Grab the Stagecoach and Hit the Road

Anytime California representatives suggest a new law addressing gun control, I always hear a handful of California residents proclaiming they are going to pack up and move to Texas.  Many point to the fact that Texas has fewer regulations than California. This may be true- but then I point to reasons for regulations- like the plant that blew up in West Texas, and destroyed a neighborhood, killing several people.  I also point to the fact that they are using money from the Obama Administration to rebuild… and repair their roads.

As a Californian that lived in Texas, I lived it. I lived the isolation of another perspective. I faced racism on a regular basis.  One day, I was standing outside watering my grass and a female neighbor said “Hi Negro neighbor”, in a half- joking, half-serious tone. Now, don’t get me wrong- this is not all of Texas, but this is my experience.

There were days when I was stuck driving behind a pick-up truck covered in “I hate Obama” stickers and a Confederate flag waving in the air.  Yes, this new law to some can be considered a removal of rights. Why should you have to subject yourself to a background check to get bullets?

Well, if you have nothing to hide, then you should have nothing to worry about, correct? Never mind that the Government has just made it mandatory for Google to hand over your data- including the search for how many bullets it will take to kill a deer and religious quotes to be plastered on a Facebook wall directly from the Bible Belt.

A background check for a gun and a background check for bullets is nothing that the law abiding citizen should be afraid of. If you are using the gun to go hunting- killing animals that you fed- or for the intruder that happens to be lurking around every corner, than you are fine.

Shouldn't there be one more layer of protection for our children? I know that those who are worried about this background check live in a bubble. A bubble of Faux News, Rushmouth commentary, and the Sarah Palin Pit-bull and lip stick speech. I wonder if she had any other quotes but couldn't fit them on her hand.

There is a lot to love about Texas. I loved the thunderstorms, the cheap homes, and the spirit of the average Texan. I loved watching the Cowboys and their owner, Jerry Jones build that masterpiece of a Stadium. I even love the slogan “Don’t Mess with Texas”, but… that was started due to the high amount of liter that is often left on the road.

I loved Friday Night Football, even with the Natural Gas oil rig spewing toxic fumes in the air and underground the stadium… and our homes.

And of course, California is not perfect. Houses are expensive, gas is high, and by only speaking one language- I am the minority- and I’m not white. But I do live in the countryside of California. I get to see horses and cows run free, smell the farmland in the summer, and see the seasons change. I hate the traffic and I hate the disparity between the advantaged and disadvantaged. No place is perfect. Not Texas. Not California. Not even the United States.

But we have to understand the point that I have stated may times. We are so fucking divided by religion, economics, race, and political affiliation that we cannot see through the rhetoric. We often say that Freedom is not “free”- as the soldiers return in caskets. But then take away freedoms in every state.

I did find that it was rather odd that Texas had its own Pledge of Allegiance. Personally I believe that this increases the division of that State from other states. But that is fine. You can enjoy the intellectual properties that come from California- and enjoy the natural gas that may be linked to disease and deaths of citizens across the country.

California regulates to save lives- Texas deregulates to make money. California is strapped because of mismanagement and the programs that often help the disadvantaged and maybe offer them an opportunity to climb to middle class status.

Look, if you live in California and hate the laws then move. Climb in your futuristic stage coach with your loaded guns and head east. There is no place like Texas, like there is no place like California. A matter a fact there is no place as we know, like Earth- so enjoy where the fuck we are. Just remember what they say- the grass always looks greener on the other side of the fence.

I like many of the laws in California- I like the diversity in culture. I love the weather, I love the ocean, and I like not being pulled over by a cop and being asked if I am driving my car and where the fuck I work- Maybe my skin tone played a role in my experience. It is kind of hard to not take a racist joke off the lips of a redneck personal without wanting to shove my Nike Airs up his ass.

We should all be Americans, instead of individuals that are restricted by invisible state lines. 

Accountability or Probability

Should we hold our media accountable? And would this accountability be for the greater good of our society? I would think so. As a college student the most important lesson that I have taken away from my studies is credibility. Now as a writer, a blogger, and an artist I do not consider myself a journalist at all. I voice my opinion and challenge others to do the same and think critically.

With the lack of credibility in our media, this possesses a great danger to society as a whole. If the citizens are misinformed, brainwashed, and subjected to these misinforming media conglomerates 24 hours a day, we are in serious trouble.

The history of journalism is interesting and the beginning of this profession was one that was respectable and important. Journalists would put their lives on the line to inform the public about what was going on, and removed any bias from these stories. These stories simply were filled with facts.

Misinforming the public, due to advertisers, political affiliations, and trying to reinforce the beliefs of one particular audience is another reason we are so divided in America. I often subject myself to other media outlets that I may not agree with. There are often a lot of facts in these stories, but it is often hard for people to separate the fact from the bias, or personal opinions.

These personal opinions are turned into facts, and are often used for attacks against issues. A few examples include global warming, poverty and violence, and our failing educational system. With everyone running around with a briefcase full of false facts, it is easy to understand why nothing is being done to address these issues at all.

So I suggest that we hold our media accountable. We the people, demand that the media informs the audience of not who just their parent company is, but who donates and funds them. If we have access to this information then we can see that things in this country may not be as dire as some say. There could be a solution, but if a solution is found would they keep their audience?

Do not get me wrong. I do not want every show to be filled with screaming individuals that have an audience to keep, and profit from. There are many profiteers in our current media filled world. There are those that profit from hate and misinformation to a degree that could often equate to treason.

Another small victory that we can take away from this election is that no matter how much money is spent it is hard to win an election. While some media outlets were discussing the amount of money that was spent and lack of return on investment, I was laughing. The reason that I was laughing is because the amount of money that was spent is nothing compared to their real wealth. With all of their wealth on the line, and the environment in their back pocket it is going to be interesting who they support the next time around.

So in short, conduct serious researches, check your references. And citizens of the great nation- make sure that you use the search engine of your liking before you believe every post in a blog or social networking site.  But no need to check mine- these are just opinions.    

Divided America

Now that the election is over, I think that we should all take a deep breath and realize what we learned. America is divided. America is changing. And there are some that are behind the eight ball, and others that have learned to adapt.

The one thing that I love about America is that we have a voice. I have learned that I have to be tolerant to the opposition. Of course all of our views cannot and should not be the same. We were all raised differently, different economic backgrounds, different religions, and different educations.

These differences naturally create a divisive environment. But what I cannot stand is those that want to hate on the majority. The majority voted, the majority did their job. In some states they stood in line for hours, mailed in ballots, and even in the East Coast- they emailed them.

I will not call America a racist country.  Last night our country was reduced to a coloring book. There were only two colors to pick from (not really), but red or blue must have been the easiest to grab. I have lived in a mostly red state; I would have to admit that I did enjoy it. There are some good people in Arizona, and Texas. Homes are cheap, job opportunities are not really dependent on education and the average person can get by with little effort.

Well red states, that is not the case for our friends that grabbed the blue crayon yesterday. Homes are often unattainable, several generations have to live together, and there are no mobile homes, Wal-Mart, Dollar Stores, or NASCAR tracks within a 20 minute drive.

There is nothing wrong with using a red crayon. I do think that a majority of the country could actually use it economically. But when you enter the social aspect of life that is when the blue crayon starts to dominate. Of course some of us like to color outside the lines. It is kind of fun to be different. It is like the kid that sneaks a piece of play dough in his/her mouth and can’t stop eating. Tolerance becomes something that feels good, tastes good, something that should simply be done.

But why are we so divided? I think it is because we often forget what we have. I know there are a lot of people with the red crayon that just hate big brother. I hate big brother too, with his little drones flying over my head, his airport porn screens, and those darn pesky license, and extra tax fees that he hits me with, when I am cornered in the hallway waiting in line to get bullied like my other classmates.

But I know that those kids would drop the red crayon when there is a natural disaster and the FEMA ice cream truck shows up. I am sure they are not going to throw their crayons at him and tell him to leave. But rather sit in line patiently and wait for their snacks and try to rebuild their shacks, and continue shooting anything that is allowed by permit.  

I think the blue kids get it. They understand it to an extent. I do not want to give them too much extra credit, but I have to give them some. It is not the red kids economic policies that they disagree with, it is their social policies. And in this world our friends often mean more to us than anything else.

I was raised with a bunch of blue kids.  I have a bunch of friends that are gay. I am glad to see that they can get married in some states and enjoy the same freedoms as I have. I understand that all schools are not the same and that all communities are not gated and safe, and finally it is not an equal world that we live in.

Yes, we have to balance our budget, we have to stop blowing up the kids with no crayons, and we have to rebuild our own roads and bridges. But we have to understand that this country is changing. I do not know if it is because the blue and red kids are not allowed to play with each other, have not taken any vacations besides Disneyland, or if it is just hard to get info inside bubbles.

I will continue to color outside the lines. I am sure that Romney is a great guy. I mean did you see all the kids those two produced, I thought he was the black guy last night. But he lost. The blue guy is not going to take your guns, he is not going to stop killing your favorite people the sand- kids with drones, and he is not going to starve the poor people to death.

But that is what our country is all about- the majority. It is not about the kids that can yell the loudest, scream the most racist bigoted slurs, created the cutest graphics in Photoshop, or find another way to put Big Bird in a post. But a country that is changing and using votes to start a revolution, instead of a musket.

Black Visibility is not Black Power

I thought that I would never see an African American President, or rather, a half African American President- unless I support the notion that one drop of black blood makes and individual black. (I would have to disagree with that old law even though there are many that still believe that way.)  But our culture is connected to more than our race, and even though there are more black people visible in all areas of our lives- politics, entertainment, sports, and the field of academia- the problems of the black community are often swept under the welcome rug and become nothing more than talking points.

Even stories of victories in the African American community are not celebrated like those in other communities. These stories do not get the same attention and still have to battle for the limelight against stories of celebrity divorces and shopping sprees of the rich. 

Did I fall victim to the deception that black visibility is black power? Of course I did. Who could not fall victim to such a theory. Many of us have fell victim to this theory, and it is easy to understand how and why. We have faith in our country; some of us believe in our country more than others. But the individuals that research and investigate the actions and laws of this country understand who has the power.

So, after all of the cheers and happiness that was expressed after the election of the first African American President, the theory of black visibility vs. black power had the opportunity to be readdressed.  Just because there is a black president, does not mean there is an automatic connection between that president and the black community.

When I speak with my friends, we often believe that the issue of racism has only increased. The pride of having an African American President simply vanished for some. I still have pride and hope however, because I understand that the steps needed to fix some of the social injustices and racism that has plagued our country will take another 200 years or so be realized. President Obama’s victory was a small victory in the struggle for all minorities.

The ultimate power has been in the hands of the establishment, not the president. Even though the establishment has many individuals, many of them have succumbed to the idea that their personal interests outweigh those of the people that elected them.   

These individuals include artists, politicians, athletes, and many others. I believe that President Obama has a responsibility to the African American community. His appearance was nothing more than a tool to trick us into supporting him. Just because he can bounce a basketball, and is probably better at it than me, does not mean that he understands the struggle of African Americans.

Let us look at his actions. He is a very smart and wise man, he has passed a few laws that could be seen as keeping us African Americans at bay. For example when he lowered the penalty for those that are guilty of selling crack compared to the penalties of selling cocaine. This is great- and he should be applauded. But let us look at another focus of his energy- where he is choosing to visit.  I have seen him in Silicon Valley, Hollywood, and many other affluent neighborhoods, but I have not seen him in the Bay View, or Compton.

But when I walk through some very economically depressed African American communities, I see the people wearing his t-shirt, or pasting his poster on the wall. But the sadness is still on their faces, and the violence still consumes their community. Why? Because that is what the system needs to keep control of the society and that is what the system wants. They want a society that allows for the rich to remain rich, the middle class to support both the poor and the rich, and the poor to remain a tool for division.

While I hold dear my conservative values, there is no need to continue to be ignorant and believe that one man of color can change a community. Or that one man of color has destroyed the country that I believed in. The responsibility remains in the hands of the people.

We the people, even though my race was only considered ¾ of a man, and did not start off with the same opportunities as the citizens around me. When individuals use the Bible and the Constitution as tools to define them, to develop their political and ethical positions, they are already flawed. They are flawed because those specific documents are flawed.  They are flawed because they were created by men, men that are flawed by nature.

These two pieces of literature are often used to define all reasoning, but they were not built for me, ¾ of a man. Even though now I can live a life that others could only dream about hundreds of years ago, I have a responsibility to inform and educate my generation and those that are willing to accept that a change is needed. No longer can I depend on the black face and the deception of black visibility as change. But nothing more than false hopes that were destroyed by the powers that be, to keep their knee on the throat of those that do not stand a chance.

So before we make a decision on who we want in office, step aside and remember that black visibility is not black power.  It will not erase the suffering.  We have to evaluate the destruction that corporate America has placed on the poor communities both white and black.

Do not let us vote because of what our minsters believe, or what our parents have forced fed us to believe, but rather vote in a way that will allow for opportunity for all- no matter whom they love, or who they want to spend the rest of their lives with. To deny others freedom is simply being a tyrant. One person’s happiness should not be blocked because of a few ignorant individuals. But also, it is important to understand that for the black community, black visibility is not power.  If those in power continue to only support others that share the same rhetoric, there will never be true equality.

Privilege from the Right?

Is voting a right or a privilege?  Well, according to Alice Stewart, a Republican Strategist, it is a privilege. Really Alice, so I guess we are in Wonderland right now sipping on sweet tea plotting to stop citizens from voting.

As many of you know, I lived in Texas for several years and I love the state. But when a gun permit can be used to vote and not a student identification card, we have to scream out institutional racism strikes again. According to the numbers, they say that there are 1.4 million people that may not be able to vote in the upcoming election.

This next election is one that is critical to our country. No matter what your stand or party, this next election will show us several things. The first thing it will show is where we stand on race. Have we really overcome our racial barriers and are we moving forward. To be brutally honest, the president is nothing more than a puppet that is controlled by the corporations, and others that we do not know.

But if Obama loses this election I would have to say that it is a victory for those racist in the south, that still do not think that Obama is an American citizen. While his competitor can develop a health plan that is similar to the one that our current president has developed with the help of the health care industry, to the conservatives this is there guy.

How is voting connected to this election? Well if there are 1.4 million people that are not allowed to vote in Texas, then the popular election will be effected, which is a driving force of the Electoral College.  Then we can really be looking at our first one term African American President, and I am sure that we may never see a minority in this position again in my lifetime. 

Now, who are these 1.4 million people that will not be able to vote? Well l I guess they are the only 1.4 million people in Texas that do not own a gun. Of course we know who they are. They are the voiceless citizens of our country. The citizens that are punished for being poor, old, ignorant, and often the laws that are created do not help their position, but rather reinforce their demise of poverty.

Many people that are in poverty vote for the Republicans and their conservative views even though these laws harm them. Why? Because they are tricked, like many citizens of our country, to believe that the Republican Party is the establishment for white people like the Democratic Party is the establishment for minorities and poor and hippie white folk.  

But the strangest part about what is being played out in Texas is that in Texas an illegal immigrant can obtain a driving license as long as they have proof of insurance. That is correct- an illegal immigrant can obtain a license and then vote? I hope not, because if that is the case then wouldn't that be voter fraud?

Voter fraud is hilarious because shortly after America has experienced their first African American President, the conservatives started looking for any way to stop him from gaining a second term. What happened to the argument that they had to support Bush and his second term? Their classic excuse that in a time of war it would be dangerous to change presidents. Last time I checked we were still in a war.

Voting is not a privilege; it is a “RIGHT”. It is sad that illegals get laws passed that will help them in Texas, but American citizens often get shafted. To deny college identification but accepted gun permits to vote is a joke.

They say they will not turn anyone away from voting if you return with your identification within six days. For some people this is another hassle within itself. These individuals may need to find another ride to fix the problem. After their vote is cast it will simply not count because they will feel frustrated and not return.  

All legal citizens of our country should have the right to vote. It is not a privilege, but a right that was granted to all. Those in power always figure a way to hold down the poor. Even by not allowing a person that has done there time and has a felony to vote is a part of the scam to silent poor white and black people of our society. Voter fraud is the biggest scam that the conservatives can come up with this election cycle to stack the cards in their favor.

How can we live in a country that sends people off to die, only to return in a casket draped with a flag for freedom, but at the same time deny citizens their right to vote?   

"Now, Say You're Sorry!"

With the recent burnings of the Qurans in Afghanistan, the Republicans have a point. Obama should not have to apologize for those actions because it never should have happened. There should be a protocol in place to deal with these issues. No matter what religion an individual is, their holy manuscript should never be destroyed; and if that happens there should be an apology from the individuals that took part in the burning and they should be relieved of their duties.

But this is nothing new when evaluating the morals of America. Americans have a stereotype of acting like they are better than everyone else and shouldn’t have to apologize for anything. I feel this stereotype is fairly accurate.  But this is rather odd. We always tell our children to “say sorry”. When your son or daughter whacks their sibling, we demand an apology, even when we know the child meant their malicious violent attack, and usually is not sorry at all. Even the child knows this with their quick preemptive sob. The tears shed within a millisecond and now you are burdened with two crying children.

Sorry, or an apology, is the first verbal defensive mechanism I believe we learn. For example when you are on the highway and stuck behind a Prius, you think to yourself “wow, I am sorry they bought that car”. So for the Republican candidates raging about the issues- I hope they know that we are smarter than that. Notice how I called them Republican candidates and not conservatives. These clowns do not have a clue.

As a society we have to learn to take accountability for our actions. I am tired of hearing horror stories about the citizens of Afghanistan and Iraq. These citizens have been trapped in a civil and global war. Their lives will never be the same, for the good or the bad we do not know. We will only learn the real stories in the next few years.

An apology is the right move Mr. Obama. One would think that individuals that are so deeply entrenched in their religion would understand this.  And also, they should understand the consequences that burning a Quran would cause for our troops. The world is not flat anymore, republicans.

If we want to be respected around the world we have to respect the world.

But this is often hard for those that live in such a cozy and sheltered world. I think that these so-called republican presidential candidates need to understand that their days are over. There is no way that our society wants to go back in to the Post Civil Right era. The good ole days when only Caucasian men made decisions for the country and minorities were often never included in their decision making process are over. This is not a race issues, or a political party issues. This is an issue of doing what is right.

We have to swallow our pride, say sorry once and awhile, do what is necessary to make things right, and simply- grow up. 

What A Snob!!

Ricky, Ricky, Ricky, you have some serious issues. When I see Mr. Santorum on television I often chuckle. But some could say the same about the guy that should be in the lead in my opinion- Mr. Ron Paul. As I move closer to the Libertarian side of the isle these types of statements are the reason why the republicans have turned into some strange party from the middle of the country. But for a presidential candidate to call the current president a “snob”, because he thinks that all citizens should try college is ludicrous.

Of course Ricky, you do not want your voters to be educated because they would not vote for you. They would continue their search for jobs that have been eliminated by greedy republicans that often outsource jobs, hire illegal immigrates, and simply only care about the shareholders. That is fine; that is how a capitalistic system works. Not only does Ricky believe that Mr. Obama is a “snob” but he believes that the “Liberal College Professor is trying to remake you in his image”. Really Ricky, this is what you believe?

So let me get this straight. A republican is not supportive of citizens attending college, and he has a problem with the professors. These statements have created a great disconnect and are also casting a dark cloud on the Republican Party. More proof that social warfare will be a big part of this year’s presidential election. Mr. Ricky also stated that he talked to some minorities, and they said that they do not want handouts like food stamps, but they want jobs. I bet they want better grocery stores to spend those food stamps, and I bet they also want to send their children to college.   

Of course Mr. Ricky, they want jobs. But in order to get a job in this new economy they better have an education. And I am sure that a G.E.D. or High School diploma is going to get them to the top of the resume pile. Epic fail, Mr. Ricky, epic fail, try again. The lack of an education is why our country is in this current situation. With K-12 schools leaving as many children behind as they can, and college tuition climbing, of course Ricky hates educated citizens. Mr. Santorum home schools his children, and I am sure there is some reasoning behind this. Maybe he understand that our educational system is a failure, and does not want to subject his children to the real role that school has started to play in our lives, a  place to socialize and find ourselves.

So if it takes a liberal college professor to turn the life around of an unprivileged individual then so be it. There is no reason for an attack on something that is positive for the whole country. Basically, so many so-called republicans vote against the same social programs that will help them. They fall to the same trap that many citizens do when it comes to political affiliation. Many minorities feel as if the Democratic Party is their party and a vast majority of Caucasians believe that the Republican Party is their party. And as we can see that has really worked well for our society.

Ricky, do me a favor tell your children to drop out and never attend college, tell  them that you are not going to give them any financial help and see how far they get in this new America. 

Donald and Ronald

Alright boys and girls, let us take a trip down mind control road and explore something that I think is rather strange. Now we know that we are currently involved in a mind war. A mind war that has plotted half of the country against the other half. A war that uses statistics and personal beliefs to destroy the concept of reality. We all love reality; you know- American Idol, Survivor, The Apprentice.  That reality that catches us humans in our most glorious moments like when we are given thousands of dollars to drink at a club and fist pump all night. How is this a connection to Donald-the-landlord-Trump and Ronald-the-drug-lord-Reagan?

This war is played out in our minds. The values and statistics are twisted and calculated. Issues are thrown around like newspapers on Sunday morning. Most of you may forget a few key facts, but I will explain- hold on. Now to some, Ronald Reagan was the best president in the world. Of course an actor and a spokesman for General Electric would make the perfect candidate for governor. Never mind that he totally switched his political affiliation. With a degree in sociology, and being an actor over the years it would not be hard to deploy mind control tactics. Ronald could be considered a real Sith Lord.

These are the same tactics that are being used by Donald Trump.  How is this? Well first off, he owns his own Entertainment Company, secondly he is a spokesman for Capitalism that is often more of a conservative concept if you look at political figuring and positioning. Donald Trump has switched like a light switch powered by a G.E. light bulb. Donald is the perfect candidate for the Republican/Conservative that has been trapped in a cave forced fed hours of reality television. Never mind the fact that Donald has been married to more women then at the local brothel, oops I mean message parlor.

Trump will not even shake your hand. He says that it is because of germs, but I think he does not want to leave any evidence or DNA when he stabs us all in the back. One day he attacks China and says that they are trying to take over America (true in my opinion), but then behind closed doors he is trying to strike deals to get a version of the Apprentice in China. So there- money is important to you, never mind the lead in the toys or the fact that we keep crawling to them to borrow money. Sure China manipulates their interest rate. As an owner of a casino I think you do the same thing? What are the odds of your slot machines?

So how will it be if Donald Trump is president?  It would be a little different then the Reagan era or would it? The drug lord Reagan did create his own economic system. Reagan deployed a war on the people with the slogan of “Just Say No” as the war cry heard in the streets. More people will be out of work because the big guy hates the small guy. The small local café shop on the corner will have to pay an increase in rent after the Trump remodel. Medical Marijuana farms would be replaced by Rogaine and Viagra plants, and electric cars would be replaced by the new Chrysler 100m- an electric version of the 300m. The car would have a human pedal mode, in case all the recent skyscrapers block out the sun.  Prisons would be filled with individuals evicted from their homes. All programs dealing with addictive gambling would be reduced and replaced by more Donald Trump Casinos.

They have us programmed to believe in stars. We are not running this country and often not involved in any of the decision making responsibilities. The old truth that we are a Republic and not a Democratic society often is forgotten. We leave the decision making responsibilities to someone else by default remember? But how can any of these clowns represent us when they flip like an “In and Out Burger”- the only time they stay still is to take on the cheese. Even Obama has changed his formula like Coca Cola, and I am waiting for the original to return.

Donald said it himself "One of the key problems today is that politics is such a disgrace, good people don't go into government."

Please let us not forget that we are about to hate each other even more for the next year or so. The right side will say this and the left side will say that. But we have to support the people that have us in the forefront. Not the oil companies, banks, or other corporations that pillage the people. Do not fall for the next Reagan. The charismatic, economical, political, puppet controlled by the unknown selling us out looking out the penthouse window.

Leave My Penis Alone

This is the problem with our society and the government. We Americans pride ourselves on the concept of freedom. The freedom to worship the God of our choice or even Satan if that is your thing. The freedom to be somebody or strive to be nobody- the choice is ours, right? Nope, that is not the case at all. We have a segment of our society that is worried about the penis of a child, and the issues of a circumcision ban in the good old city of San Francisco. So we have people in a city that are worried about little newborns penis’s while we are in a deficit and there are tons of homeless people?

Look, this is the problem with our laws, and the things that are approved to be on ballots. While we spend our time worried about small issues, like a penis (lol), we could spend that money and time trying to reform education, or stopping wars. But no, both sides would rather pick their battles and clamp down on our so-called freedoms. But this is how the Patriot Act passed. It is easy, in my opinion- instead of fighting over a penis of a newborn how about we stop killing babies with bombs from drones. How about we respect other religions like the Jewish faith, and the Muslim faith, that see the issues of circumcision as a religious act, but nope if you are not a Christian your religion is often void.

I can hear the arguments, “it is a child, they have no say in the matter”, well of course, but the child also had no say in the matter if they wanted to be here in the first place. I am sure that a child is terrified for the rest of their life because a portion of their penis has been snipped away. I am sure that in 18 years the little boy that has a circumcised penis will have to take Prozac because he is the only one in the Stadium circumcised.  I mean, penises are ugly enough, I know- I have one, I would hate to see the thing if it was not trimmed up a little bit.

Look, if you do not want to circumcise your penis because that is your thing- then fine. But for 10,000 or so silly Californians to think that they can control all the future penises is ridiculous. Some believe that it is genital mutilation; alright I see your point, but what is slicing open a breast and putting in some silicon? That is mutilation, in my opinion but I am sure that they will never ban breast implants in the city of San Francisco. I mean, there are a few men out there that have added a pair of Double D’s in the once flat chest of theirs.

So to the Democrats, worry about the real issues, like educating children and letting the parents make some choices of their own, please. For the Republicans, figure out a way to stop Global Warming and save the environment by not emptying shells all around the world with countries that do not believe in the same things as you. I know, the more people we kill overseas the safer we are and the more access to oil we have. But it seems if that plan did not work out very well at all. Just made taking a plane take longer then standing in line at the DMV, and the opportunity for molesting children to become a full time occupation. (That is directed to the TSA).

Let us remember the goal of American freedom. Not determining who can foreskin, and who should not foreskin. Just leave the foreskin alone. If foreskin challenged freedom then I think they all should be destroyed- no I am joking. Can we worry about some other crazy issues, and put those on the ballet? For example, paying the homeless to clean up their own pee, or maybe even making all mom and pop shops accepting A.T.M. cards and Debit Cards. I can not stand walking into a store and not being able to spend my money.

Sherrod and the Scam of Destruction

The battle of race will always continue to be a horrendous fight in this country. No matter how much we try to say that it will be eradicated or disappear the wounds only seem to become deeper and often infected. There are so many organizations that act is if the want to help deal with the issue but only drop the ball and become worse than the enemy they are supposed to be fighting.

These organizations know that their behaviors should not be included in their tactics to support their agenda. An organization that is moving towards equality should understand that equality can not be created by a board of directors or executives. Equality can only be developed by those that depend on grass root philosophies. Organizations that are dependent on any sort of hierarchy defeat the purpose of equality. The movement towards equality should be fluent and smooth. An increase in violence and tension should be expected. These threats can easily be identified and should be prepared for in advance.

Equality is something that can not be reached in a country that was dependent on violence, control of media, and mind manipulation to move their agenda forward. The past few weeks have been racially motivated to a level that I have not witnessed since the Rodney King situation in the 90’s. But instead of a riot in the streets, the media has thrown rocks and have hijacked the minds of the people. Equality is false, like the word Freedom. No matter how hard these organizations try to denounce their racist agenda they often stumble over their own words.

The Tea Party has final been put in the spotlight and are being shown for what they are, racist old white people. Now that an African American is the face of the country even though his strings are still being pulled by the economic elitist of the world the real issues are still being avoided. White Americans have an approval rating of 37% on Obama as a president, now this is according to CNN. This number is considerably higher than I thought but only supports my thesis that a solution to fixing racism in America is impossible.

The NAACP used their power to get the leader of the Tea Party fired. After the NAACP forced the leader of the Tea Party out they decided that it was their turn to fire back at the NAACP and did. Even though this move can be considered as an epic fail, it still shows the power that whites have in America. Sherrod was forced to step down and the NAACP did not even want to jeopardize their name and support Sherrod at all. If it was not for the white farmer that received help from Sherrod she may be in the unemployment line next Monday morning.

The NAACP is a joke, they remind me of a group of house Negroes that want to dress up and play master. They have not helped move the black agenda forward at all. They would rather protect their name instead of investigating the facts. Sherrod speech was presented in front of them. The Tea Party blogger attacked the wrong person Sherrod did not even work for the NAACP; she was just speaking to them. Epic fail Mr. Blogger attack the NAACP not a woman that is presenting a speech and expressing how she overcame racism to help someone. This is like locking up a black man for jaywalking because he was helping an old white women walking down the street and the light became red.

Conservative or not I can not allow for racist organizations to represent me and my views. See I am smarter than the house Negro that continues to vote for the democrats because I think that they want to help me out. If I reach the mountain tops there is no reason for me to hand out money to those that do not want to change. If blacks would rather buy a pair of Jordan’s and some FUBU pants instead of adding that money to rent then that is their fault for being stuck in the projects and the same for those white folks in trailers across America.

Race will always be a factor in America, equality will never happen. Women make less then men, whites make more than blacks, Asian do not even seem as if they have a voice but continue to wash our clothes, prepare donuts, and fill college campuses across the country, Gay’s and Lesbians will always be denied the chance to love each other, and illegal-aliens are the new slaves. If it is not race it will be class, there is always going to be something that separates the people from each other.

The words “We The People” is a very important line that often seems to be forgotten. It is not just about a particular sub-culture or group of people here in America. It is about all of us working together and living together. But as long as we have these idiots in control they will continue to divide and separate us. No matter if a person is on the left or the right common sense should one day kick in and play a role in decision making. So to the groups that are only interested in helping people dependent on race: let Goldman and Sacks run your books for a while and may you have a speedy downfall, so the real Patriots can help this country (and that is not you tea-baggers). Do not tread on me haters.
