I ran today. Then I went to lunch, then I was having a pretty good day, chatting with the people I want to talk to, then some jackasses ran a truck through a Bastille Day celebration in Nice. I&#8217;m not going to call them &#8220;terrorists&#8221; from now on everyone is treated 100% equal. Asshole, the word is asshole. Doesn&#8217;t mater where, or why, asshole is the only word. No different than any other extremist asshole. Doesn&#8217;t matter why an asshole does what they do, only matters that they are assholes and the rest of us have to deal with the aftermath.<br \/>\nDear Assholes of the World:<br \/>\nHere&#8217;s the deal, fuck you, first off. Now let&#8217;s get on with this. I&#8217;ve gotten to the point, where as much as I hate military force for anything, I think the only thing to do is go in, real fast. Get rid of these Daesh assholes. Do NOT touch anything else, just get rid of these assholes, don&#8217;t fuck with Syria, don&#8217;t fuck with the Kurds, don&#8217;t fuck with Turkey, just go in, get these assholes and get out. Just get it to the point the relevant countries can handle it on their own and leave. And make a big deal about the fact the international community is just going in, taking care of these assholes who won&#8217;t stop being assholes all over the world, and then are leaving. No &#8220;winning hearts and minds&#8221;, no fucking &#8220;nation building&#8221;, that&#8217;s the stupid shit that created this mess in the first fucking place. Just go it, get shit done, get the fuck out.<br \/>\nThat&#8217;s how, I, a pacifist feels. I feel like nobody has the right to take anyone else&#8217;s life, but I honestly don&#8217;t see any other way to stop this mess. Because they don&#8217;t seem to get it. We just keep going. We&#8217;re not going to stop. Israel is a country, deal with it.\u00a0Are there things they do they shouldn&#8217;t do? Yes. But we can&#8217;t do anything about that when they can point to an existential threat and not be wrong about it.<br \/>\nYes, the rest of the world needs to stop meddling in the affairs of the Middle East in an attempt to get cheap oil. This is true too. But that won&#8217;t happen when people plow trucks through crowds of people celebrating in Nice. And it won&#8217;t happen when you&#8217;re suicide bombing Istanbul, or Baghdad , or anywhere else. This is obviously all pointed at the &#8220;soldiers&#8221; that are assholes.<br \/>\nBecause that&#8217;s the other part, your &#8220;leader&#8221; assholes, don&#8217;t give a fuck about any of this. They only care about land, money, resources. They want to control the land, the money, and the resources. They want these things. They don&#8217;t care if you live or die, they don&#8217;t care about a religion, they don&#8217;t care about a region, they don&#8217;t care about Israel, they don&#8217;t care about America, they don&#8217;t care about you, they only care about making money, and holding resources. They just want power, and they don&#8217;t give a fuck about you, or anything, or anyone else. You&#8217;re getting played for chumps just like all the fucktards who want to vote for Drumpf. All the assholes that support Putin, or any other asshole &#8220;world leader&#8221;. They&#8217;re all cut from the same cloth and don&#8217;t give a shit or a fuck about their country, their people, or anything other than themselves, their profits, and what they own. All of these people would sell their own fucking children if they had the slightest inkling it would be a long-term profit for them. They have no hearts, they have no souls. Stop, just fucking stop.<br \/>\nWe all need to pick up more books about science, discovery, humanity. We need to put down our books about fantasy, mythology, and utopia. Educate yourselves. Not on the fucking internet. Pick up some real fucking books, learn how to do things. Don&#8217;t listen to leaders and authority. Go grow a garden, feed your children, teach them how to fix things. Work on fixing things, not destroying them. Does the system need to be replaced? Yes, but you can&#8217;t do that by destroying the world, you can&#8217;t use the same methods we used to get to this point to fix the problems caused by the methods. If that&#8217;s your plan you will fail. Even if you gain the upper hand, you will end up facing the same problems you are causing now. That is definite. So learn to fix, not to destroy. That&#8217;s how things will happen. If not you are setting yourselves more atrocities to befall you. Because your tactics will only cause you more pain in the end.<br \/>\nAlright, I&#8217;m done, I&#8217;m pissed. In conclusion assholes, fuck you.<br \/>\n<iframe allow=\"autoplay\" class=\"youtube_embed_iframe\"    allowFullScreen=\"true\" style=\"width:640px; height:385px\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/Zy73Bpq0QkE?autoplay=0&theme=dark&loop=0&fs=1&showinfo=1&modestbranding=0&iv_load_policy=1&color=red&autohide=1&disablekb=0&enablejsapi=1&version=3\"><\/iframe><br \/>\nAnd make no mistake, you are fuck fascist fuckheads.<br \/>\nHave fun, keep running, and remember; if Gil can run then so can you!<\/p>\n<div class=\"sharedaddy sd-sharing-enabled\"><div class=\"robots-nocontent sd-block sd-social sd-social-icon sd-sharing\"><h3 class=\"sd-title\">Share this:<\/h3><div class=\"sd-content\"><ul><li class=\"share-pinterest\"><a rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" data-shared=\"sharing-pinterest-1029\" class=\"share-pinterest sd-button share-icon no-text\" href=\"http:\/\/www.gilcanrun.com\/?p=1029&amp;share=pinterest\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Click to share on Pinterest\"><span><\/span><span class=\"sharing-screen-reader-text\">Click to share on Pinterest (Opens in new window)<\/span><\/a><\/li><li class=\"share-facebook\"><a rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" data-shared=\"sharing-facebook-1029\" class=\"share-facebook sd-button share-icon no-text\" href=\"http:\/\/www.gilcanrun.com\/?p=1029&amp;share=facebook\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Click to share on Facebook\"><span><\/span><span class=\"sharing-screen-reader-text\">Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window)<\/span><\/a><\/li><li class=\"share-reddit\"><a rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" data-shared=\"\" class=\"share-reddit sd-button share-icon no-text\" href=\"http:\/\/www.gilcanrun.com\/?p=1029&amp;share=reddit\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Click to share on Reddit\"><span><\/span><span class=\"sharing-screen-reader-text\">Click to share on Reddit (Opens in new window)<\/span><\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"#\" class=\"sharing-anchor sd-button share-more\"><span>More<\/span><\/a><\/li><li class=\"share-end\"><\/li><\/ul><div class=\"sharing-hidden\"><div class=\"inner\" style=\"display: none;\"><ul><li class=\"share-email\"><a rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" data-shared=\"\" class=\"share-email sd-button share-icon no-text\" href=\"http:\/\/www.gilcanrun.com\/?p=1029&amp;share=email\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Click to email this to a friend\"><span><\/span><span class=\"sharing-screen-reader-text\">Click to email this to a friend (Opens in new window)<\/span><\/a><\/li><li class=\"share-twitter\"><a rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" data-shared=\"sharing-twitter-1029\" class=\"share-twitter sd-button share-icon no-text\" href=\"http:\/\/www.gilcanrun.com\/?p=1029&amp;share=twitter\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Click to share on Twitter\"><span><\/span><span class=\"sharing-screen-reader-text\">Click to share on Twitter (Opens in new window)<\/span><\/a><\/li><li class=\"share-end\"><\/li><li class=\"share-print\"><a rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" data-shared=\"\" class=\"share-print sd-button share-icon no-text\" href=\"http:\/\/www.gilcanrun.com\/?p=1029\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Click to print\"><span><\/span><span class=\"sharing-screen-reader-text\">Click to print (Opens in new window)<\/span><\/a><\/li><li class=\"share-tumblr\"><a rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" data-shared=\"\" class=\"share-tumblr sd-button share-icon no-text\" href=\"http:\/\/www.gilcanrun.com\/?p=1029&amp;share=tumblr\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Click to share on Tumblr\"><span><\/span><span class=\"sharing-screen-reader-text\">Click to share on Tumblr (Opens in new window)<\/span><\/a><\/li><li class=\"share-end\"><\/li><li class=\"share-linkedin\"><a rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" data-shared=\"sharing-linkedin-1029\" class=\"share-linkedin sd-button share-icon no-text\" href=\"http:\/\/www.gilcanrun.com\/?p=1029&amp;share=linkedin\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Click to share on LinkedIn\"><span><\/span><span class=\"sharing-screen-reader-text\">Click to share on LinkedIn (Opens in new window)<\/span><\/a><\/li><li class=\"share-end\"><\/li><\/ul><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I don&#8217;t really know anymore.
