its not just news

i haven't been very inspired to blog lately but i will about this cause it makes me sick. last night as i was having my dinner and watching the news lodged in between the news of the newly elected pope and the news of our rapidly approaching election there was a story that made the food lodge in my throat.
In 1979 when i was just a year old a little girl went missing. it was after dinner and she went for a bike ride and never returned, her body was found a few days later not far from where she lived. she was 12 years old. this was in Pentiction not far from where my family vacationed for years and years and when i saw the images on the news i couldent help thinking that when my life was just starting out this little girls life was ending and havent i seen this before in some movie or a book mabye? and this seems so familier. and then i realised that i hear about this kind of thing all the time it seems just a few weeks ago there was this other little girl and then last summer the girl from Toronto and WHAT THE FUCK! it is our obligation as adults and guardians to protect children.
Her UNCLE was arrested for the crime and i want to know why the fuck it took them over 20 years to make an arrest? what have they been doing? and now they find out that this uncle has other sexual assult charges under his belt from around the same time. Well, we can all feel safe now knowing that this predator has been sitting around for the better half of his life. thats some sort of protection. so he has bad kidneys and needs dialisis, who wants to bet that they will come up with some fucking excuse as to why he wont have to go to jail like hes too old his kidneys will fail blahblahblahblah. i say fuck prison its too easy. he has bad kidneys good. let him die a painfull horrible death and while hes doing that show him a picture of that little girls face. no actually dont dont give him the satisfaction its not like it would mean anything to him anyways. show him a picture of the worst place in hell cause thats where he will be for the remainder of his days.
and then i think, what happened to him? he wasnt born that way. so what happened? they say that the abused abuse back but i dont think thats good enough. its just not good enough.

    thanks for your comment bummer. i don't believe in the death penalty either. if there is a way to reabilitate him i would be in favour but is age the issue here? i don't know what do you think? and if not solitary confinement is good with me and no sunlight and little air.
