A GLOBAL TRAGEDY


THERE JUST HAS TO BE ANOTHER WAY 

VOLUME DISCOUNT

BY FLYING JOHN

"Kill one man and it's murder, and the world flies into rage.

But kill fifty thousand people or more, and it's only a strategy stage."

That's a quote from Joseph Stalin, and in these days it rings so true .

Thirty million children murdered in wombs, so what's the big ado?

For were it only one you see, the headlines would quickly blaze.

"Child Murdered in Womb, Let's Find The Beast", concerns would quickly raise.

But murdering millions is legal these days, since the bodies are hidden from sight.

It's just like it was back in Germany once, till those corpses came into the light.

So pay no heed to this slaughter, no matter how great the amount.

For life is cheaper in volume, my friends, that's a fact you can not discount.

Besides your grandchildren will understand, when they ask what you knew at the time.

Just tell them it was none of your business back then, there were too many to pay it much mind.

John, you have such a way with words. Kind of a 'weird irony' somewhere in all of this. ;)~ JC
