I usually try to be apolitical and lighthearted around around here, but after reading some of the comments in the boards and on people's journals, I've got a few things I'd like to say.
Fuck Jerry Falwell. Fuck Susan Sontag. And fuck everybody else who says America had it coming. Fuck those who danced at our misfortunes last year. You have no more moral superiority than a rape apologists saying that she had it coming because of how she was dressed. "She was practically begging for it." There is no heaven for you. You can burn in whatever hell you happen to believe in.
I'm not claiming America is anywhere near a utopean ideal, but I believe there is none better, and I will do my best to try to improve it and the rest of the world. I'll admit it's not exactly the strongest of sentiments, but that's the way this particular republic works. I get to work to improve it the best way I can and those who disagree with me can debate and try to convince me to change my mind on what policies I should support. Maybe a benevolent dictatorship would be more effective, but I'd be the first to take up arms against such a plan. And, no, I don't think those who attacked us are intent on establishing any sort of benevelonce. They're intent is a twisted, fucked up fascism with a religious cover. And if I thought for one moment that they would actually succeed, I would support the use of nuclear weapons to insure that my children never have to live in such a world.
P.S. Freedom for the people of Iran.
P.P.S. Death to Tyrants.

I appreciate deeply what you said, hon. Yes, I'm outspoken. Too much sometimes, I suppose, but to Hell with it. However, I've kept my mouth shut out of respect for the owners of this site who might NOT appreciate the verbal haranguing I can dole out for ten hours straight if I decide to (back imprinting from other boards, lol...)
Yeah, I'll start posting, fuck it. Also, I'm getting tired of clamping my mouth on everything. I do it because I'm bad at it, it's practice for someday when I grow up and become a princess, lol...
And if you have any spare unicorns or castles in the clouds lurking around, please do send them my way.
