So, we have some major issues that the government are stressing. But why are they not hitting the real major issues like TOLERANCE, EQUALITY, and JUSTICE! Thats what we want right? Yeah, thats what I want them to work on. I need to know why blacks and latinos and other people of color are still being stereotyped? I want to know why, as a nation, we are not standing up for the equal rights and civil liberties of our people?
America is the so called "melting pot" so why do we allow people to force their beliefs and prejudices on us. So what gays are getting married... you let them pay taxes. So what people are getting abortions... you don't take care of the needy children we now have. So what people aren't all Christians and Catholics... you let Christians beat us, condemn us, and judge us too long. You let Catholics rape their holy women and molest young men for too long. Why are these not the issues?
How many of you feel as though people have lost sight of what's reality?
Just this past week I have heard things come out of people's mouths that took me back in time at least 40 years... how can they say these things. You know who these people are who constantly try to oppress and take away freedoms. They govern your states, they lead your congregations, they live in your home. These people are the reason there are young children learning hate at a young age. They are the reasons people with black skin are immediately profiled no matter how well-dressed, well-educated, or well-spoken, as they say. They are the reason there are such terms as well-dressed. Why should how one dresses even be an issue in a free America.
As the years go by we are becoming less and less free... well, my people have never been completely free here and that in itself is a slap in the face for our government. Since the civil rights movement in the 60's, we have seen the hatred in Americans like never before. Our country came to a cross roads when we elected our 1st black president and now as they say "the shyt has hit the fan!"
Radical conservatives have lost their minds. From denying global warming and evolution to trying to push all who support homosexual rights and science to the left wing calling us extremists. Since when is intelligence extreme? Since we let rich numb skulls into the cockpit of our country.
One day there will be an enlightenment. One day there will be freedom. One day we will look around and turn our backs on racism, intolerance, and ignorance because we can not be the land of the free as long as we accept these things.
