Revolution!

I agree

Hello. My name is Gabe. I am 14 living in Milwaukee.
I want this to spread around EVERYWHERE. And i mean this.
I want this to be NATIONWIDE.
So help me out. Send this to everyone and anyone you know
Post it on any website, really. Anywhere.
Help start this revolution.

So I just watched the movie crash last night. And it's made me think and come to the conclusion that Amercia, and every state and city within it has so much potential to be so, perfect almost. Sooooo few countries have the opportunity to mesh cultures and be as diverse as America is.

And what do we do with that amazing opportunity? We abuse it, and take it for granted. Instead of using this great thing that's been thrust upon us, people fight, discriminate, and are prejudice based on what they see on the outside.

But why? Why should ANY person have to be scared of walking through a neighborhood of a different race? Why do people attack someone just because they are of a different skin color? All this shit has gone back for thousands of years. And yea, it was mostly white people that did all the racist shit. But all that is in the past. Why should what happened so long ago affect how you treat a race today? No one living today should have to deal what happened years ago, or feel the same pains.

And of course, You'll always get the dumbasses who think they are better than every other race. Or think that what happened a long time ago was right. Or someone who won't give another person a job because of their race. That will ALWAYS happen. There is no way to stop it. But that is just ignorance. And those kind of people are the ones who start all the racial problems. Becuase of one thing that some ignorant person says, makes the race that that ignorant person talked about, hate the race of the ignorant person.

But that is something that has to stop. Stop bunching people together based on race or culture. Every person is different, so not everyone is going to agree with something that some dumbass person said. Just know that you can't that kind of shit, and don't aim your hate for that whole race.

And then you'll hear on the news of a person of this race did that, a person of that race did this and so on. That leads to stereo types becuase now someone watching can think, "OOOOO surprise surprise, another one of them did something" and blah blahhhh. But another thing that could stop racism is if the violence stopped. If there was less crime, there would be less racist cops to accuse someone who didnt reall do it, and less people watching the news to think that all of the people of a race that did a crime are all bad.

And even if the violence doesn't stop, people have GOT to stop basing all their judgments of a race based on the fucking news. And stop thinking that becuase someone is of a certain race, they have to be carrying a gun, or deal drugs, or be a prostitute, steal, or any other shit. You can't judge people like that. Try to see the good in people, and remember that God puts good in everyone.

There will always be bad people in EVERY race. That is unchangable. But what THIS generation can do is stop making barriers with eachother based on race or culture. Now and today, people of EVERY race and culture should just get OVER the fact that people are different. And if you get the ignorant ones, FUCK THEM. They don't deserve to experience what it feels like to be open and not discriminate.

With all the wars going on, do you really think it's worth racial fighting here in America? So don't stop yourself from making friends based on race. I have friends of SOOOO many different cultures and races. I love that. I love being diverse. And so should you.

We are not White people

We are not Black people

We are not Hispanic people

We are not Asian people

We are not Middle Eastern people

or any other nationality.

Here in the USA, we are AMERICAN people.

So let's make this great opportunity of a country and all of its states band together, and actually be united And don't limit yourself.

LOVE EVERYONE

How are you going to appeal to the common sense and decency in people when you curse and spout of on ideas like revolution.

i'm against it because i don't hate anyone but i cannot force my views on people that's just socialism right there

Once you grow up a bit more and get into the world and see how it works firsthand and not on some movie then you can send out all the petitions you want

^ Pah! Heck, that offended ME. He has every right to state his opinion on the matter. We were all young once, and heck, I still am pretty young...but once you get into the real world, your views will change a bit. You become more sensible. Perhaps being sensible is a bad thing, perhaps all revolutions are lead by dreamers who don't listen to the sensible (those in touch with reality). Either way, no sense giving offense when offended...but who said you have any sense?

Resistence, i cannot expect you to understand but when i read something especially something stamed "revolution" which is more dangerous than you know i want to be captured. when i read a pamphlet on someone's ideas i want it to speak to me.

Thomas paine, john dickinson, thomas jefferson, and john adams the great political pamphlet writers who helped start our country certainly never had a problem with profanity

I dont get what i am suppose to agree with... the thing has many diff things which aprt am i agreeing with?? oh and by the way the eprson who wrote that wasnt apying attention to there argument because wehn they said that we have the potential to be a great city and all that stuff she went back and later said something like people will always discrminate and she said other stuff like that that kinda makes her first statement false so yeah... and her argument like i said is not completely clear... but i do beleive she is saying to get rid of rascism... but if thats what she is saying then she already said its impossible because there will always be people who discriminate you can't change that... yes it would be nice to get rid of all the rascism and discrimination but its impossible the more a place improves the more safe it gets the more it becomes nice the more people try to destroy it and the more people create problems... its not a really possible thing so yeah but yes it would be nice to get rid of all of the rascim and stuff... you may be able to get 50 people to get along maybe even 100 or up to 10000 people but people who deal with people in the 30000 and so on they are going to hate people you cant stop it... people hate people not because of any real reason people hate people because it gives them something to do... it is extrememly stupid i think but its a fact of life... people didnt hate blacks because of any real reason they jsut did because they could cause they ahd the power so they used it its that simple anywho her argument could be a good one if she cleans it up a bit
she needs more proof instead of her personal examples.. she needs other sources other people she eneds to get examples from the enws and other stuff anyways lol

i do wish rascism would go but it never will people will always find someone to hate because like i said it gives them something to do

if life becomes to peaceful people get bored and wish to create problems if soemthing bad happens people find someone to blame it on its been the same since man ahs started and it msot liekly will never change... but doesnt mean you have to be any of it you can be the one who stands above all of this... the one who doesnt not look down on anyone or cause problems the one who fixes them and see everyons as equal but for the rest of the world it isnt going to happen
