The world's terrorists must be sleeping very soundly indeed; free from moral quandaries.
I thought that nothing could top the depraved indifference of America's health insurance system until I read this cheerful story about the behavior of the South Fulton Fire Department.
In a previous post I compared the barbaric behavior of America's health insurance system to the highly civilized behavior of the fire department. At the time I was unaware that any of our nation's fire departments would dream of standing by while someone's home burned down. Apparently I was wrong. Moral depravity knows no limit in America.
If I come across a word that accurately describes the depths of depravity demonstrated by the South Fulton Fire Department I'll let you know. Until then, readers should consider the fact that those who drive airplanes into buildings, mow down their classmates in a hail of bullets, or park truck bombs in front of federal buildings are being made to seem considerably less evil when compared to the routine behavior of ordinary Americans.
Sleep soundly meatheads.

Chicken Soup with Coach Joe Paterno and the students of Penn. State
If there's an example of the American Character that terrorists can reference to avoid tossing and turning at night...this is surely it. Just when I thought that football players, coaches, and fans couldn't possibly stoop to a lower level of subhuman depravity, along comes Penn. State University.
Let's start from the beginning.
At 9:30 in the evening on Friday, March 1, 2002 Penn. State graduate assistant Mike McQueary witnesses Assistant Coach Jerry Sandusky sodomizing a 10 year old boy in the shower.
Mike McQueary didn't call the police.
Instead, he called his father John McQueary who told him to call Head Coach Joe Paterno. He called the next day, then met Paterno at his home and reported what he'd seen.
Neither John McQueary nor Joe Paterno called the police.
Instead, Paterno hosted athletic director Tim Curley at his home and reported what McQueary had seen.
Tim Curley didn't call the police either.
Nobody called the police. It's possible that these guys really do love pedophiles. Or perhaps they just didn't care about the victim. After all...what's the safety of a ten year old sodomy victim compared to the public image of a living deity like Jerry Sandusky?
Nine and a half years after all of these guys should have been thrown in prison, the University belatedly got around to firing Joe Paterno and College President Graham Spanier. Instead of protesting the university's half hearted response to the crime, hundreds of Penn. State college students stage a riot in support of Joe Paterno. They knocked over a television van and chanted, "We want Joe!" in a very successful public reminder of why Columbine killers Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold massacred members of their student body instead of targeting the jocks they claimed to hate.
The basic reason that no one notified the police is simple: The institution of football harbors, enriches, and deifies some of the sickest sociopaths that the American Family can produce. That includes a good percentage of the fan base.
If the 10 year old child of any of the college staff listed here or of any of those college students who rioted was being molested, they'd demand that the world come to a screeching halt and impose the harshest possible punishment upon the offender. But because the victim was someone else's child and the pedophile was a really, really important member of the gridiron elite, it was covered up like so many other embarrassing revelations about the true character of football enthusiasts.
Americans who really want to demonstrate their support for victims can skip the phony baloney candlelight vigils and blue shirt days. If you really want to send a message, simply take a year off. Don't show up for any of the big four sports: football, hockey, basketball, or baseball at any level, high school through the pros for one calendar year. If all those scumbags care about is money, then the only tactic they'll pay attention to is a public willing to shut off their cash flow. This won't happen of course. Americans don't care about victims, even the most innocent of victims and the world's terrorists know it.
And that's all that the world's terrorists need to know about Americans in order to sleep at night.
I LOVE PEDOPHILES!
SEE YOU ON THE FOOTBALL FIELD!!

Chicken Soup with Ron Paul
Every terrorist wannabe and every criminal in America can thank Ron Paul, M.D. who took a Hippocratic Oath...OB/GYN Ron Paul who cares for women and infants...Presidential Candidate for the Republican Party Ron Paul for leaving no doubt that human life has no value and human suffering is a non-issue.
How does Ron Paul feel about all of our nation's evil, socialist, taxpayer funded fire departments? They don't ask emergency callers if they have insurance. They don't send fire victims a bill. And even Ann Coulter hasn't stooped low enough to suggest that people shop around for the lowest price fire department while their home burns to the ground.
The world's terrorists can thank Ron Paul for removing any moral impediments to sacrificing human life and imposing human suffering in the pursuit of their goals. After all, who are terrorists to argue with the tenet that health insurance industry profits and bloated executive bonuses are more important than human life.
Ron Paul for President!!

Chicken Soup with Brian Wood
Five years after blithely attempting to injure another player three times during a single game back in 2006, Brian Wood is still allowed to play football.
Chicken Soup fans will remember that he became the subject of national news stories when Riveroak Redskins Assistant Coach Cory Petero attempted to knock some sense into him during a game on September 2, 2006. The story is a simple and familiar one:
Brian Wood, like all bullies was perfectly content dishing it out to victims who are smaller and weaker than he is. When a larger Cory Petero put him on the receiving end of his own behavior Brian Wood (the bully), the parents who taught him how to treat smaller, weaker people, and all of the world's usual sociopath enablers expressed outrage and feigned bewilderment because there was one adult present who dared to put the safety of the victim ahead of the ego of a stereotypical Columbine Jock. A follow up story reported that Cory Petero was sentenced to pick up trash on the highway for a few weekends, serve four years on probation, complete a 16 week anger management program, and pay Brian Wood (the bully) $100. Brian Wood's mother, Denise Champion expressed outrage and disappointment with what she described as a light sentence.
I'd give the guy a medal.
Once again, terrorists have yet another example to study. American parents raise their children to intentionally harm smaller, weaker children and public outrage is entirely directed at the only adult on the field willing to punish the offender.

Chicken Soup with Embarrassing Statistics
Today is the 10th anniversary of the event known almost universally as "9/11" and there are numerous dedications and memorial services going on as I write. In fact, I've seen more documentaries about 9/11 over the last two weeks than I can remember. I joked to one of my coworkers the other day that I was half expecting to hear a report about the effect of 9/11 on the hairdressing industry.
And now for those "embarrassing statistics."
In the decade since 9/11, according to the FBI's Uniform Crime Report, Americans have committed the following crimes against other Americans:
Homicide: 163,705
Forcible Rape: 927,387
Aggravated Assault: 8,619,877
The American Family just keeps churning them out.
Al Quaeda would have to stage more than five 9/11 attacks every year in order to come close to the rate at which Americans murder other Americans. The United States is not a nation of angels. It's not even close. If you want to make this country a better place to live, take a good look in the mirror and ask what you've done to avoid rewarding or otherwise enabling American criminals. And if you're not even willing to make that small effort toward your own country's future, stop complaining about terrorism, because you aren't really all that concerned about victims.

Chicken Soup with the rapist loving, victim blaming cowards of Silsbee High School
Rakheem Bolton
One of the objectives of Basic Military Training is to dehumanize the enemy in an effort to make it easier for inexperienced, young soldiers to kill them without hesitation or regret.
Domestic terrorists like Timothy McVeigh and the Columbine killers have an advantage over military recruits in that their target, the American public dehumanizes itself by routinely supporting criminals and punishing victims.
Once again we have a case that involves a football player in Texas. The basic story is simple and familiar:
A high school football and basketball player rapes a cheerleader at a party and is arrested the next day. He is set free almost immediately and is allowed to return to school and to play sports. The cheerleader he raped refused to cheer for him and is punished by school administrators by being removed from the cheerleading squad. The victim's parents sue the school, lose, and are also punished by being required to pay $45,000 to reimburse the school district for legal costs.
Admittedly, the lawsuit was a dumb idea. I don't believe it was frivolous, just dumb. The courts are clogged, inefficient, and ineffective. The fact that the rapist did not go to prison is evidence enough of that.
Terrorists can judge whether their targets are civilized people or just another bunch of mean, stupid, and callous human animals by paying close attention to two simple facts:
1) School administrators could easily have displayed an iota of class by ignoring the rape victim's harmless act of defiance.
2) The audience, which is under no legal or moral obligation to support the accused rapist's right to attend school and play sports could have demonstrated their concern for crime victims by staying home when Mister Penis was scheduled to play. They didn't do that because American sports fans are just fine with violent criminal athletes as long as someone else's son or daughter is being brutalized.
Terrorists can take comfort from the fact that the average American is even more callous than the average terrorist.

Chicken Soup with local football hero Dustin Camp of Amarillo, Texas.
Terrorists can cool their ethical jets by reading about yet another example of the sort of characters the American Family is proud of producing.
I'll be adding to the story about this gem of the American Family later. For now, read this and this.
American Hero of the gridiron Dustin Camp got away with murder for very simple reasons: He played football and he committed murder in Texas. What else do you need to know?
Is this the same guy? If not, then it's an amazing coincidence.
Anyone interested in the Dustin Camp case should find this interesting.
Here's more.
As always...Why do so many Americans behave in a manner that makes it so easy for terrorists, foreign or domestic to hate them?
