Am I the only one who was offended by the President saying that the CARNAGE is over?
So I looked up the word "carnage" and found:
Noun[edit]
carnage (usually uncountable, plural carnages)
- Death and destruction.
- What remains after a massacre, e.g. the corpses or gore.
- (figuratively, slang) Any chaotic situation. [quotations ▼]
Synonyms[edit]
Has anyone seen a massacre anywhere? Do we have blood and bodies laying in the streets?
Despite our crime, gangs and drugs, we remain one of the safest countries on earth.
I am offended when our President uses such a terrible word to describe Your Country and Mine. I had hoped for a speech that would unite our divided nation so that we can move forward together to achieve greater economic and social growth.
Most of the commentators called the speech, "Dark." I thought that it was disappointing because I expect more from our leaders.

Maybe it's me.
