You know what I'm sick of? I'm sick of every minority thinking their voice or their opinion matters to the majority. What do I mean by minority? Exactly that--the minority. If you are in a racial minority, gender minority (whatever that is), sexuall preference minority, impoverished minority, religious minority or any other minority--I don't care. You know why I don't care--because at some point in time, we are all in a minority, but more often than not, we are in the majority.
If you could excuse my Andy Rooney mood for a moment I would appreciate it because, seriously, I don't care if you've ever felt slighted. Here's a newsflash for you: WE'VE ALL BEEN SLIGHTED AT SOME TIME IN OUR LIVES!!!
Need a specific example? Homosexuality. If you are gay--great. That's your choice, but don't throw your opinion in my heterosexual face, because what you do in the privacy of your home is your business--keep it that way. How about racial minority? In today's watchdog environment, does race really matter anymore? Really? Do Jessie Jackson or Al Sharpton stand for anything, or do they pander to a select few in hopes of monetary donations, thereby playing their base like cheap fiddles? Now that's just a shame, isn't it?
I'm an unapologetic white, heterosexual male. If I say or do something that offends you, guess what? Get over it. If my very existence somehow drives you to think that I've received preferential treatment, then perhaps you should walk a mile in my shoes or ask me about my upbringing. I'm certain my family will tell you we didn't receive preferential treatment in life because of our skin tone.
Wait, wait...I'm not finished just yet. If your politics don't agree with mine, I DON'T CARE!! Nothing you say or do is going to change my mind, because ultimately, politicians are in their seats for themselves, not for the people they supposedly represent. It's time to wake up people and get on with life.
Hold on, I think there's more: if you assume, because I talk differently than you or because I'm from a Southern state that somehow makes me racist, you are mistaken. You know why? BECAUSE I DON'T CARE WHAT COLOR YOU ARE!!!!! Know what else? People of color live down South!! What does that make them? In my book it makes them smart. But who am I except a guy who probably is in the minority with that opinion, so simply ignore it, because it shouldn't effect the way you go on with your life. There...see how simple that was?
I'm sure there's more I could rant about and I'm certain I've made numerous typos and grammatical errors in this post I will have to go back and correct. You know what? I DON'T CARE.
Have a great day.
