dear terrorists,

look, i know you are pissed off or whatever. well, i’m pissed off about plenty of things as well. but, didn’t you get the memo that we don’t blow shit up? no, instead we sit and listen to sad or angry music and brood. we brood damnit. or if we are rich, we hire lobbyists to get congress to do what we want.

so yeah, could you please use your money to buy some seats in congress, or like a supreme court spot, instead of buying bombs? because the people who ride the subway and the bus don’t really have any influence, and you know what, our lives suck just like yours do. but we don’t blow up things.

so start brooding damnit. brood and listen to some emo music. if you want to drink cheap whiskey and slit your wrists, that’s cool too.

thanks,

dave
