Murder is still murder even when cloaked under an ideological blanket. Much is being said about Giolias and this band of "revolutionaries" in my country at the moment...nothing counts because he is dead and not here to speak for himself. Even if he wasn't "squeaky clean" - why him? He isn't the worst...Do you know how many Giolias there are? Millions. Was it to stop Troktiko? It was a powerful blog? Or did someone think - "Ha, a highly publicised murder would come in handy to take people's minds away from the economic problems and austerity measures going through!" (Sorry, I'm beginning to become a real conspiracy theorist these days).Purple Cowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11016727639028322093noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3284462997299066462.post-84128399186294567762010-07-29T12:15:54.211-07:002010-07-29T12:15:54.211-07:00This is so tough, when people are killed and extre...This is so tough, when people are killed and extreme justice is laid out, to say who is right and who is wrong.<br /><br />While I don't know enough about the journalist to either condemn or condone his actions, I do believe that killing people is wrong.<br /><br />Two wrongs don't make a right - and an eye for an eye leaves everyone blind.<br /><br />Violence cannot be solved with more violence. That is pure truth. And there is not "good violence" and "bad violence" - there is just violence.Phoenixhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07477498671080132176noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3284462997299066462.post-86269149328829172712010-07-28T05:39:58.952-07:002010-07-28T05:39:58.952-07:00Wow.
