Terrorists are using trucks and vans to kill a lot of people. None of our so-called leaders, no military personnel, no progessors know what to do and are just wringing their hands.

I have an idea. Install a sensor on the bumper of each vehicle that, when the bumper hits something, the motor turns off. It should be automatic. To start the vehicle, they have to open the hood and put a special key in that box. It should be something a mechanic can install and be rewired for all vehicles. Viola. No more people being killed by trucks, vans or any other vehicle.

Editor:

We’re horrified by acts of terrorism: Orlando, Charleston, San Bernardino, Newtown, Oklahoma City. What we see less clearly is the terrorism so interwoven in a culture it seems normal: colonialism, imperialism, slavery. Today its terrorism against women by their intimate partners — three women killed every day, 4,774,000 women experiencing extreme violence every year. American troops killed in Afghanistan and Iraq between 2001 and 2012 numbered 6,488; during that same time 11,766 American women were murdered by current or former male partners.

I think of other homegrown unrecognized “terrorism,” our violence toward Earth, our only home. Chemical and oil spills, methane leaks, toxic waste dumped into rivers, loss of coral reefs and wetlands, the ocean used as a garbage dump. Our Defense Department declared man-made climate change our greatest terrorist threat — depletion of water causing water wars, droughts and floods destroying crops and homes, millions of refugees fleeing violence and hunger. Here record heat, intensity of storms, wildfires, floods, yet the extraordinary denial of this “terrorism” and its root causes.

Terrorism as not just violence but an attitude toward others; viewing women, the Earth and other beings as objects to be used, abused, exploited, a feeling of separation and superiority allowing us to justify greed, power, privilege and cruelty...
