It's Sad

You know, when there was a big war on last time, there were protests, songs, and speeches.  What do we see now?  Blind people walking around with iPods stuck in their ears listening to rap and other meaningless crap.  (Yea I said it, RAP IS CRAP!)  So where is all this protesting stuff?  It's gone, wiped from the earth by the hand of the government, once again covering our mouths and eyes with blinding media.  Give us a sexy girl dancing on the screen and we forget all about the war and other crap going on in the world.  That's sad.  Why does no one seem to care anymore?  Have we really become THAT blind?  And if so, why?  These are things we need to deal with right now!  We can't just sit back anymore and watch this happen.  Stand up! Let your voice be heard!  Don't sit small and quiet anymore!  Wake up and let everyone know your opinion.  Fear not the harsh retributions some may give you because you did something before they did!  If they can't accept you for your opinion then screw them!  Just let it out!

Personal Space

Ok,  can we talk about that ever-so-present topic: personal space?  (I hope you have no objections, because I'll talk about it anyway, regardless of what you want me to do.)  Anyway, I think there are some common misconceptions about this "personal space."  The one I'm going to talk about is the one where other people think they can decide what YOUR personal space is.  I mean, there are some things that practically no one really wants to do (sex in public, etc.) but some schools are taking it way too far.  Recently there have been schools banning hugging, holding hands, putting arms around people - all things that normal people can tolerate just fine.  I mean, what's the problem with public displays of affection anywhere?  I sure don't see one.  It's like people want to take ALL the love out of the world.  I don't think this is right.  The thing that really gets me is that the teachers who are getting it banned used to do it themselves when they were that age!  Something is seriously wrong with that picture to me.  What's gonna happen?  It's not like you're going to get someone pregnant from putting your arm around your girlfriend.  One thing I've heard about this is that one girl hugged her friend because her dad died.  They BOTH got IN SCHOOL SUSPENSION!  Is it only me that sees something morally wrong with that picture?  Please keep our schools open to love and companionship.  Keep the love.

If the draft comes again...

Well everyone is thinking it, I'm just saying it.  The draft might be coming back.  Frankly, I think that really sucks.  The draft takes all of the smart kids who didn't join the army in the first place and makes them join anyway.  This practically ruins many of their lives in my opinion.  I know people who have been to war, and the memories they bring back are horrific.  The sights, sounds, and smells they tell of are truthfully too much for me.  Many of them saw many of their best friends injured or worse: killed.  Is it really worth it?  To kill the future of our country for a cause (wait, can you even call it a cause?) that just plainly doesn't make any sense?  I sure don't think so.  Wake up, America!  Not everyone wants to go ruin the best years of their lives to fight for something that's just stupid.  Well count me out.  If the draft comes back again, find me a passport and a suitcase, I'm skipping out of the country.

hey

Hi so this is my first blog and I just want to say what I'll be doing here.  Mostly, I'll be talking about things that have been happening in my life that have made me think...ok not the actual things, but what exactly they made me think about.  It's all opinion basically, and you can like it or not, I don't really care.  My main hope is to make people think about things.
