Racism

This has always been such a touchy subject for me. I just can't seem to understand how human beings can discriminate other human beings because of the way they look, or what country they (or their parents) were born in. I might take more offense because of my father. -when it comes to him and other people saying racist comments, I flip out. There has even been times where I've cried because of it. My father is a hard working man and deserves every bit of respect. And even though the culture and beliefs he grew up with are totally different than ours, you don't see him stabbing, and going off with guns.

I really thought we were DONE with this subject. I mean, this is year 2008, 40 years after the civil-rights movement was over (at least in America). But apparently people just can't seem to let go of their hate. The last few weeks at my old job, this was the subject that seemed to always come up during lunch-break. First it started off with them blaming some of the immigrants for some of the crime in Norway. Then it escalated into them not wanting ANY immigrants in Norway, and then finally they started talking about the different skin-color being different for a reason. And I was sitting there, with my jaw practically glued to my chest. I could not believe what I was hearing!

Do they not know that EVERY human being descends from the same place? It is not like some people popped up in Europe, some in Asia, some in America and some in Africa. And the place they ended up, is where they had to be forever. NO! People have moved around through ALL time. Would it really be our place to tell every American to please leave American soil, because it originally belonged to the Indians? No, it is not. As of people saying that the immigrants, or black people, or Mexicans in the American case, are more
criminal than others. In some cases that may be right. But has anyone stopped to think that we might be the reason for this? We have always looked down on them, discriminated them, and never showed that they were welcome. That sure would pull me over the edge too.

This subject just makes me sick, really! What SHOULD matter in the end, is how you treat and show respect to the people around you. -no matter WHAT race you are or what nationality you have! I am pretty sure religion is a way bigger cause of war and hatred in the world, than what race is anyway.

I am definitely going to remove this crap from my site. I am going to install wordpress and learn it grin (about time, eh?) Well, whenever that time comes. I am too busy to learn it at the moment. tongue

I am so freaking annoyed right now. I was making a portfolio, and accidentally deleted everything on THIS site! pissed And I was really happy with how the sidebar originally turned out, now it's just crappy! I can't remember how the menu used to look like, and what was supposed to be written about me..

I think I just need to calm down a bit!
