Antonio Martin had to do it all over again, he would have never pulled his weapon on the officer. Right now he may be able to hears the screams of Michael Brown in hell.

Mr. Martinez, “When will enough people say, “Stop this madness! We don’t have to live like this!”?

While it is understood that Mr. Martinez is emotionally distraught, for who wouldn’t be, after losing a child, Mr. Martinez is failing to logically connect the dots.

When a society walks away from God, and then condones or puts into law those very things which pander to the baser nature of man, then the only outcome of such ignorance is that we MUST “live like this!” Nihilism and death is the end result. There are no other alternatives.

Mr. Martinez, “Too many have died!”

Not necessarily. But, for the grace of God, many more could have died, not only in California, but elsewhere, like Colorado, Massachusetts, and Illinois. Yet, are we paying attention? One would be hard pressed to think we are, given the kind of unreasonable rants like those in Mr. Martinez’s press conference.

Finally, Mr. Martinez bellowed, “We should say to ourselves NOT ONE MORE!”

Living in a dreamworld is not going to solve anything. Even if every state upheld the right to bear arms and open carry, not conceal and carry, and then resolved to do things God’s way, there would still be the Elliot Rodgers to contend with. There may not be as many, but they would still be with us.

While it is with sadness that seven more young lives were senselessly taken, this really comes as no surprise. Contemporary America is ripe for this kind of tragedy, as well as others.

Too many assume to be “normal,” when the reality is, they share the same narcissistic, atheistic, damnable worldview as Elliot Rodger. They just have not picked up a gun, knife, rope, ax, hacksaw, beer bottle, box cutter, razor blade, or whatever to express their lost, self-centered, violent disposition yet. Instead, they demonstrate it with words and other actions.

Elliot Rodger is dead. He took six others with him. But, Richard Martinez’s rationalization was equally dead on arrival. Unfortunately, his victims are still waiting to be counted.
