DO NOT FORGET TO VOTE!!!!!
Ok that said, read it again. I did not say who to vote for, although I have my candidate. It is not who you vote for so much as that you DO vote.
The biggest failing of the American electoral system is that only a few percent vote every election year. We have 300 MILLION people in this country, yet every year we only see 10 maybe 20% go to the polls. Does this say to you that the will of the people has been done? No, what this says is that Americans are so disenfranchised, so disillusioned by the American Government, that they do not want to deal with it. This is why we see laws being put in the books that allow harassment of people. This is how they created the new class of untouchables, the Sex Offender.
Everyone in the nation either is related to, or knows a sex offender. I am not talking about their victims, I am talking about friends and family of the offenders themselves. Yet no one will stand up for them and help create an atmosphere where fair and just laws are created.
Folks, I am not saying that laws protecting people are bad, or wrong. What I am saying is the laws need to be just, fair, and equitable. This is all any of us ask. SO's know they did something terrible once. We know that we have broken laws, and that we SHOULD be held accountable. What we have issues with, is the constant re-enactment of sentencing against all of us when something new occurs.
You know the reports, we've seen the studies. They consistently show that those of us that are caught and tried DO NOT DO IT AGAIN. The laws created to punish those of us that have already been punished do nothing to protect anyone. The initial law is what should be looked at as a deterrent. But there are those, that no law will ever deter. You have to stop bullshitting yourself and understand that.
Angry people as a whole do not murder? It is the deterrent of death for themselves that usually stops them from committing that act. However, there are some that just don't care about that, or believe they will not be caught and they commit that act anyways. The same holds true for Sex Offenders. I am in no way saying that Murder is the same as sexually offending. Murder is the most heinous act that one can do. Bar none. Although some can do it without thought, without any compassion. And they will continue no matter what law there is. This is the same as Sexual predators. Not offenders, but predators. The 3% of offenders that will do it again and again. no matter what laws you throw on them. These are the ones that need to be on a registry, that need to have GPS, that need to be away from children in every aspect. But they are not the whole, and they are certainly not in the majority. The lie that Americans have been told, and then believe is that all Sex Offenders will continue to create deviant sexual victims. This is a lie. If it were not a lie, you would have 600,000 new victims every day. Think about that.
Sorry to get out the soapbox.
So Ok America, is it time for a change, or are you happy with invading countries that did no harm to us? Do you like having your husbands, sons, daughters killed in a foreign land for Oil and Dick Chaney' Stock Portfolio? Would you rather live in peace or do you enjoy war as a daily activity?
