I agree with everything except the part about the president. He's used all the peaceful solutions to deal with Iraq and now he's only down to his last choice, war.

True that may be, but the scary thing is, he now seems hell bent on this war like a madman regardless of the advisements or disagreements of the UN. In fact, he has now even gone so far as to say that Saddam Hussein has bought into the UN, forcing them to disagree with the US. Fact is, Bush won't consider anything but getting his way, like a child.

Are you saying that you can't stand bad grammar in general, as in relation to my original rant about things I can't stand. Or are you talking about bad grammar that you saw in this topic in particular?

You have to judge by something else as to wether or not they are.

If they say- "I don't mean to sound racist, but I got beat up by a black gang earlier", then they're not.

But if they say "I don't mean to sound racist, but the jewish controlled media is influencing the infatida to order the damn chinks to overcharge me on my beef jerky!"
THEN they're racist.

Lol, couldn't agree more. One thing to note, is how someone addresses another race. If he referred to black people with negative terms (I think you know some of the words I'm speaking of) then you would certainly have reason to believe he were racist.

Thanks for the false encouragement, I guess..

Ahh I see, well that makes sense then..

So I've noticed actually, I've had this account for about a month and a half and I'm ranked somewhere in the low 200's for blams/saves.

A tip : When the author talks of the game containing a secret, read the reviews people have written. In most cases someone will give the secret away, and this was one of them.

Woohoo, Police Captain. *Sigh*..Sad I know, but it's not bad for the amount of time I spend on here.

I'll note the suggestion about seperating my paragraphs.
I agree it's hard to read a post when it's completely bunched up. I just had to jot all my thoughts down while they were still red hot in my mind.

About those self-defense classes. I'm not too worried about defending myself. I'm very athletic, in excellent shape, and have been working out since I was about 11. I can currently bench around 240 pounds, and as a 15 year old, I only get stronger every day.

It's just one thing - I don't like to fight. Anytime I've ever had to hurt someone, I've felt as though I hurt myself as well. I see violence as a very last resort only. I try to reason with people, but seeing as how these ape minded morons don't seem to work that way, I guess violence would be the only language I'd be able to communicate to them with.

I think you're right, I believe I did need to vent a little. I'm even more annoyed by the irony that I myself am so overwhelmed with negative emotion over a world packed with just that - negative emotion. Just for the record, I haven't read the "Whig interpretation of history". I'm just a very opinionated 15 year old who's views typically stand out from most other peers around my age.
I do realize that the world is full of stupid and immature people, and that there is really nothing to be done about it. And I know I don't have the right to say they shouldn't live in our world, though i'd like to.
I also didn't mean to just single out George Bush. I am against the actions of both Bush and Saddam, but I don't have a say in how I think countries should be run, especially considering I don't live in either.
You also make a good point about being prepared for whatever it is that is upon us. I wholeheartedly agree, but I just wish we could solve the world's issues in a manner that didn't involve violence, bloodshed, and and slaughter of innocent people. But hey, I know enough to realize that I'm just thinking of a dream world.
Also, I didn't mean to imply that I don't think there are any good people in this world, that is not the case. I know there are, and I think part of the reason I posted in the first place was in hopes of hearing from other decent people who still have morals and respect for others. The thought that some people may see where I'm coming from, and perhaps even agree on several points is comforting, so I thank you for that.
When it comes right down to it, I guess I'm a fool for thinking such a problem free world could exist. The only way it would be possible, is to have a world without emotion. Needless to say, I wouldn't want that. As long as emotions exist, there will always be room for hate, dislike, jelousy and such. But I suppose I just have to focus on the other side of it all - love, compassion, etc. All in all it should balance out, but I don't believe it does and that I think is the issue I have here. So as long as we're human, these things will exist.

What has this world been reduced to? Some years ago, the english language was a poetic one. Nowadays, it has been reduced to a series of grunts, slang, and words that just plain don't even exist. Music too, used to be a beauitiful thing, full of harmony, melody, heart and soul. Nowadays artists are paid millions of bucks for something with no real meaning, no beautiful music, no hard thought out lyrics, and in many cases, they didn't even write it themselves! Rap artists are among the highest paid, and for what? Many rap songs consist of these lyrics : bitch, ho, weed. And yet we let these people "earn" hordes of cash for a display of talent and vocabulary similar to that of a 2 year old who only knows two words. The whole concept of almost every song is about treating women like shit and getting high - Disgusting. Then we have society. Once again, some years ago humankind was all about morals, honour and respect for fellow human beings. Nowadays, People are yelling things out their vehicles at other people. My girlfriend and I are innocently trying to get home from a movie, when 5 or 6 30 year old men drive by and yell sexual comments at her. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I thought people grew out of the stage of yelling out of vehicles at around the age of 6. Guess I underestimated the developmental and learning capabilities of people these days. I mean honestly what the hell kind of sorry excuse for a grown man is that? Yelling sexual comments at a 15 year old girl, once again - Disgusting. And yet like a fool I think that there are pure hearted and good people in this world, they're the ones who hold high places, right? Wrong. We have the president of the United States of America solving his issues through the solution of violence. Again, I thought we learned problems were not to be resolved that way somewhere around the time we evolved from neanderthals to homo sapiens. But once again, I underestimated the ability of humankind to learn from our mistakes. So I have just one question, why? Why does all this go on? Why has the world turned into such a barren wasteland of disrespect or be disrespected? Anyone who feels they can answer my questions, please do. This world belongs to all of us, how could we let it become so grey and awful. There must still be something that can be done to make things green and good again. If these problems were eliminated, we wouldn't have the problem of murder, hate, and suicides. This topic is open to anyone who feels they have a relevant opinion, or perhaps even some answers and solutions, I'd love to hear them. Fire away..
