Shoot a cat.
A cat, is eating, destroying, removing birds from my bird feeder.
If the cat ate birds I considered, ‘bad’, not a problem that cat can do whatever it wants.
If the cat ate birds I considered, ‘good’, the cat gotta go.
I Kill the cat, because I made a decision about what it was doing,
Not just because it was a cat.
I kill the cat with a trap, poison, or a gun.
3 different ways, yet the result is exactly the same.
The cat is dead, because of a decision I made that cat was eating, ‘good’ birds.
If the cat only ate, ’bad’, birds it would still be alive.
A step further.
I made a decision about the cat, based on my criteria.
And I know that down the street lives a person who hates all cats,
just because they are a cat,
regardless of whatever a cat is doing.
I call that person, then that person kills the cat, because I made the decision the cat gotta go.
How that is different from;
A person burning something to the ground.
A person destroying a building and all in it.
A Person steeling things in a building.
A person blocking traffic.
A person spiting, throwing rocks, bricks, etc at other people.
A person, doing those things, and more,
over and over and over and over again.
All over this Nation, and some others.
Using people who hate all cats, just because they are cats.
(With a handful of, ‘token hand slap’, arrests)
And
A Group of people, protesting their belief of a injustice.
ONE TIMEAnd the hammer falls.
Could it be that, someone, made a decision to ‘punish’ other people?
And that decision was made of their believes, of what was, ‘bad’ or, ‘good’ ?
