Stupid acts of violence...

[ayoub]

This has to be one of the funniest news items I've read in a while...

Funny, as in that handbasket had better be ready soon for the ride into hell... Of all the reasons for violence in the world, this has to be one of the most ridiculous.

Reading further into the article, though, it seems like the whole thing is rooted in homophobia... Which just makes it even more ridiculous.

Will the human race ever grow up?

Hell in a handbasket about sums that up nicely.

Yeah...

Guh... It did sound sort of funny at first, but you're right... Hell in a handbasket, indeed.

Hopefully there won't be any violence in that town fair next month...

I hope so too...

Nope, the human race will never grow up.

I have a hard time understanding how and why people are so intolerant to each other. I mean, who is it hurting for people to be who they are, really?

People fear whatever is different... And they don't like feeling fear...

Oh the poor emo kids.

Hey, at least now they have something to be emo about!

(just joking, kind of)

I believe it was Jimi Hendrix who said "When the power of love overcomes the love of power the world will know peace"


I am sitting waiting. Patiently.

I think we're in for a long wait...

My first thought was, omg it's my students. Seriously, there are about 4 kids in the photo that look so much like some of my kids. :) But yeah, this is going on here too. But maybe that is because we are pretty much part of Mexico.

And I agree. It is dumb.

[ayoub.livejournal.com]

Very dumb...

Well, I make no secret how I feel about stuff like this anyway. :)
