cancer as analogy, anger, pol reference 

if living in the USA now is a little like knowing you'll probably die from cancer, hearing anything about certain people is a little like like getting the biopsy results back. And part of what makes THAT so fearful is the sure knowledge that like a sufficiently advanced cancer, nothing will stop them metastasizing.

And, while I'm trying to remember that if a sort of random and unfair world means what happens to anyone from Raoul Wallenberg to Terry Jones to even someone as crummy as *me* isn't fair, isn't what we truly deserve, the down side of this sort of random unfair world are the Reagans and Mengeles of the world, who die well off and peaceful far from the horrors that surrounded their victims.
