In U.S. ...... In Iraq ...... Violence prevails.... =(

Sorry people its been a busy April for me, so now im back to blogging ... As i was having my Unit Trust exams which i have passed and currently awaiting my license and certificate to start my career as a Unit Trust Consultant. This means i will be juggling 2 jobs soon. Futhermore this month i am working night shift which is the busiest shift as most of our customer are U.S. based and its office hours for them there.

In the papers today it seems that US and Iraq are having domestic violence which have reached new heights as you can see from the links below:

Virginia Tech School Massacre


Car bomb Kills 170 in Baghdad

In Iraq a car bomb kills 170 people which is a deadliest death toll for a car bombing since the invasion of U.S. As for the States it was the deadliest school massacre in history with 33 deaths have grabbed most of the headlines across U.S. tabloids. The killing was carried out by a 23 year old South Korean student named Cho Seung-Hui at Virgina Tech University. Apparently i see no difference in the suicidal school shootings with the suicide bombings in iraq as innocent lives fall victim to such unscrupulous acts.... Apart from that we can see the picture of the man behind the massacre, from what i can tell his facial expression potrays a chillingly disturbed individual.

This further questions the gun laws in the states where the rights to bear arms are the most lenient in the western world. This raises the question if you bear arms to protect yourself what will protect you from others who bear arms to cause harm to you? If guns are not easily obtained, there need not be an answer to the previous question.
