Also, what group is so insecure that they have to threaten the pen with a sword? Reminds me of the NRA crowd;


"I'm not really making a statement, I just fear society overall."

Somehow I cannot compare any US Citizen with the Islamic Radicals that murder, behead, lash and mutilate. I must be missing something. Please explain this to me.

So much so that they fear society overall. Their mindset is so far gone in some strange dystopia-world view delusion, that they are a danger to themselves and the people around them.

Anything else?

People who mutilate young girls are especially evil. People who butcher innocent people because of their sexual orientation are evil. I do not believe it's caused by fear, it's madness. I put them in a class of all their own.

What causes madness? Fear. You can do whatever you want to, thankfully this is a free county.

Its just not in some of us to ever be so cruel.

You don't have to be the same as someone else to imagine why they are the way they are. Unless you have no critical thinking skills. Then life is easy, because you will never understand anything below the surface.

Thanks for this post & link icymist.

"They are now dead for being artists."

Don't forget to scroll all the way down for there is a gallery.

Just sadness.

Absolutely must see to get an idea just how deep the sadness and affection goes. And to express that as magnificently as these artists have here is an honorable tribute to yesterday's tragedy

What beauty.

Ars longa, vita brevis
Ars longa, vita brevis is a Latin translation of an aphorism coming originally from Greek. The Latin quote is often rendered in English as Art is long, life is short.

thank you, GreatCaesarsGhost

Full quote:


“Ars longa,
vita brevis,
occasio praeceps,
experimentum periculosum,
iudicium difficile.

Life is short,
[the] art long,
opportunity fleeting,
experiment dangerous,
judgment difficult.”

― Hippocrates

That was a good one.
