The NEW Soylent Green
A Moses-like figure stands before the mic at an NRA convention and thunders, “I will give you my gun when you pry it from my cold, dead fingers.”
At the end of the sci-fi film Soylent Green, that same actor implores his detective boss to spread the news, “Soylent Green is people!”
In the movie, as the corpses pile up from an overcrowded, miserable earth, they are carted away in garbage trucks, secretly converted to Soylent Green, and fed back to the living. Soylent Green is better than the old Red and Yellow varieties, but it is scarce, so there are riots. A detective played by Charlton Heston discovers the deception. In a word, humanity has become cannibals, feeding upon itself, in a state-sanctioned system of cyclical violence.
Such is the world created by the NRA. It plays upon the irrational fears of a few to continue to thwart common sense gun legislation. Its largely successful lobbying over the years has distorted the original intention of the Second Amendment so much so that it has become almost impossible to pass laws more in keeping with the Founders’ intent.
When the bodies continue to pile up as a result of gun violence, and there is no legislative change primarily due to the lobbying of the NRA and the like, we are in every sense of the word disrespecting the dead and feeding upon ourselves.
In a state-sanctioned system of cyclical violence.
Like in Soylent Green.
And like the movie, the end result is not very pretty.
But go ahead. Watch the news.
Take another bite.

An OTD article on @Wikipedia reminds us that in addition to #Hamas terrorists who commit #MassShootings of innocent people including children in #Israel , there are also #Zionist terrorists such as #BaruchGoldstein who commit mass shootings of innocent people including children in #OccupiedTerritory of #Palestine.

@StillIRise1963 White or Aryan supremacy ideology is an expression of depraved indifference to & contempt for human life & humanity. As are (mass) shootings.
Guns don't belong into the hands of domestic extremists & terrorists.
Allowing them to purchase & possess guns means facilitating crimes.
No matter how the 2nd Amendment is interpreted.#DrainRacism #SaveLives #Jacksonville #MassShootings #WhiteSupremacy #Terrorism #EnemiesOfTheConstitution #EnemiesOfThePeople #GunControl #GunReduction

The #rightwing #obsession with the #genderidentity of the #Nashville #killer is #disgusting and telling. Although #massshootings have sadly become #commonplace, this recent #attack on a #Christian #school was #unique because the #perpetrator was #transgender.
