...this is what i thought as i read someone's license plate cover this morning on my way into work. first of all, Oregon drivers never cease to amaze me at how ignorant they are. we all know that when you get a mile or so from the tunnel on 26, you can't change lanes b/c it's pretty dangerous and can causes a headache of a traffic jam. so mr. shiny mercedes decides he's going to get over w/o a blinker. wonderful idea. i slam on my breaks. i'm ticked off but not really pissed. b/c of his awesome manuvere i am close enough to read his license plate cover. it reads "i would rather be killing terrorists". are you kidding me? now my juices are boiling. i can't believe he (1) actually paid to have that put on something and (2) would then take the time to put it on his car. now, don't get me wrong, i'm not a fan of "terrorists" but i am a fan of human life and don't think any human has the right to judge the finality of life. i would LOVE to ask him when he first learned about "terrorists" and what the word means to him. who does he classify as a "terrorists"? b/c newsflash buddy: terrorism has been going on for centuries..if history repeats itslef (as it normally does) terrorism is not likely to end in our lifetime.
so after all that ran through my mind i decided to pray for mr. shiny mercedes. i would love to have a conversation about why he felt compelled to state that he would rather kill people than oh gee i don't know...go golfing!!!! his statement, whether he really beieves it or not, scares me. have we let our media and national dialouge be so independednt that he thinks it's okay to say he would like to kill another person? if that's the case...heaven come down!

Technically speaking. If his driving skills were scaring [terrorizing] you. He would be a terrorist. And therefore, he would rather be killing himself. Maybe that is why he is a driving crazy?
People who waste money on plate covers just amazing me. Seems like a waste of money to me.
This is funny in light of our conversation last night.
I wonder if David would have this on his camel;
If only you, God, would slay the wicked!
Psalm 139:19a TNIV
