Hate exists because of fear. Hate exists because of ignorance. Hate exists because its human instinct.

There are so many theories about the existence and birth of hate. Really, I have no answer. I have no idea why people are killed because they're skin is darker. I have no idea why people think 2 men can't love each other like a man and a woman. I have no idea why where you were born dictates what kind of life you will live. I don't understand why these things dictate our world. Why racism, sexism and homophobia are beat into the youth everyday. Buried into your sub-conscious, blurring your vision, ripping out your ear drums and feeding your sugary lies that say everything's going to be okay, and the world is better than it was 50 years ago because it isn't! The only difference is that the various -isms are less blatant. We are at war with the WRONG COUNTRY!! Korea is a bigger threat to us than Hussein and Bin Laden COMBINED. But people can pronounce their names, and recognize them and it hold more selling power. Your futures are being bought with civilian blood. With shrapnel's and machine guns and torn red white and blue fabric that hold false hope in its beaten blood colored stripes and worn tainted stars. History erased from your brains, only way to see it is with Kevin Costner and Josh Hartnett. No actual portrayal, Hollywood fantasies is all they are. For every bloody war movie you've seen, the actual battle was thousands times worse. For every article you read, its played up to be worse that actuality, or played down depending on whose side they're on.

I got a bit off topic, but think about it. HATRED is a necessity in this day and age. it protects us from the truth by not letting you get to close to imagined danger so you can go back and fish with Opie in Mayville or box candies with Lucy and Ethell or move on up with the Jeffersons. Imagine a future plastic and chrome with the Jetsons. Bowl with Fred Flintstone, walk about Jellystone park. Make believe that's the worst that could happen. Believe that what we've done in wars was the right thing. Don't believe actual accounts of soldiers shooting children and dogs for fun in Vietnam. Think that only the Jews were affected in the holocaust, ignore the gypsies, blacks, gays and mentally retarded people before them.



wish you well
