No one’s going to remember you. They won’t think you were cool or something special. History might to say you were mentally ill or just something to be pitied and punished. You bombed the Boston Marathon but you’re not what we’ll remember. You’re already yesterday’s news.
We’ll remember the
survivors for their fortitude and courage. We’ll remember the heroes who
responded with compassion and guts to run into the chaos and save lives.
You
bombed the Boston Marathon and now the world thinks you’re a jerk. Something
found smushed and smelly on the bottom of a shoe. They won’t remember you as an
outlaw or an amazing human that you could do such a thing. They’ll think you’re
just a bad person, someone no one wants to know or deal with in life. They’ll
want you flushed down a toilet because that’s what your actions showed you are,
just a living turd.
What
we will remember is those who ran toward the blast to help. We’ll remember the
police, the FBI, and paramedics and doctors who ran to the rescue. These people
became heroes that day and will forever go down in history as loving, good
human beings who went the extra mile to save lives. They showed courage beyond
imagination. From the brave people in the media who stayed to help and share the
story, to Google who was one of the first to set up a link to find loved ones,
to the city officials in Boston who jumped into action, these people are all
heroes. These are the ones with stories to tell and to whom we’ll give our
hearts, praise and thanks.
You’re
not Jesse James or any other kind of famous outlaw. Soon we will forget your
name and your life and know you only as the asshole who tried to hurt people.
Whatever your reason for doing this, we don’t care. We only save caring for
those who deserve it. You’ll be caught and soon. You’re trial will be a joke
because there’s not a jury in America that won’t throw the book at you.
The only question left; Does Massachusetts have the death penalty?
