in the aftermath of Utoeya
Jul. 23rd, 2011 07:17 amI got caught up in a discussion late last night, with someone trying to "explain" terrorism, of any shade stripe or dot. And this morning I've finally managed to sum up my reaction:
I do not understand and I will not condone and I will not turn away.

This isn't an opening for discussion. I'm not interested in political, moral, or philosophical justifications, this morning -- or, perhaps, any other. Not on this.
