Archive Entry #83: May 4, 1995
Posted on April 21, 2015.
On Sunday our nation observed the twentieth anniversary of the domestic terrorist bombing of the federal building in Oklahoma City. It was two weeks after that bombing that I wrote today’s entry that questions why we humans can be so slow to learn from our or our society’s mistakes.
As I wrote about the OKC tragedy, little did I know that just more than six years later, as a nation we would add a new date/term to our vocabulary: 9/11.
COMING NEXT: The Archive bids farewell to 1998 with another social commentary (I have used the “And from Bill...” space for many of those over the years) this one about shootings in Arkansas, our moral decay, and one of my most passionate subjects: gun control. Find it HERE.
