Gays...this one is a HUGE thing in politics it seems. Love is love who are you to say who it's "right" to love and who it's "wrong" to love? You can
not choose who you love. You just love someone that's why it's called FALLING in love. You do it without having a say in it. So what if a guy loves a guy you aren't god or any higher being so BUTT OUT OF IT! So what if a girl loves a girl you are not in charge of their lives so once again BUTT OUT OF IT! WHO CARES if someone loves both girls and guys I don't seem you running around with a quivers of arrows strapped on your back and a bow in your hand so STAY OUT OF IT!! You can't choose who you love and it's not up to you to say what is "right or wrong" when it comes to love. Also just because you don't agree with who someone loves doesn't mean you have the right to say if they can get married or not! For crying out loud in AMERICA
land of the FREE and home of the BRAVE you're taking away our GOD GIVEN FREEDOM TO LOVE WHOEVER THE HELL WE WANT TO LOVE!! Correct me if I'm wrong but that sure as hell doesn't sound very good to me now does it? I personally am straight such as not the popular belief. I just hate how gays and all the rest are treated. Most of my best friends are gay, bi, trans or the like. I love them to death just as I do my straight friends. I've DATED bi gays and I like being with them more. Then I don't hear all the nasty things about gays and the rest. I'm sorry but it's just not right. I don't see why people fear change like they do. Adults are always telling me and all my peers to be more open minded and accepting and all that jazz...until it comes to gays. Then all I hear is "That's so wrong...It goes against all god's laws...that's unnatural...that's so nasty!" I think those people need to STFU and get a life of their own. I'm sorry if any of this offened anyone but it's my view on this issue and I won't change it for anything. People like me get shot everyday and if that's what I have to look forward to for saying my piece then I'll go stand out in the middle of the road and wait while I scream this opinion to the clouds and hope that it reaches someone who will take it to heart.

labels....people are people no other way around it. So what some people dress in a different style or wear a different color more often. They are just a person like you and me and every other person on this earth. Who are you to tell them who or what they are? You're nobody when it comes to that just like me and any other stranger on the street! PEOPLE ARE PEOPLE END OF STORY!! Why does it matter how someone acts or dresses? It's their choice to make, not yours. Are people so unstable and so insecure that we must label people and sort them into groups based on appearance? That makes no sense to me. I'm always asked "Are you emo, goth, skater, punk, prep or what?" I always answer the same "I am me and not a label." I'm always looked at like I'm crazy. Or how about because I like being me and not some label I change how I dress and play a new part every week. One week I'm "emo", the next "goth" the next "prep" the next "skater" the next "punk" and so on. Then I'm labeled a "poser". People will see me and say "There's the biggest poser in this school!" I'll turn around, look them straight in the eye and say "I'm a poser you say?" really softly. They'll smirk and say "Yeah I called you a poser!" I'll smile back, take a step away, they start laughing thinking I'm going to run away and cry like everyone else, then I scream as loud as I can "Hell yeah I'm a poser and dang proud of it! I'm posing as me! God knows you're jealous!" then say softer "didn't expect that now did ya?" and walk away as if nothing happened. Anyone else ever get tired of having labels? Anyone else have something they do like what I do? I just get sick of all the labels in this world. I mean labeling people is just another way to segrate our society. Anyone agree?

Racism...it's not just the whites who do it. All the other races do too but it seems whites are the only ones to be punished for it. Why is that? It seems because we're the 'dominate race' that we're the only ones who can be racist. Not true...a white pride club at schools can be shut down and all the students arrested...the African-American, latino, mexican, italian, greek, etc clubs are left alone. Not right. A white can be killed by a person of another race and it's just a murder. A white kills someone of another race, it's a hate crime and a murder. What gives? Who says this has to be a part of our lives? Who says that we have to sit back and deal with this? It is MY generation, the 90's children, the FUTURE RULERS OF THE WORLD who can change this!! We don't have to sit back and LET racism rule our lives!! We can stand up for what we believe in and when they want to tell the white kids it's racism...get one of your friends of a different race to do the same thing, see if they say anything then. Get it on video tape too and show them just what happened and ask them "Why is it racist when I, a white person, do this but not them, a (insert other person's race here), do it?" see if they can answer THAT! I BET you they'll say something about whites being the majority. RACISM IS STILL RACISM NO MATTER WHO'S BEING RACIST!!!!!

I don’t know why but sometimes life just seems like its moving too fast. One day your happy and then the next your life is just spinning out of control and you have no idea what’s going to happen next. It’s like you’re going to be left behind if you blink. Maybe that’s why so many teens are messed up now. Because life is just leaving us behind. Alright so we’re all ’free and equal’ right? So why is there racism and sexism and all that crap? Why are Bisexuals and gays treated differently then straights? Why are men and women treated differently? Why can’t women get the great jobs without working their asses off or doing their employers ’favors’? It makes me sick to my stomach thinking about the ineqality of it all. I mean we live in America were everyone is ’free and equal’ but all we see is inequality. All the adults want to say is ’Well some kids just aren’t accepting.’ If that’s true then I think most people in my generation are the adults and most people in my parents and grand parents and great-grandparents generations are the kids or the children. Us ’kids’ seem more willing to accept and more open to change and differences then the older generations, yet we’re the immature ones according to them. They refuse to let their children hang out with someone or stay the night at someone’s house if they are bi or gay. Yeah sure we’re the unaccepting and immature ones. (insert you choice of fed up and impatiant expressions here) Also love? Yeah it hurts like crazy, so why do we still try to find it? Why do we still want it so bad? Why do we go to such lengths to find something that will always hurt no matter what? Maybe we fool ourselves into thinking that everything will be alright, that we won’t be hurt....’because we like the view’. Or maybe we want to be held, want to feel secure....to be ’safe in the arms of love.’  We can try all we want to fool ourselves but love will always hurt but one day we’ll all ’wake up and smell the break up.’ one day they’ll ’look down at your hand and see an I Heart ? written on the back of your hand.’ until that day we will hurt and we will search for that little thing called love. I think this world is just ready to explode. It needs to, there’s so much hate and pain and suffering in this world that it’s a wonder things like love, acceptance and safe still exist. Maybe us ’kids’ should start a peace movement. I know peace is just a dream but it seems to me like it’s slowly fading fast. I don’t know about you but my wish for April 2008 is that people won’t fight or argue when it’s not nesacary. All through April I’m going to wear a white peace ribbon or bracelet to remind myself not to fight and to just be peaceful, to try to bring a little more harmony and peace to my life. If you’re in this with me awesome!
