    I get worked up into emotional funks so easily! Like the other night I was in the car with my best best buddy listening to CNN and I got so depressed hearing about the murders and deaths and the war on iraq that I changed it to my favorite station. The song when a soldier makes it home came on (very emotional song for me) and I started sobbing. I just don't understand how we can all be so blind! It confuses me greatly how we can just turn ourselves off to human emotion and act like we are the only important ones. I have seen people say they think soldiers are stupid!!! They are doing what they believe to be right in protecting there country. If we, as a human race, didn't get into wars they would not have to go and die for us! I lost a good friend and great guy to that war. I don't understand it. Another thing that drives me crazy is racism. I can't see how people can insult someone becaus of the region they're from or what color they are. I really can't see why everyone is so ignorant sometimes. Just the other day I heard tell of a friend of mine being jumped and robbed. For what? 5 dollars! She is a generous person who could have given someone $5 if they had needed it.
    Why oh why can't pople understand what I'm trying to say? That if we all look on the inside of people we see to be our enemys we can find the light, and make peace. Hug a stranger and brighten someones day. It isn't hard but it seems few people try anymore. This summer I bought huge jugs of water and gave them out to people begging on the hot streats. The looks and reactions I got were priceless! It was the best feeling.


    I'm so sorry for wasting everyone's time with this rant, but sometimes I feel like the earth is going to Hell in a handbasket and taking me with it. I have to get it off my chest before I explode. I just need smeone who understands me.

    I understand completely. Continuing your acts of charity is the best way to fight against it.

    Go on a respite from the news. It is designed to elicit anxiety. If you really need to know it you will hear it.

    Peace Out,

    Dear Sugarmagolia Please don't repeat that soldiers are stupid. War is stupid but not soldiers. And please don't think of them as soldiers, think of them as loved ones, sons daughters mothers fathers sisters brothers.

    Then stop signing contracts with recruiters.

    Teaching children that the most precious thing they own is their signatures will surely make them think twice about signing contracts that are written by a complete stranger in language that's meant to confuse.. which is what war is...... and to some degree, our signatures are the only thing we can actually own. And without contract there is no paid mercenaries.

    Peace begins with me.

    You took the long way of explaining why I don't care to watch or listen to the news. The news in't news, it's a f*ing nightmare.

    if you get into the military and, you get sent to boot camp... don't whine when they tear you down and, crush your humanity out of you and, then, they build you back up into a killer.
    if your not officer materal; your a grunt and, grunts get turned into killers.
    grunts are dogmeat to the military organzation.
    a grunts' job is to kill, die and, to kiss officer ass.
    that is just how the military culture has always been.
    people go into the military. the military dehumanizes them and, turns them into toilet paper. the high brass wipes their asses with them. after they are used up, they are thrown away.
    if you did not know that, when you went into the military... you'll know it when, they wash their hand of you, when your no longer usefull.

    there are "things" walking around out in the world that, look and act like they are human... THEY ARE NOT!
    they are monsters. HUMAN MONSTERS!
    these monsters have no conscience AT ALL!
    they have no moral sense of right and wrong.
    they are AMORAL!
    they know nothing but their hunger and, they do fuck over and, feed on others everyday to feed their hunger.
    the mainstream culture holds these human monsters up as the gidepost of what we should all strive to be.
    these human monsters are our, parents, friends, tecahers, bosses, ministers and, so forth.
    they hide and wait until we are usefull to them then, they fuck us over and, feed on us just like vampires of old.
    they have a name. they are called 'psychopaths.'

    and, there, my dear sugarmagnolia
    is what is wrong with the world.
    these monsters in human form, have ruled and run the world through out most of our spiecies history.
    the majority of us have whinied
    some about how much of their shit we have been forced to eat.
    there has always been a another group. i guess, i'll call the 'rebels' for lack of a better a better term right now.
    the rebels are the ones who have fought the psychopaths and the "silent majority" to make life better for themselves and, the "silent majority" also.
    the history of the rebels, is one hell, of alot of their shed blood and martyrdom, forcing power from the psychopaths.

    it will never happen that everyone will love each other!
    the human monster are incapable of loving! they have no consicence or soul.
    you can't show them good will or, appele to their 'better side.'
    THEY HAVE NEITHER!
    NEVER, EVER, FORGET; THEY ARE NOT HUMAN BEINGS. THEY ARE THINGS! THEY ARE MONSTERS!
    THEY ARE INCAPABLE OF EVER BECOMMING HUMAN AND, I STRESS EVER!

    i was a practing psychologist for almost 17 years.
    i had to "work" with some of these monsters, as part of my trainning.
    nothing has ever scared me so badly or, given me such long livied nightmares as, really coming to understand that, there are these human shaped things walking around and ruling the world.

    these things will destroy all life on earth in the end.
    can we get our act together and, bring about the radical change that is necessary?

    the hour is very, very, very, late indeed!

    oh, one last thing i forgot to say above.

    GIRL, DON'T FUCK WITH THE MAINSTREAM NEWS MEDIA... NEVER, EVER!

    with someone with your sensiblies... take a good shit on CNN!:puke:

    i think you would find nutriment at some place like the BBC, CBC, NPR OR, PBS.

    go sign up for the daily news from some place like alter net and, other similar websites.

    you'll feel one hell of a lot better, if you hang with like minded people for awhile, when it comes to "news."

    Blackcat 666 - I know where you are coming from - you ask for it you get it.

    But I have issue to take - Your entire rant (and it is a rant) is filled to overflowing with sweeping generalizations. The more generalizations that are made the less the rant can be taken seriously.

    Recently a woman I know stated that Obama lies!! My wife asked about what and she just sat there and finally said everything. Credibility, if any, out the window.

    My dad was in the army and yet you will find no more loving, passive, compassionate man in this world.
    Was Shale broken and turned into a monster? I think not.
    Please, weigh your words with the experiences you and so many others have had with men put in this position.
    How about those drafted into the War in Vietnam. Are they all monsters also.
