This is My Good-Bye to These Divide States of Embarassment...
I can no longer take part in this hypocrisy...
I hear Canada is nice this time of year, I guess it's a lot less cold than we all assume. I'll have to consult the cartographers for social equality, as i'm sure it's one of the many things they keep up on.
Yes, that was a West Wing reference, but they happen to exist.
I'm done being angry. I was angry for almost a week now. Well, actually I've been angry for much longer than that. Now, i'm sickened and disappointed.
I can't believe these people exist, or even worse, they exist as the majority. I've always been one for dissent, and of the minority opinion, but of recent, the stakes got too high. I wish I would have done more. I wish I could have done more. I wish any action i'd of taken, would have really made a difference. Well, actually, I could've shot Bush, then Chenney, but I don't know that that would've really made a difference. Well, actually I doubt I would've been successful, or survived.
Lets do something realistic, let's take a look at the numbers... The statistical mishaps...
http://www.cnn.com/ELECTION/2004/pages/results/states/US/P/00/epolls.0.html
Consider that these are based off of exit polls, and are generally useless, and are only the opinion of 13,660 Respondents.
These statistics represent the trends we expected.
Let's talk about the one that really piss me off.
We'll start with one you'll not see on this page, the landside victory of bigotry...
75% to 25% was the margain at which a CONSTITUTIONAL FUCKING AMMENDMENT, "PROTECTING" the concept of marriage, to be constrained to the classic definition , between a man and a woman was passed.
Not to suggest that it's the ultimate doctrine of law, but it's really quite close. How can you justify such a small minded act, reflecting such a small minded ideology. I think i've mentioned in the past that i'm "gay friendly" or what I like to refer to as a reasonable fucking human being. Next, these Fascists will tell those of varied other races that they believe that nature didn't intend for them to marry. Not to suggest this flood-gate syndrome, where as everything is over exaggerated to draw a contrast. These are PEOPLE, human beings, like you and I. More over, Marriage doesn't need protection from them, it needs protection from everyone. When the divorce rate rises above 50%, I don't think excluding homosexuals from this legal binding is the answer. This is just America's way of saying i'm better than something else. This is bullshit.
I was going to move to Canada. I was going to fold. I was going to abandon the fight, and just let those in power stay in power.
But with my fist in the air, i'll defy everything i'm against, until my days end.
I shall never give up, nor concede, I know my fight is the good fight, and you better watch your ass if you oppose me.
That's it.

p.s.- As much as i'd assumed it in the past, it's good to know i'm better than the majority...
p.s.s- Do not go gentle into that good night. Rage, rage against the dying of the light. -Dylan Thomas
