What is UP with America

So!! My Rant for today: What the hell is going on with the people in USA today with the shootings. It seems like its in style like True Religion jeans. I myself just am not understanding what is the purpose of these people that go on these killing sprees. Honestly, what purpose does it solve? I think its just real selfish, Hey if you want to kill yourself, then that is something you need to deal with alone by yourself. Why bring other people into it and make them suffer as well. No one is to blame for your problems but yourself. You have control of your life and the direction it goes by the choices you choose. IF you made some bad choices, learn from it and keep moving forward attempting to make new ones. There are to many opportunities in america to make money. I have seen one armed men sell snickers, water, and m and m's on side of the rode. He was making a killing on a 100 degree day. If he can make it, then anyone can. You just need a dream and some sort of plan. If you are screwy in the head and cant develop a plan get help. With all this technology there is some medicine that can have you thinking straight.

Thats my rant for today.. Check back again soon!!!!!

The use of the N word!!

I just watched a video on facebook from a boy who wrote a speech about the N word. The question was asked what do you feel about the use of the N word in everyday society. This could range from Rap Songs, talking with your homeboys, etc. How do you feel about the word.

Here is my thoughts...

Honestly, we as a black people all know where the word stems from and what the meaning of the word is supposed to incinerate. Now I must say that I was not born back in those days and have not first hand knowingly experienced racism towards me, or anyone I know. So I do not know the true history behind the word, I can only go by what is written in books, and from what other people think they know.

As a black culture - I think we put to much power into this word. It seems like this word is an anchor in the african american society. If this word is publicly used in public use, then the next moment you will have rallies, anti racism movements, and Jessie Jackson, Quanell X, and The NAACP will be wanting people fired and explanations and apologies. This may or may not be the right course of action because again, maybe they understand the history of the word better than I do, and figures why it does not upset me as much when I hear about the use.

Grant it, there may still be a lot of racism still going around in america today, but that is just the culture and society we live in. Do I want to see it changed, SURE I do. I would love to imagine a world where everyone gets along, people are chose based on skills and not skin color, and so forth. But as you and me know that is never going to happen, so we just have to deal with the cards that are dealt to us.

My answer to this: I feel if we stop the overall attention to this word, I feel it would just fizzell itself out of modern language. Just think if another race come up to a black person and call him A N*gger 7 times, and instead of getting mad he just says something very educated and walk away. How would you think that other person would feel knowing that his ignorance was ignored. Grant it this will not work 100% of the time because some people are just stupid like that, but I think the numbers would improve drastically. As long as we have so much attention to that word its like a virtual lease that is around our necks to control us.

Thats my rant for today... Thanks for reading.. leave comments if you like.

It was all a hoax!!!!

Okay for real, the guy made up the whole story of his son being taken up in the air by his hot air balloon. What kind of human being would make up a story as such and broadcast it over the news. I think this guy deserve to be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law possible. This is classified as one of many things you do not do to humans. Playing with the emotions of human beings is just a devilish act and there should be some ramifications for his actions. Personally if I was the judge I would treat this as lying to federal agents which in most cases would get you 10 years or more in prison. The human sympathy is one thing that is not tarnished in America, especially when it comes to children.

For the time being we will just need to wait around and see how the American justice system would play this out. But again for me, I hope to see him prosecuted to the fullest extent.

Congrats to the President

Well President Obama reach another milestone that only 2 other presidents ever reached. Winning the Nobel Peace Prize is a highly regarded honor. And for the president to win without even knowing he was in the running I bet is a sweet feeling. But of course with great success comes great haters. Now this start another roar of people saying he is not deserving, he has not done anything to be receiving of this award. To me I just dont understand why so many people have so much negative feedback against the president. What we have to remember is that is he a single human being, trying to undo 8 years of bad decision making, bad judgements, and an idiot cabinet. You cannot expect 8 years to be undone in less than a year. I feel that he is going in the right direction and we can actually see the work being done. Usually the middle class and lower class are usually not affected by the decisions that the government make, but now it seems the things that the president is doing affects the entire country instead of just the rich people.

Once again congrats to president Obama for his recent achievements . I am happy that he is making changes.

Life Insurance

So question of today, how do you feel about life insurance? When is the best time to get it? Well those types of questions occur everyday with americans. Most people think of life insurance as another monthly payment and something that they don't need. Well let me tell you everyone should have some sort of life insurance for themselves and family. The cost of burying someone is very expensive. You would not believe the cost associated with funerals, caskets, putting someone in the ground, its almost like buying a brand new Mercedes 700class.

Life insurance be on the back of your mind like eating healthy. You never notice the importance until something major happens and you are wondering how the hell that happen. Me I had to sit myself down and review all the terms and conditions of life insurance. I have to make sure in the event something happens to me, my family will be taken care of. I do not want them pulling that kind of money from the accounts trying to bury me. If that is the case and we didnt have it, then I would tell them, just throw my body in the flames and spread the ashes in the water ( much cheaper ).

So my rant for the day CHECK OUT SOME LIFE INSURANCE....

Whats New

So i have signed up to become a juvenile mentor at my church. Giving back to the community. I am just wondering to myself am I able to give another young mind some advice on how to live life. Lets face it and to be honest, I haven't live a great portion of my life devoted to God. I have done things that i am not proud of, but well I guess that can be considered as experience. I know I just have to pray about this and ask god to lead me and ensure I am humbled to guide that young mind. I ask that you pray for me as well, as I lead a young mind and give him positive thoughts and direction.

What about the Healthcare

So for some time now people are ranting and raving over health care this and health care that. Honestly I do not understand the situation at all. Quite frankly I dont think most americans do either. I really think this is just another way of trying to discredit what the president is doing. There has already been clippings of people saying he is turning into a tyrant because why: He's taken over the banking industry and he's taken over the car industry. I really don't understand people sometimes. They always complaining and never happy about anything. I feel once a day people need to just take 1hr our their day and dedicate it to thinking about happy thoughts and memories. Maybe this world will be a better place. My motto is no matter what you are going there is someone out there worse off.

So back to this health care thing, what are they really talking about. How will this affect the middle class, and lower class people, because to be honest that is really what the reform is all about. To me it seems like the president is trying to level the playing field with the work that he is doing. Rich people should not be the only ones with access to great medical coverage because they can pay. Great coverage should be the first priority for all health care providers, but unfortunately its not. Most doctors could care less if you live or die, as long as your insurance can help pay off that boat. Now dont get me wrong, I am not hating on any doctor and the things they have, I just think they should put a better time and effort into treating and not worrying so much on the money end of it.
