When Lesions Become A Protected Species

   What a completely ridiculous concept. Everyone knows that lesions are a sign of a serious disease and should be and usually are attended to immediately. I know of few people who would allow them to spread across their skin, simply hoping that they would go away. No, most folk run for their doctor’s office post-haste.

     Who ever, in their wildest dreams, could have envisioned rich Hamptonites (that’s New York for those unfamiliar), being denied access to the beaches that they paid handsomely for because they might disrupt the mating habits of the Piping Plover? Note, I did not say destroy the Piping Plover, I was referring to a simple matter of coitus interruptus. (I doubt that birds are modest, by the way).
    
     So why not lesions? Well, because lesions don’t have feelings that can be hurt, so far as we know. Stay tuned, maybe some brilliant scientist will discover that they do, and then you’re in big trouble if you develop them.
    
     Absurd, I know, but I have a point I’m getting at here. There is a lesion, a cancer, spreading over our land that we are allowing to spread because we’re too timid to confront and stop it. It’s Radical Islam and it’s happening at a small town near you. I might add also that it is very likely fatal. Ready to begin treatment now? I thought not.
    
     Islamberg is a small, 70 acre compound located at the base of the Catskill Mountains in upstate New York. You’re not welcome there unless you support Osama bin Laden and the jihad.  


     “Islamberg is a branch of Muslims of the Americas Inc., a tax-exempt organization formed in 1980 by Pakistani cleric Sheikh Mubarak Ali Gilani, who refers to himself as “the sixth Sultan Ul Faqr,” Gilani, has been directly linked by court documents to Jamaat ul-Fuqra or “community of the impoverished,” an organization that seeks to “purify” Islam through violence.”


    
     It’s a tumor growing right in our posterior and I bet that no one is willing to eradicate it. They have “rights” after all, and it would be an insult to , oh say…bomb them into oblivion. Waco taught us a lesson that we did not need to learn. The Branch Davidian was screwed up, but not a danger to America. I say this place is, and it’s not the only one.
   
     This tumor has roots that run under the skin of our soil and pop up as lesions in places like Hyattsville, Maryland; Red House, Virginia; Falls Church, Virginia; Macon, Georgia; York, South Carolina; Dover, Tennessee; Buena Vista, Colorado; Talihina, Oklahoma; Tulane Country, California; Commerce, California; and Onalaska, Washington. Others are being built, including an expansive facility in Sherman, Pennsylvania. But hey we don’t want to risk offending them by asking just what in the hell they’re training for, do we?
    
     One question: let’s say you’re just hanging out in front of the grocery store, waiting for someone shopping inside to come out. You see a man walking toward you with a sword dangling from his hand, and his gaze is levelled directly at you. You can’t be sure of his intent, and if you over-react, you might offend his sensibilities, so do you wait until he’s within range to lop off your head and see if maybe he’s going to get an appraisal on the thing? Or do you make a move to safety earlier and watch his reaction to your movements?
    
     I have always been aware of the possibilty that Government was a hairs’ width from going too far in it’s power, and I have also been concerned that liberties are a fragile thing, but it is now getting to the point where we will freedom ourselves right into the grave. Of course, at that point our souls will be free, but I’m still not ready to discover whether or not the after-life is real.
