So, I am sick of all of this pc crap. Are you???

I am so sick of hearing how people are being left out of something or not getting something they deserve. This whole thing about black people not being nominated for an Academy Award this year, is grating on my nerves. Maybe the other people in the other roles were considered better actors. I mean some characters require so much more depth from actors and range than other roles do. And, I am not a fool, I know for decades there was so much discrimination in Hollywood. But, I honestly feel like we are getting past that. Not completely, but we as a nation have come a long way.

Before you think that I am intolerant, or not empathetic or perhaps a white elitist, stop. I married a guy a decade ago with 10 times the melanin that I have. 🙂 Therefore, my child is not fully white and has African, Indian (the country) and Portuguese roots from her dad’s side. And, I was raised in the south and had as many black friends as white. I actually got along better with black girls at my school because I was very bold and outspoken, which didn’t quite match up with my more submissive and proper southern fellow white girls.

I digress, I am not racist and I do care about people different from me. But I get sick of every situation being about offending or being unfair to some group, be it a gender or race or socioeconomic group. It’s tiring.

The latest thing that drives me crazy is the EEOC targeting business owners that could be discriminating against Muslims. This is literally setting up businesses to fail because some people will fabricate discrimination like the clock boy who purposely brought a clock he didn’t make, but staged to resemble a bomb on 9/11. But that was discrimination? A teacher in anther class told him to put it away, but he knew if he pushed the envelope he would get in trouble and be able to get attention worldwide. Or at least his father did.

Anyway, I just like common sense people who do not try to create reasons to protest and who are not overly litigious. Sometimes life isn’t fair. Sometimes people will treat you terribly and you may have done nothing at all to deserve it. Sometimes people bring things upon themselves (clock boy). And sometimes someone’s performance at work just doesn’t measure up to the work of others. It is just how it is.

I know discrimination exists and some people will give their all and may be judged on skin color or gender or sexual orientation and that isn’t right. We can all continue to do all that we can to stop those injustices. But everything that happens to a person of color or a woman or a person of a certain religion that doesn’t make them happy does not mean it is because of those traits. Sometimes it’s just how the cookie crumbles. It’s not fun to lose or miss out on a raise or to follow rules one may not agree with, but everyone is not entitled to everything. Point blank period…

So, a lot has happened since I’ve been gone. Most of it sucky…

Wow. So terrorism is always running rampant somewhere. It is like a B-action movie that never ends. But this Paris stuff was just a ticking time bomb and I do not mean that as a joke. For years, extremists have taken over parts of Paris and forced their rule of law which includes Sharia law and have pretty much said, you don’t follow our way of life then stay out of our hood.

I call it BS Why are governments so liberal and politically correct? Do they not see that it doesn’t work? I am not a gun nut. At all. As a matter of fact, I shot a rifle for the first time ever a week ago. And, I got all of the bullets in the same spot.:) I digress, but all of these gun free zones is where terrorist acts are occurring.

Like the one predicted or scheduled to happen here in D.C. All of the areas that they could/would/will strike have no carry laws. But if they come to VA with their nonsense, they would be in a world of hurt because Virginians are packing, and packing heavy. It is like I am referring to the wild, wild west. Or, I feel like we are living in those times, but much worse. These folks are enemies that are hard to peg down and there are no rules of engagement.

I am not an Islamophobe I don’t think. But it does get harder and harder to be around people of that persuasion, when all of this violence and hate goes on and it is rare that other Muslims stand up and say it is wrong. I get so annoyed with anti-religious folks bashing Christians. Especially when they bring up the Crusades deal like Obama did. Not forgetting that the Crusades happened when times were not civilized.

For some reason when it comes to this religion, people are afraid to call a spade a spade. Well, I don’t hate any race or religion. I try to be kind to all, to live my life in a decent and respectful manner and I never have a goal to hurt anyone. How can people be attracted to this extreme way of living where death and destruction is the goal? Are these the end times?

Well, I know one thing for sure. I know these “refugees” are not coming north and west because of global warming like the genius CIA director said. This brainwashing done by Obama has even the CIA sounding ridiculous. If you guys are mad that I am not supporting the president, tough crap. I try not to be political on here. I really do. But if you are still blaming other presidents or still in denial, I don’t know how to help you at this point.

I wasn’t around during Nazi Germany, obviously, but this climate we are in with the president and his flowery language and the media licking his boots, it is eerie and sounds too familiar.
