I don't often write political posts.  I certainly have my views, but I don't think I need to put it out there for the world to see, and I don't really want the to deal with the feedback.  Once I posted on facebook the stats of how many lies Obama said in one of his speeches a long time ago, and this girl pretty much, in all of her posts, told me what an idiot I was, numerous times, because my views were opposite of hers.  It was quite unpleasant!  I pretty much stay away from posting on other's posts, as well.  Not that seeing things that are morally wrong doesn't make me sick, it's not my job to judge them, so I don't comment. 

There are two things that have been in the media lately that have been bothering me, though.  Today on Meet the Press, they were having a round table discussion about the bombers in Boston.  Tom Brokaw said that it's so sad that that bomber after living here for as long as he did, still felt left out and alienated, so the only answer was to bomb Boston.  What is wrong with this picture?!  The guy was insane, and bombed a city and killed and injured people.  It's not the fault of the people living around him, it is his fault, he made that decision!  That is what is wrong with the society we live in.  People don't take ownership or responsibility for their actions, and the media gives them any excuse.  So ridiculous!

The other thing is the Boy Scouts situation.  KSL posted on Facebook that the BSA was going to be voting on the whole gay thing.  One girl's comment said something like, "So, are we going to have to start walking around with badges saying we're heterosexual?"  Gotta say that is the dumbest post!  Heterosexuals don't drive around with rainbow stickers all on their cars and such.  So, really people are already wearing badges.  Anyways, those are my thoughts on two issues going on in the world!
