The killing of a security guard at the National Holocaust Museum today was one more example of a murder conducted by someone due to their political beliefs. It was another act of terror, just as the killing of the abortion doctor and the army recruiter were, and should be viewed as such. Though anyone may have sympathies to the left or right of the political spectrum, those who kill as terrorists do nothing to promote their supposed causes, and they are a scourge of society.
As I have discussed in this blog previously, someone who intentionally kills innocents is like a rabid beast, a threat to decent humans, and should be dealt with as such, to prevent them or others from doing further harm to innocent men, women and children. The terrorist's political leanings should not matter, left, right or in-between; they are devoid of any characteristics which have been protected by international laws. The society which allows rabid beasts to roam freely out of some misplaced sense of nobility and pride in its' tolerance, is a society which will die of its' own arrogant folly. It is a society which protects the beast and throws the innocents to the wolves.
