2012 - Aurora, Colo. - 12 dead, 59 injured
• May 31, 2012 - Seattle, Wash.- 6 dead
• April 2, 2012 - Oakland, Calif. - 7 dead
• February 22, 2012 - Norcross, Ga. - 5 dead (including gunman)
• October 12, 2011 - Seal Beach, Calif. - 8 dead, 1 injured
• January 8, 2011 - Tucson, Ariz. - 6 dead, 14 injured
• August 3, 2010 - Manchester, Conn. - 9 dead (including gunman), 2 injured
• November 29, 2009 - Parkland, Wash. - 5 dead (including gunman)
• November 5, 2009 - Fort Hood, Texas - 13 dead, 30 injured (including gunman)
• April 3, 2009 - Binghamton, N.Y. - 14 dead (including gunman), 4 injured
• March 29, 2009 - Carthage, N.C. - 8 dead, 3 injured (including gunman)
• March 10, 2009 - Geneva County, Ala. - 11 dead (including gunman), 6 injured

 

The most important list is a constantly updating mass murder list. This record of ever-changing highest death counts is a testament of how crazy our society has become:

 

1. 2017 Las Vegas shooting; 58 killed
2. 2016 Orlando nightclub shooting; 49 dead
3. 2012 Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting; 27 dead
4. 2017 Sutherland Springs church shooting; 26 dead
5. 1991 Luby's shooting; 23 dead
6. 2019 El Paso shooting; 22 killed
7. 1984 San Ysidro McDonald's massacre; 21 murdered
8. 2018 Stoneman Douglas High School shooting left 17 dead
9. 1966 University of Texas tower shooting; 16 killed

 

There is another mass murder list that is taking place in our major cities. We don't read reports about these deaths because they occur in the single digits. The city of Chicago during the first week of this month had shootings that left seven people dead and another 52 people wounded. The victims ranged from 5 to 56 years old.

 

The city's emergency rooms were so badly stretched to the limit that Mt. Sinai Hospital in Douglas Park was forced to go on bypass for several hours. All wounded were directed to the city's four other trauma units.

 

It should be obvious that the reason for the violence is that our society has drifted from biblical moral values. If someone dares to bring up sin as the possible cause, they get shouted down.

 

When Chicago voters elected Lori Lightfoot as mayor, I was very disappointed that she was a lesbian. I was absolutely mortified that there is not a single Republican among the 12 people running for that office. You would think that after 40 years of failed socialism, some part of the voters would seek an alternative. If California continued having major earthquakes, the current mentality would call for the election of a Satanist for the governorship.

 

The mass murder cycle cannot continue on forever. Eventually, we are going to reach a point where lawlessness will make people willing to give up their freedom to have some form of security. When we become so blind as to make such a choice, we no longer deserve to have either.

 

"The god of this age has blinded the minds of unbelievers, so that they cannot see the light of the gospel that displays the glory of Christ, who is the image of God" (2 Corinthians 4:4).
