33 martyrs felled by Ismail's Ax -- Ibrihim's legacy

After the shootings, my best friend, a Korean-American lawyer in Washington, D.C., felt in his bones that somehow a Korean was responsible. He didn't know why. But, "one thing's for sure now," he said, "we can safely lay the model minority theme to rest."

In local news, a Japanese couple who were substance abusing narks ended up dead many years ago. I know of a Japanese man who was bullied a lot who murdered a white guy outside a bar in Sechelt. Both my grandfathers were fine with domestic abuse, being of the Meiji era. My own dad liked to verbally abuse my mother. I know of a Japanese-Canadian Anglican priest who was a child abuser that preyed on boys and young men, telling them to not tell anyone what he did to them, "or they would burn in hell for lying." However, not one mass murderer.

Though, in feudal Japan, Japanese Christians were crucified and starved in the 1600s. But this was politics. The Shoguns were afraid they'd end up like China, America and S.E. Asia, another vassal state to the economic predation called "Colonization."

And yes, there were internecine warfare between rival clans prior to Oda Nobunaga's reign of terror.

One clan got wiped out merely for supporting Buddhism, and then using their faith to control the Emperor of the time, who had gone Buddhist.

So much for Shinto being merely a nature-loving sect.

How does this relate to a 23-yr-old nutbar acting like a black street tough with his trusty Walther P22 and Glock 19?

The warrior pose.

Violent is evil. I do not side with my samurai ancestry at all. All that was achieved from all that bloodshed in ancient times is a bureaucratic zombie bleeding the economy back in Japan dry today.

We need to stop shutting out the sun if we don't want to create another lost generation.

This is why I feel that the Chos hiding out in Virginia is not going to win points for bringing closure to this tragedy.

33 martyrs felled by Ismail's Ax -- Ibrihim's legacy. This is terrorism, people. Let's remember that.

The only way to beat terrorism is to rush the gun and run from the knife.
