If the media roll rolls again, I take always happy to brush.
A common direction for me has something threatening, and I imagine it pictorially a bison herd in front of the drums on the prairie diversity of opinion; in the distance, perhaps lurks an abyss, which the excited herd animals do not perceive the drums, snorting and stamping of conspecifics is simply overpowering and drowned out any warning signals. The clouds of steam, the smoke from nostrils and ears of snorting media armada make, deaf and block the receptors of the olfactory bulb to sense the stench of actual scandals.
When I feel that something should be scandalized and someone will trigger certain emotions in me, like a Pavlovian dog saliva, then I block, so something goes against the grain, and then I just brush against the grain. I would hardly have believed that I would have to write something about guns and gun laws: I am surprised to themselves.
My childhood was marked by strict pacifism my parents, and .a itself. in a comprehensive ban on weapons in our children practically expressed. The reason for this ban was acting under painted and staged and so understood by us children: because our parents had both lived through the war. Both knew shoot what and bomb was, and I can do so only write because my mother was on that day that her house was wiped out by a direct hit in the basement of the house next door to assist with her mother and siblings to a neighbor, the whether the constant air attacks threatened to lose his mind. My father carried by the horror of the entire war always his house key with you for constant memory of his firm resolve to come back home.
Before this specific experience background of the parents, it was our fate to have to always go through the Rhenish carnival as a cook, gardener or flower girl as children. That was damn hard. For a (toy) gun or any other "weapon apparently" did not come into the house. It was very, very hard not to be allowed mitballern, how gladly I would sometimes bang leaflets inserted in a Colt so and played Indian and Cowboy. But fate had it otherwise.
Specifically proscribed was the gesture to direct his index finger and thumb, or any toy gun at a human, along with the corresponding acoustic music. It was just explained to us why it was not a game and no fun. This insight into the obscenity of the shooting gesture I've probably internalized deeply, for I must confess that it makes me still angry when such a small Bubi somewhere turns his plastic gun or his hand on me, "bang-bang" daherplärrt.
In addition to that it was known to us in the years of childhood long time: plug out! The week had seven days off tv. That was almost harder. Because I had Monday at school getting all my Verstellkunst registers and Fantasy muster, to cover up that I once missed all shipments on weekend. With this television, and therefore violence-free zone then cleaned up the testosterone my brother. He rehearsed the uprising against this utter "Verstaubtheit" our parents.
I can at any rate look back on almost media-violent childhood; I had not seen thousands of murders, tortures, rapes and hysterical family soaps (but no flippers and Bonanza, sob!); therefore also my first appearance in matters of love must have been quite authentic - just no inner Deja vu.
All forms of life are to me equally sacred, and strict non-violence characterizes my path, though I admittedly do not like the Indian Jains wear a face mask to avoid inhaling insects and no small broom carry with to clean my life of microorganisms before they could deaden my kick. However, my one slalom run in the woods to a road or a track ants path appears as a matter of course. Violence - including that I live almost entirely vegetarian, and if an egg even want to decorate my table, then I must be absolutely certain that it was laid by a very happy hen. The milk must come from a cow that has definitely seen the sun and their horns were not sawed off kuhschänderisch.
I kill intentionally and with a certain passion really only a living thing: the mosquito that have prevented me from sleeping. I give my best not to hate or hate hunters do; because the experience of life shows that we have to face things with a certain serenity; otherwise it may well be a fare as one of my friend: She had worked as a young girl in the middle of a middle-class household with a corresponding kitchen lebensreformerische, vegetarian diet and already started as teenagers, separately prepare the food for themselves. Wen she married at the end: Of course a passionate hunter and meat eater.
And so now I write about guns and shootings ...
The massacre of a poor, possibly abused by others and under psychotropic people and its consequences are a terrible event; he is like a bomb that falls. All that were in the radius of the bomb funnel, are affected. The event is terrible, but limited.
In contrast, the shootings of elected politicians under the guise of legality have a completely different dimension. Above all, they are not for a day to end, but they work much, much further. You have a crime quality obtained, which not only kills the present and causing damage, but even allowing for influencing the past and future and this wipe out in extreme cases.
This awareness came to me based on killing sprees a particular quality or dimension of international law during the war in Iraq:
Known, is indeed in the area of present-day Iraq, Mesopotamia of the Euphrates and the Tigris, the "cradle" of humanity. The Sumerians, Assyrians and Babylonians brought forth here the earliest civilizations of mankind, here came the oldest epic in the world: the Epic of Gilgamesh; here came the first legal text of the world: the Codex of the Babylonian king Hammurabi. In Iraq there are 12,000 registered archaeological sites, join thousands of officially unregistered places.
After the invasion of the allied troops in 2003 and the bombing more than 15,000 exhibits were stolen from the Museum of Antiquities in Baghdad. The U.S. military looked this unprecedented looting to stand by, yes, it was reported that worked specifically "on the list" for clients. The plundering of the gold reserves of the Iraqi state bank had gone against it militarily taut and under strict supervision vonstatten.
In addition, it was reported that the U.S. military, as one in Hilla instituted a military base, 2600 year old sites for helicopter landing sites and tank parking einebnete - close to the Hanging Gardens of Babylon, one of the seven wonders of the world. Then destroyed Polish soldiers with heavy armor nor the ancient stone floors and filled the rubble in sandbags that should protect them from attacks.
To date, only 3,000 stolen objects have resurfaced. 1600 could be confiscated in Europe and the USA in neighboring countries transform. By the lawless situation, the depletion and the general chaos but permanent Plünderungsfeldzüge are to complain to the archaeological sites by Einheimnische and antiques hunters across the region in recent years. Some sites are already irretrievably destroyed, according to the archaeologists on site. You will never be able to be reconstructed more.
Thus, not only a large part of the history of Iraq is destroyed, but a large part of the cultural memory of all mankind.
In contrast, the saturation bombing and the destruction of historic city centers during World War II show only as a forward this rampage called "extinction of the past".
But there is a further dimension of the rampage: The destruction of the future. It is linked with the barrel have used depleted uranium such places as Iraq and Afghanistan wars. Fitted with depleted uranium projectiles are at the very military to ANY because of their high penetrating power: you cut through a tank like a butter knife. Upon impact with a target form finest uranium and uranoxidhaltige air particles that can freely penetrate into the lungs and not retrievable, of course, into the soil and enter the groundwater. The half-life of this uranium-rich, ultra fine dust is 4.5 billion years; the rate of decay of the radionuclides with the release of radioactive radiation is so extremely slow.
The placed through this ammunition in the environment radiant dust we made responsible for the increase horrendous birth defects, the increase of leukemia and cancer in the countries concerned and premature death among the population but also with returning Allied soldiers. Even under former Allied soldiers more, the cases of genetic defects in their children and unexplained illnesses and "syndromes".
The public appearance and the personal commitment of Prof. Dr. Siegwart-Horst Günther ( "Uranium Bullets: Heavy injured soldiers, malformed newborns, dying children" , Ahriman-Verlag) has put this crime against the future of entire regions into consciousness. Also, the documentary by Frieder Wagner (death dust / Deadly Dust).
Sadly, one must, however, still speak of a taboo in mainstream media, which prevents this rampage is finally stopped and put on the agenda of all Sunday-speaking politicians who are endowed with incredible fervor and with fantastic efficiency when it comes to also remove the last shooters Captain tradition his rifle and the last archaeologists to snatch his hand ax collection, but are attacked by equally fantastic cowardice and toothless when it comes to stop the rampage of uranium munitions.
