Ignorance

Ignorance is now reached pandemic proportions.

Woodstock

I am sick of hearing about Woodstock and how great it was supposed to be. It was just a bunch of drugged out, loser hippies, hippy want be’s, and curiosity seekers. People say it influenced a generation but it only influenced the ones under the influence. People say it showed how all types of people could live in peace and love. Bull! It only lasted a few days. Had it went for another week, things would have been different. The money, drugs, and fun would have run out and people would have been fighting for food and drugs, stealing, and destroying things. A week of cooperation was nothing new. Wars have stopped for a week during truces. For centuries, warring tribes and countries have lived in relative peace for short periods. Almost anyone can coexist with anyone else for a short time. In the years since Woodstock, communal living has been tried many times and the experiments always failed. Woodstock was just a big concert with paid entertainment where people could party for a short time before reality set back in.

Bolt

Usain Bolt sets another world record in the 100 meter dash at the 2009 IAAF world championships. If we believe it when people proclaim that all races are equal, that one race is not superior to another, then why is it that blacks have always been the fastest human runners at all distances?

Second Chance

People say that everyone deserves a second chance, but this is just another old saying that everyone repeats without asking themselves whether it is true or not. Not everyone deserves a second chance, at least not in the same area that caused their first problem. Does a drug user who became addicted to drugs deserve a second chance to try using drugs without becoming addicted. Does your uncle who molested you as a child deserve a second chance by your letting him babysit your children? Completing the sentence imposed by a court does make a person deserving of a second chance. The person must dedicate many years of effort toward earning a second chance; it does not just happen. People who say others deserve a second chance usually have no connection to the person about whom they are speaking. When it is a person who has harmed them, they do not usually agree that the person deserves a second chance; they usually think that the person did not receive enough punishment for the first crime.

Fat Kids

People whined that physical competitive sports hurt the self-esteem and self-confidence of children so they sued until physical education was practically eliminated from schools. Then children began to become fat slugs with all types of health problems. So people told schools to increase their physical education classes. Due to the increase in physical education classes, physical education related injures increased 150% over the last ten years. Of course, the increase was due to there being practically no physical education classes in previous years. Now the lawsuits will increase until physical education is again eliminated . Children need physical activity and they will get injured during physical activity. That’s life. Grow up and accept it. Life is dangerous; in fact, everyone will die from it.

Profiling

It is called racial profiling when whites presuppose blacks will behave a certain way, and whites are condemned if they do it. However, when blacks presuppose whites will behave a certain way, it is excused, and whites are blamed for the blacks thinking this way. It is similar to a man abusing his child and using the excuse that he was abused as a child. Instead of remembering what it was like to be abused by his father and not wanting that to happen to any child, he uses it as an excuse to do the same thing to his own child. If you do not want to be treated a certain manner, then do not behave in that manner.

Stick and Stones

The old saying states, “Sticks and stone may break my bones but words will never hurt me.” Once again, liberals have proved tradition wrong. To liberals, adultery, drug abuse, alcoholism, being inconsiderate, loud, and obnoxious when you are a liberal public figure, showing disrespect to women, and showing complete disrespect to police are excusable actions, but you had better not say anything that is even remotely disrespectful about a minority group or homosexuals. If you listen to hip hop music, you will hear continuous derogatory and hateful comments, which to liberals is okay; they say it is the artists’ right to free speech, does not hurt those to which it is directed, and that music does not affect the behavior of those who hear it. However, they also say you do not have the right to say anything derogatory about minorities or homosexuals since the words could hurt the feelings of those in those groups and that the words could affect the behavior of those who hear them and cause them to do harm to people in those groups. Therefore, if you say anything derogatory about one of those groups, you must be severely punished. Case in point is the recent comment by Hawaii football coach Greg McMackin who, while talking about last year's bowl blowout loss to Notre Dame, called the Irish team dance a "fagot dance." There was media uproar and he was suspended for 30 days. Calling a person who eats meat a murderer, calling Christians hate mongers, calling President Bush an idiot, etc. is okay, just don’t’ call them a fagot.
