Meh I kind of get that way too Pearl. I'd like to give a fuck more often but holy hell does it get hard sometimes. The burning of the Qurans...I don't know, what are you going to do about it? The sad fact of the matter is that bullshit ignorance is everywhere you look, I haven't been to one stinking corner of this country and not met people just like our friend that pastor. It just permeates every last aspect of our lives and you can't even avoid it if you want to. So what do we have? A bunch of bigots sitting around in a field doing one of the most offensive things I can think of and for what? Because they think its something important that they have to do...there isn't much you can do to change that kind of thinking especially when it comes from some sacred book they've probably (actually I'm sure of it) been misinterpreting for years anyway.
Sometimes I just have to say fuck it, I have a life to live and life is just too damn short to worry about every small minded bigot with an axe to grind. I feel like if people want to waste their lives festering under ignorance and hatred then I say let them and the less people who pay it any mind the better off we'd probably all be. The truth is the older I get the more numb I become to it.
