“He Was Just Turning His Life Around”
We’ve all seen it a thousand times on the mean streets of Any City, USA. Kid gets mixed up with the wrong crowd. Kid goes away for a while, to juvie, county jail or even prison. Kids gets out, impregnates his teenage girlfriend(s). He tells his mom he’s thinking about getting his GED. But something happens, and you hear the plaintive wail, “He was just turning his life around.”
It’s a small world after all. Crittenden at Pajamas, with a tragic tale of life and death on the mean streets of Any Jihad, Greater Umma. It’s just another story from this damned war, and maybe they’re right. Maybe we should start to treat this like a big law enforcement problem, with courts and social workers and street ministers, I mean imams, and midnight basketball games, before we tragically lose another young jihadi who was just trying to turn his life around back to the mean streets.

One problem - it’s kind of tough to organize midnight basketball and soccer games when the courts and fields are already being used for executions and mass burials.

With the exception of his victims, good riddance.
