its 2009. so what

its two thousand nine. has been for like eight days now.
and since the beginning of this year.

im convinced the world is falling apart.

actually, that doesnt really take that much convincing.
its pretty much obvious. i hate to sound negative. okay, not really, but seriously.
wtf is going on here?

in what world does a unarmed young man get shot in his back while laying face down on the ground by a police officer at a BART station within the first few hours of the new year?

oh yeah, in this world.

i am appalled by the loss of oscar grant. the way he was taken. the aftermath. i am disgusted.

i am literally sickened by the reaction of the commonwealth of people, on both sides of the equation. the supporters of grant, who proceeded to march into oakland and start rioting (nothing like fighting violence with more violence)

but im even more appalled by the reactions of those against oscar. the ones who say, oh he has a criminal past. he deserved it. he was out on new years and shouldve been at home with his family.

seriously, you are all idiots.

to say that what happened is somehow justifiable for those reasons.

well fuck me, lets just let cops gun down everyone with a criminal past.
it would definitely lessen the crowding here in this overpopulated world.

but when they take out your best friend, or your boyfriend, who you didnt know had a criminal record.

maybe you will change your stupid ass fucking opinion.



what that all has to do with the world falling apart?

i have no idea. absolutely nothing or positively everything.

it doesnt matter.
