So this is now an issue? Are you serious.  Can any African American go through life without hearing a racial slur?  Can any ‘White’ person go through life without hearing stereotypes or the same racial remarks at some point.

No.  Plain and simple.  When you let a racial remarks hurt you, you let the person saying it – win.  What is this they said we said oh my god lets make it an issue bullshit.  How can you expect that there are not any racist people in the world?  How can you expect to walk through a group of activists and not hear something you do not like? Or something you wouldn’t want to hear for that matter?

People are angry, and the people lined up at these tea parties are not angry because this person, or that person has a different skin color.  They are angry because they know something in our Government is wrong, and by any means necessary they will strike to invoke emotional outrage.

They are trying to tell you something which you are not paying attention to, therefore they will say something which strikes a cord of familiarity.  I don’t care if a person is black or white, I don’t care about what nigger or cracker means, if you ask me, those terms can be applied to anybody regardless of skin color.  What I care about is whether our Constitution’s integrity is being taken into consideration in our law making process.

Why are ‘Conservatives’ wanting proof?  Fuck off, Just because someone yelled something that hurt, for christ’s sake get over yourselves.  Those of you who are saying shit like ‘wheres the proof’ and blah blah blah, or ‘it didnt happen’ blah blah blah – please go sit down.  Because you know damn right it happened, it happened because there are people that are racists, the majority of us know it is wrong, that it isn’t right, it doesnt mean that 1 racist out of 100 people make the other 99 racist as well.

The media is throwing this up in the air like “OMG WTF THEY SAID THE “N” WORD, OMG TELL EVERYONE SOMEONE SAID THE “N” WORD – OMG THE “N” WORD!!!!”

This is nothing new.  The hurtful word nigger is not new – it is not new – why is something which is not new being so debated over and thrown up in the media  like it is new?

People this is a lame attempt to subvert the intentions of American people petitioning the government for a redress of grievances.  This is an attempt to make fellow Americans who are participating in the democracy our founders intended, to look bad in the press.  Seriously America – Wake up.  Consider why people are at these tea parties, what are they saying?  Why – all of a sudden this huge surge of people, who were not activists before – now protesting? Does this not make any sense – do you think that they are doing it as a family outing?  Or something to do rather than take their kids to the park?  If your against people at tea parties, then your not thinking about what our Constitution grants us, it grants us this right, this power, and the responsibility to keep our government in check.  Do you not understand how complex and robust our Government is, what numerous things go on we know nothing about?  How about the current state of checks and balances – the separation of powers?  If your an American – you should be thinking about these things – it is our responsibility to stay informed, to participate in our Republic – If we do not do this – then we WILL loose it – or worse…never allow our children to see it.

You read the title of this post correctly.  I can’t help to wonder how belief systems justify that despicable and immoral behavior justifies a person in the face of a higher power.  I completely understand that justification through moral aptitude can be rightly done, and any person who falls in this category, has certain boundaries, and would in many cases respect the boundaries in others.  From whatever source that humanity sprang from we have been given a power of choice.  But when a person says my choice is led by the doctrine of a belief system, I believe that it would go against any intentions a higher power would of had.

I mean seriously here, why would a god create a species of mammals with a high amount of intelligence to make decisions for themselves and then pass on a doctrine that they believe in him or go to a horrible place?  Why not simply let the world know of his existence daily through legible and understandable communication?  Why have a book and doctrine if God actually exists?  If God is the creator of all other animals on earth, then why do they not practice religion?  Surely a good lord would be pleased with all his or her creations and allow them to praise.

Anyways, let me get to the foundation of this post, let me get to reason why I have came back here and posted to my website in which I have closed up. What could possibly bring me from my studies and my work?

Fred Phelps, his wife, and the Westboro Baptist Church.

If you don’t know this group, run a quick search.  These people ruin what Christianity should be, and what it could be.  They protest evil USA and about homosexuality – at funerals, and not just any funeral, but the funerals of fallen service men and women who have died in the line of duty.

Now I guess they have been doing this for some time now, why I never heard of it before is beyond me.  I know people protest about the sorts of things they protest about ‘Bad USA” and “God Hates Fags” or whatever.  But I was unaware that they would stoop to such a low level as to say “Thank God for Dead Soldiers” at their funerals.  I’ve been to church, I have read the word of God.  This is not ordained behavior in the eyes of God.  This sort of behavior is not something in which Jesus Christ would do or even condone his name in use for.

It is that type of behavior which is evil and corrupt.  When their time comes, and they stand before their lord he will laugh at them and cast them away.  I get the protests, I get the message, but there is a time and place for such things and at the mourning and laying of the dead it is not.

Sick.
