"Come out from among them and be ye separate, saith the Lord." (II Corinthians 6:17)

There is a white house, and there is
a stove. There are many desks
and writing on the blackboard. The world
is set against us. The world is set
and we against it. There is a window
next to the stove
and a carriage in the window. The horse
lays back its ears
and then shivers. If there is a heaven
heaven must have a door. If hell,
hell must have a hole.
We are set against the world.
When the door opens
the door of hell opens fire.
So does the gunman.

Even a dog knows the difference between being stumbled over and being kicked. Unfortantly, the president was reading about a goat.

This is RIPPED from the headlines, just like CSI, man! Nice one, Gil! Seriously though, what is with all the school shootings? Jesus Christ.
