Day 2; Back Aches.

Hello again. Well, there's not much to say today, kind of boring. I am now a photoshop ninja, woot.
Hm, I'd like to rant about something...
RACISM:

Yes, this is my chosen topic of the day. Probably because it's Black History month, and it's a good time to get these things out in the open.
It's the 21st century, people. Not the 1800's, not the 60's, 2009. And guess what? We just elected a black man to be our 44th president of the united states of america. It doesn't matter if you hate him, or you don't agree with him, but the fact is that he's out elected leader now, and you have to come to terms with it. I can understand being biased against his views... but, if you hate him for any of the following reasons, you are wayyy out of wack. Because he's black, because his name's 'Barack Hussein Obama', or because his father was born and lived in Kenya. If you hate him for any of these reasons, you, my not so dear friend, are a racist. It's not a disease, but you need to cure yourself anyway. Get cultured, start understanding that people are people, and it doesn't matter what the color of their skin is, and it doesn't jusitfy anything about them. Dispite the fact, we all bleed the same color. We're all on this earth together, and if we're going to save it, everyone needs to learn how to accept each other. Skin tone is a trait, and it doesn't instantly mean that you're like one of the nasty stereo-types they throw at us. For example, I'm 1/2 indian, and I'm not amazingly smart in most subjects, and I DON'T want to be a doctor, or a lawyer, or anything that people may stereotize me to be. Racial slurs are so 40 years ago. Let's move on, shall we?
Done for today with the ranting. Maybe I'll come back to this subject later, maybe I won't. Who knows.

p.s. BLINK 182 BLAHHHHRGGG -is happy-
