We are taught as children that all people are God’s Children. We are all different in many ways, but we are all created in God’s image. That thinking may have worked in years gone by, but it is certainly challenged when you watch the news and see the horrific acts that some of our “brothers and sisters” can impose on others. These mindless acts make no sense and have no purpose other than venting incredible anger. These people have no respect for life, and it seems their sole purpose on earth is to wreak havoc and terrorize others for their personal pleasure.

There was a situation, for lack of a better word, over the weekend where an illegal migrant came upon a woman sleeping on an idle subway car in New York City and proceeded to use a cigarette lighter to set the woman’s clothes afire. He then did nothing to help her or extinguish the flames. He sat on a bench and watched this poor, innocent woman burn to death in front of him. What can you say about this man? Does he have mental and emotional problems? Was he abused and mistreated by the system? Are these excuses that should make us feel empathy and sympathy for this person? Or should we just call it like it is; this man is an animal and does not deserve to be free amongst human beings. These animals are not broken down by species; they are simply animals. Thanks to Joe Biden, Kamala Harris, and Alejandro Mayorkas, we have no idea how many of them are walking among us. That is why they all must be rounded up and returned to sender.

The killer of the United Healthcare CEO, Luigi Mangione, is from a different breed. He kills a man in cold blood and shoots him in the back on a New York City street because he thinks insurance companies are out to rip off their customers. Mangione is homegrown, Ivy League-educated, and came from money but found the pound. Regardless of his upbringing and silver spoon, his act puts him on the same plateau as the illegal at the subway or the teenage girl who decided one day she would go to a school in Wisconsin and kill people. They have lost all feelings, emotions, and moral compass.

We have to find a two-pronged solution. We have to identify and help the mentally and emotionally challenged before they become a name on 24/7 news. We also have to give Donald Trump and Tom Homan the tools and resources to send these gang members and other evil people who crossed our border and are now terrorizing suburban America back to the Venezuelan prisons they came from. While we are watching these people take over apartment buildings in Colorado and burn people on subways, Venezuela brags about their new low crime rates. Joe Biden solved the crime problem in Central America and other countries around the globe by inviting them here. Finally, we have to solve the broken morals of America where people on the streets, people in the media, even a female Senator from Massachusetts, heeps praise to Mangione for pushing back against the evil American companies who have finally pushed too far.
