if magazines are going to devote a few pages to social tragedy, then fine. but at least have enough scope and perspective to write about the things that really matter in the world. But the stories that People or Good Houskeeping choose to run are like, "my child has autism", or "sue's struggle with diabetes." and that's fucking INSANE when every two steps in india, or fuck, new orleans, you've got people dying, suffering, and starving with no justice, no petition, no spread in USA Weekend. I'm sorry, but when babies are raped to death in africa - all the americans want to read about is poor suzie's middle-lower class life with a stutter??!! They only want to read about these little sob-stories they can relate to: that could happen to THEM. So if a magazine does run a murder story, it's a very personalized acount of an amerian family losing their daughter. Well why not a statistic and review of how many unconvicted murders happen in mexico? but no, we want to IDENTIFY... and who identifies with black, african AIDS victims? so these mundane little sorrows get the front page in american hearts. People actually gave money to a fund for Terri Schiavo - a BRAINDEAD BODY - when they can't even support their local animal shelters. they think even a vegetative human body is more important than an animal's life. People buy BIBLES for third world countries instead of food. Our government left the people of new orleans for 4 days without water, when it took them 1 day to invade iraq and give it's people democracy. what good is democracy anymore? just look at america... it's enough to make you sick. We have the education and ability to be intellectual, humane, and generous. We could be adopting the unwanted children of the world, but instead we toss the condoms, have three kids, buy a huge fuckin car, live in the suberbs, go to church, and picket the white house for terri schiavo. i hate american attitudes. i hate how the people i know make fun of asians and mimic their accents. YOU try to be BILINGUAL! i hate that two consenting adults can't get married because their genitals don't fit together. i hate how democratic ideals and individual liberties are treated like their worthless. the government dresscodes you, tells you not to smoke a plant, to say a word on the airwaves. freedom is worth dying for, and a hell of alot of people died so that the united states could be created and protected. and now the libertarian party is a laughingstock. half of our citizens (democrats) are socialist.
i just hate america right now.

God Bless America! I have always had the dislike of the fuck trophies syndrome. I abhore the sight of a mother with a belly looming over her toes and three children stumbing, screaming, and pissing themselves behind her. I understand the desire to create a life "when two are united," a child is a tangable expression of lust, love, or rape in some cases. Why cereate more than one? There should be a limit on the number of things one household could pop out. ONE! After that...adopt the little snot nosed shit heads. This way, a couple could have their rosy cheeked way while assisting with one of our major world problems, over population, rather than adding to its jumbled chorus. The problem with a limit though...the government would have more control over human phisiology, adn that is terrifying
