I just got this in an an e-mail. It disturbs me. I mean, I know there are people out there who feel this way, but I try to keep faith in my fellow humans. This is a reminder of how far we have to go. Don't get me wrong, there are things in here that I agree with wholeheartedly, but that just makes the ignorant, rude, selfish stuff that much worse because they are trying to sneak the bad stuff in with the good.

I Am Your Worst Nightmare. I am a BAD American.
I like big cars, big tits, and big cigars.
I believe the money I make belongs to me and my family, not some mid-level governmental functionary with a bad comb-over who wants to give it away to crack whores squirting out babies.
I'm not in touch with my feelings and I like it that way, dammit.
I believe no one ever died because of something Ozzy Osbourne, Ice-T or Marilyn Manson sang.
I think owning a gun doesn't make you a killer.
I believe it's called the Boy Scouts for a reason.
I don't think being a minority makes you noble or victimized.
I don't celebrate Kwanzaa.
I believe that if you are selling me a Big Mac, you'd better do it in English.
I don't use the excuse "it's for the children" as a shield for unpopular opinions or actions.
I think Oprah is a big fat pig.
I think fireworks should be legal on the 4th of July.
I think that being a student doesn't give you any more enlightenment than working at Blockbuster. In fact, if your parents are footing the bill to put your pansy ass through 4-7 years of school, you haven't begun to be enlightened.
I don't want to eat or drink anything with the words light, lite or fat-free on the package.
I believe everyone has a right to pray to his or her God or gods, just leave the rest of us out of it. This also applies to sexuality.
My heroes are John Wayne, the Simpsons, and whoever canceled Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman.
I don't hate the rich. I don't pity the poor.
I know wrestling is fake and I don't waste my time arguing about it.
I think global warming is a big lie. Where are all those experts now, when I am freezing my ass through a long winter?
I've never owned a slave, or was a slave, I didn't wander forty years in the desert after getting chased out of Egypt, I haven't burned any witches or been persecuted by the Turks and neither have you, so shut-the-fuck-up already.
I want to know which church is it exactly where the Rev. Jessie Jackson preaches. And where does he get his money. And why is he always part of the problem and not the solution.
I think the cops have every right to shoot your sorry ass if you're running from them. I also think they have the right to pull your ass over if you are breaking the law, regardless of what color you are.
I think if you are too stupid to know how a ballot works, I don't want you deciding who should be running the most powerful nation the world for the next four years.
I worry about dying before I get even.
I hate those bastards standing in the intersections trying to sell me crap or trying to guilt me into making 'donations' to their cause. These people should be targets.
I think if you are in the passing lane, and not passing, your license should be revoked, and you should be forced to ride the bus until you promise to never delay the rest of us again.
I think beef jerky could quite possibly be the perfect food.
I enjoy watching high speed pursuits, the more damage the better.
I believe that it doesn't take a village to raise a child, it takes two parents.
I think tattoos and piercing are fine if you want them, but please don't pretend they are a political statement.
I think Dr. Seuss was a genius.
I'm neither angry nor disenfranchised, no matter how desperately the mainstream media would like the world to believe otherwise.
I believe if she has her lips on your penis, it is sex, and it is sex for both of you. This even applies when she is a fat pig with self esteem issues, and you are President of the United States.
If that makes me a bad American, then yes, I'm a bad American. If you too are a bad American please forward this to everyone you know. We need our country back.

whenever i run into stuff like this
Date: 2001-03-26 08:12 am (UTC)From: (Anonymous)It doesn't make me happy, no. I find that it makes the world a little harder to live in, knowing that these attitudes exist, and no matter how good I do in the world, no matter how much I surround myself with like-minded people, no matter how hard I strive to be a good person, there will always be someone out there (actually more like several someones) who will only see a color. Or a gender. Or a size or shape. Or who I love.
And for every hundred people like this, there's probably at least one of them who wouldn't mind killing me for being different.
Hell, I had an ex-acquaintance call me a "nigger" lately, so this brings it all up sharp in my mind.
Welcome to the 21st century. Enjoy your stay.
Yer pal,
syzygy
(free to be you and me)
Hello!!!

Ms Eff, who has to put up with all that stupid shit whenever she visits her relatives, and it always makes her frustrated and angry and sad. (And I call them on it, too. They hate that. Good.)

I agree...

=(
Date: 2001-03-26 08:33 am (UTC)From:but there a lot of people like that out there.....
all I know to do is raise my kids with open, fresh, untainted minds....
The golden rule is what we try to live by.
I don't think I can even get angry...it just makes me sad.
