Gringos Are Not Just Nuts, They're Spooky Nuts

Alan: When push comes to shove, Americans value property over people.

15 years ago, in the town of Efland, North Carolina -- five miles west of where I live -- a guy with no intention of hurting the cashier, tried to rob the local A&P. 

An off-duty police officer who was grocery shopping pulled his gun and shot him dead. 

The next day, the local "buzz" hummed with triumphalism: "Good guy kills bad guy."

No mention was made of the implicit assumption that Americans consider property more valuable than human life.

We gringos are so convinced that property should be given precedence over people that we are blind to our conditioning and how our acculturation makes us philosophical accomplices to murder and manslaughter.

Here's what Jesus of Nazareth recommends to his followers: 

Luke 6:28-30

28 Keep speaking blessings on those who curse you. Keep praying for those who mistreat you. 29 If someone strikes you on one cheek, offer the other cheek too. If someone steals your coat, offer him your shirt too. 30 If someone begs from you, give to him. If someone robs you of your valuables, don’t demand them back.

Where are biblical literalists when they might do some good?
