Stop Genocide - Arm the Populace
After the Hitler's slaughter of Catholics, communists, gays, gypsies, and jews, the world promised "Never again". Never again would the world stand idly by while entire populations were slaughtered. Then came Pol Pot and the Killing Fields. And Bosnia. And Rwanda. Rwandas are being massacred on a grand scale, and the world stifles a yawn. Not 1 U.S. resident in a hundred could find Rwanda on a map. Maybe it's because they're black. Maybe it's because they're poor. Maybe it's diffused responsibility. Maybe people are just watching too much reality tv to be bothered by world events. Who knows?
But, obviously there is a problem. Obviously, it doesn't work for people to count on the developed nations of the planet to save them. (We actually supported Pol Pot when he was slaughtering millions of his own people. Ouch.)
What's the solution? Arm the people. As it turns out, the people that are slaughtered are, without exception, unarmed. Arm the Rwandans, and people won't be lining up to slaughter them. That will stop the bloodshed. But, guess what, the liberals don't approve of that. They'd rather let them die like rats than hand them weapons.
