|    The Daily Purge: Hostage Situation    |
|    12 Aug 23 07:39:36    |
      From: andronicus451@gmail.com              Many people think, say, and pray: "Why doesn't God act now and stop evil?"              The world can be imagined much like a hostage situation in a bank.       The criminals took over the bank, took the customers and clerks hostage,       and demand ransom. Either they will be paid, or they will stop shooting       hostages, one every hour.              But some of the customers sided with the criminals, some thought that       the bank is evil and robbing them, so they all got mixed. The SWAT team       couldn't enter because they would kill half of the clerks and customers       in the line of fire to take out the criminals and robbers.              Then mayor decided to send his son, unarmed, because       he was an influencer and a popular guy, so he could win the hearts       of the customers and clerks back to the side of the law and justice.              Banks, however much they inclined to usury and eviction of the debtors       from their homes to the streets, are protected by the law.              Mayor's son entered the bank alone, unarmed, and started negotiating.       He started to persuade the people to help the police as they enter the       building in an attempt to deliver them. However, as the criminals       figured out they are losing the heist, they executed the major's son.              After that, the criminals lost the support of the public and only the       criminals among the customers still supported them.              But the situation was still not clear, and the SWAT team could not       enter, because some of the innocent customers would be killed out       as collateral victims, but that was still not acceptable to the grieved       mayor, despite losing his son's life at the hand of the kidnappers.              So the impossible game of nerves and negotiation continued ...              in the LORD       Amen              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
