I wrote about Pat Robertson’s death last week by damning him with his own words, and boy were there so many to choose from. Then I heard that Ted Kaczynski was found dead. The day after this popped into my miscreant semi-retired priest brain, and I had to do it.
I have played around cartooning by making cards for Judy for her birthday and other occasions, and she, a real artist told me I have some talent. I did a bunch of Christmas cards for people who helped me with my book in 2021, and got encouragement from quite a few people. Judy gave me a bunch of expensive color pencils and drawing pens, but I have been so busy that I hadn’t done anything since last fall.
But this idea was kismet. I immediately saw the picture in my mind and instead of finishing the article I began last night, I put it aside to draw this tonight.
Yes, I admit is somewhat twisted and might be what some consider in bad taste, judgmental, or mean. However, it was fun, a brought me a certain feeling of Schadenfreude. Let’s face it. Pat Robertson said and did more things to crush other people, his words and actions about so many people and groups were simply evil. Likewise, Ted, the Unibomber, Kaczynski was a serial killer, and a coward. Those that send bombs in the mail to people are that. They don’t show their face, they create a climate of terror and fear, and they have no remorse. While Pat never sent a bomb to anyone, his words were deadly, and he never apologized for anything, but hate is never having to say you’re sorry.
So, be this offensive to anyone, I urge them to grow up and be better people than these clowns. Just remember, “You may be a king or a little street sweeper, but sooner or later you’re going to dance with the Reaper.
Have a great night!

I agree with Judy ... you have some talent!!! And nothing offensive here, Padre ... neither of these two were what I would call a "good man".
