You might be a terrorist if...

Friday, May, 9, 2008

A terrorist is one who terrorizes others, most often for political gain – but always for personal gain.  I know what you’re thinking, when you think terrorist, and it involves a turban and a thick, dark beard.  I hate to tell you, but there are terrorists right here among us.  So, want to find out if you’re a terrorist?  Answer these few simple questions.

1.  Have you ever driven your massive SUV within 5 feet of a smaller car while traveling upwards of 70 miles on the Interstate, flashing your lights and beeping your horn in an attempt to get the smaller car to get out of your way so you can barrel on through to the next car?  Yes   No

2.  Have you ever hurled abuse at a homosexual?  Or worse, have you ever thrown a brick through his window?  Left a threatening note on his car?  Yes  No

3.  Have you ever hit your wife(or your husband)?  Your children?  Have you threatened them with physical harm?  Do they become quiet when you arrive?  Do they retreat to their rooms?  Yes  No

If you answered yes to any of these questions, you just might be a terrorist.

Don’t be a terrorist.  Be a citizen of the earth who incites not fear, but joy from those around you.  Start thinking more about everyone else, and less about yourself.  And then watch the way the world changes.  Let’s start a revolution.
