12. Glad to see my meme about blood sacrifices to a god has entered the cartoon zeitgeist...

Seriously, I've been saying this here for several years. Not claiming self-importance, but it's been important to me that someone, anyone, understand the kind of warped-spiritual worship involved in this American carnage.

Follow the money, to be sure. The NRA acts as a lobbying firm for the American weapons industry. But like a televangelist raking in the dough from a million true believers, there really are true believers who condone the continual blood sacrifices demanded by their god.

I've called this god by various names. This week I'm calling it Moloch. Next week maybe I'll reference Xibalba's gods.
