The World Today

The world we live in today is about as messed up as a 3 legged chicken trying to run from a coyote. The things that are going on, the happenings of the world and what we are creating would even have aliens wondering what the heck are those earthlings doing. The problem all starts from us, as individuals, people who elect people to a higher power to distroy our nation and blow smoke up our ass while they are doing so. Back when I went to school, we got in trouble for gum, candy, lifting up a cheerleaders skirt walking down a hallway, honking a teachers nose, we didn't have drugs and guns in school, we were sent to the pricipals office only to have them threaten to call our parents, one who was usually home beings it didn't take 2 parents with 3 full time jobs to make it in this world. Our parents would spank our butts, talk some sense into us, and spank us more. It didn't kill me, it made me a better person, and therefore, I'm no scared to spank my kids. Now spanking and beating are 2 different things in the world now, we didn't have people kill their own kids from beating them, going off on the deep end. That's a total different topic of all its own. We lived in a world where we never heard that kids are obese, we were kids, some of the few had Atari games, but big deal, you can only jump on an alligator head and swing on a rope for so long. We went outside, called some neighbor kids over, played sandlot baseball, football, soccer, or stole the neighbors dads Playboy magazine and hid in the bushes dreaming of our future wife. We lived in a world where we weren't told we couldn't pray in school, when our teacher was sick and we had a sub for the day, when we got home we called the teacher saying we missed her/him, and told them to get well so we could get rid of this crazy old sub. We worked toward goals, achievements, we may have teased someone, but we our kitchen table always had a plate for them to come eat with us, because we knew how to forgive, express our feelings, not be angry or bitter. In todays world, we have problems with guns and drugs taking over schools, and public places. The guns don't just reproduce there, and drugs don't just grow in malls and schools. It takes someone to carry these things in, but in most of the cases, actually almost ALL CASES of public shootings, or school shootings, it was someone who was mentally unstable that caused the mess. But why is this? We had mentally unstable people in our world as kids, we had guns, and heck, I know there was drugs, I heard all about the 70s times. Heck, why would it have skipped the 80's and 90's? That's odd. Well, I'm sure it didn't, it's because our political leaders have taken it upon themselves to try to make the world better, to give everyone a fighting chance, to ignore the real issues we have in Society as a whole. These leaders have shut down Mental Health Hospitals, made cut-backs to mental health, all in a fear that someone wouldn't be treated equally. They have even went as far as sending our troops to war, to have them come home, fighting with demons in their heads from PTSD, and never blinked an eye to help them more than they could because of the dollar. But we are going to try and take guns from everyone, even those who can have guns, because rather than fess up and say what has really happen, we are going to give excuses, make it seem like guns pull their own triggers, they load themselves, they are killers. It's not really the hand on the gun, no not really, it don't make sense some mentally unstable person would kill people, and harm many others, it has to be the guns themselves. Well Washington D.C., guess what, excuses are like assholes, everyone has one and they stink. You have created this mess we are in, now it's time to fess up and understand the decisions you are making, the changes for the better are actually worse, and I'm NOT GONNA GET OBAMA CARE because it sucks too. Every single one of you have no idea what drastic influences you have done to make this world a messed up place. We sure didn't hear of shootings in schools when Bibles were in, we didn't have kids at home raising themselves when the economy was good. What can be done? Let's stop and take a real approach. Oh, while your at it, why haven't you taken the book Webster wrote out of schools too? Probably because you didn't know that before he wrote the first dictionary he could resite the Bible word for word. Well isn't that a shocker? The problems we have in this world all stem from changes for the better that have came down from Federal and State Leaders. Obviously nobody understands, we are all just wanting everything and everyone to be equal, we don't want to hurt someone's feeling by telling them they need mental help, we don't want to be the one that will step up and make a change because then we are going to have bad ratings. If we as the people of this country don't come together, help support each other, then we wouldn't have half the problems we have. If jobs would pay the same as they did when I was a kid to have a parent home, to help take care of the needs of children, we would have less failures in the world. If you can't take on the world head first and put yourself in our shoes rather then worry about which rich idiot isn't going to give you a million dollars for your next campaign, then do us all a favor and don't even run. And parents, the way you let your kids act while living at home, letting them do the things they do, is directly proportionate to the way they will become. We all need to step up as parents, don't allow back talk, don't allow kids to not have respect for others, and if you don't take your kids to a church on Sunday, that is also your failure. Buying your kids what they want, never letting them go without, never letting them have to buy things is just leading up to economic failure when they leave the house. Kids need to experience work, not just show up and wait for a check, how to perform the work without thinking the world owes them anything. Teach you kid how to respect teachers, teachers spend more time with your child than we do as parents, if your kid don't like a teacher, or a teacher doesn't like your kid, maybe there is an issue that is reflected on how the parenting skills are being used. Nobody can change the world by themselves, someone with a bad idea can cause havoc in the world with ONE changed thing, and we as Americans need to work together to help this place out.
