We're on a road to nowhere...with Joseph Smith and Satan...

OK, on the eve of the election of the century, I am mortified. I am angry. And most of all, I am appalled at the stupidity and absolute ignorance of the people I am required to share my air space with. Standing in line at the grocery store, one woman told me that Obama was going to turn the US into a socialist country. I asked her where she learned this information, and she told me "Inside Edition". (Am I wrong, or isn't that a television version of a tabloid?) That experience led me to reflect on many of the experiences I have had in just the last week that made me realize...this country is full of racist, hateful, oppressive tyrants who will stop at NOTHING to impose their ignorance on others, and hence...We're on a road to nowhere..and fast.
This Saturday I went on a road trip with Satan and Joseph Smith. Literally. I was, for lack of a better description, TRAPPED for two hours in a car on the way home from Chino with my extremely liberal & outwardly verbal mother (SATAN) and a Extreme Republican Mormon Band Mom we were carpooling with (Joseph Smith). In the pouring rain. With no escape. Seriously. Suddenly, Joseph Smith began talking about how if that NEGRO wins the election, this country will become ISLAM, and how he wants to take all of the hard earned money she has made and give it to some lowlife illegal immigrant who will by drugs with it. She then went on to say that she hopes some redneck in Kansas KILLS Obama, and she's sure it is bound to happen soon. From there, she jumped in to how sick it is that our first graders are going to be taught about gay marriage and lesbian sex acts (AN ABSOLUTE LIE), and Obama is the biggest supporter of it. By this time, I wanted to DIVE out of the car going 75 in the pouring rain, because it would be more tolerable than the bullshit rhetoric I was forced to endure in this vehicle. Now, my mother is the woman who taught me right from wrong, and she is also the person I learned tolerance from (ironically, since she has no tolerance for my differences! LOL) but above all, I was always taught that it is NEVER ok to discriminate against anyone because of their differences. I thought she was about to drive off the road in shock at how disgusting this woman's views were. However..in one short second, my mother became a coward. In disguise of social etiquette, my mother kept her mouth shut. I therefore, became appalled. Later, I asked her why she didnt tell this woman where to shove it, and why she didnt argue with the woman when she clearly knew everything she was saying was absolute CRAP. My mother's response impressed more than anything she could have ever said to that hateful bitch...she said.."Don't try to teach a pig new tricks. It wastes your time, and annoys the pig." Enough said.
That woman, in short, is a pig. I can't wait to see what tomorrow's lesson is.
so..good night,...and VOTE NO ON PROP 8!! PROP 8 MEANS HATE!

All I can say is wow! Knowing you and your mother on a very personal level, not biblically but personal, I am completely shocked that she was able to hold her tongue and not rip into that woman like we both know she can do. Your mother can make someone to pretend to change their views in 2.5 seconds flat. I have seen it as well as been a victim of it. However I do agree with her and her tactics. She is very right the pig would have caused more of a rucus then it needed to be and I am sure you would have had to drive around the desert for a long time to find a good spot and hiding the body the body in the rain would have just been a real pain in the ass. Needless to say it was a smart move on both your parts to just keep your mouths shut. I however, do think that you should go and spray paint "NO ON PROP 8" on her home and car just to prove a point. Maybe she will then learn to not squeal when it is inappropriate. Stupid pig!!

HOLY CRAP! What a nightmare!

Yesterday when I was driving home from work I discovered that there are a SHITLOAD of idiot haters where I live - on every corner were swarms of . . .people. . .waving Yes on Prop 8 signs and it made me want to puke! I'm not talking just a couple street corners - I'm talking EVERY intersection I passed and it was especially concentrated on MY street corner. How is it that these people are so proud to be a bunch of lying, racists who discriminate against anyone with different views or lifestyles than their own? Where the fuck am I? I thought I was in the United States of America but apparently I have been temporarily transported to a third world country and must endure an unusually large bunch of uneducated morons until this election passes... Hopefully after the election they will crawl back into their little bubbles and leave the rest of us alone - after they discover that they're WRONG! And they realize that the only reason they're waving their little signs around so desperately is because they're going to LOSE and they KNOW they're in the minority and for some reason they feel like this is a great excuse to plague the world with their narrowminded views.

It just blows my mind how the hell this stupid fucking proposition got on our ballot in the first place! I've got people here from out of state right now who can't believe some of the shit we Californians are voting for! Amusing, isn't it?

Anyway, enough of my rant. I feel better now! LOL

The most frightening part of Prop 8 is that it was written and funded from an organization OUTSIDE OF CALIFORNIA! Why does this organization have any fucking say in OUR STATE?? Because theyve got the big bucks to make it so, and that scares the shit out of me.

sometimes excluding the ignorant from society also means ignoring them and sometimes that is the best thing to do...

I agree with anonymous, sometimes our anger with these people reaches a certain critical mass and implodes, and it doesn't really hurt anyone like it hurts ourselves. I am sooooo disappointed that 53% of voting Californians voted to corrupt our constitution by taking rights away from others, but so we continue to speak out, and continue to fight, but at the end of the day we are not going to radically change any "pigs," so for the sake of your peace and sanity, you just have to let it go.
Besides, that "pig" was raised to be just the way she is and in her community, she is under huge social pressure never to question it. Thank the gods that Satan was your mum and taught you to be open minded.
