Where Have Great Leaders Gone?
For thousands of years mankind has had slavery, pain, struggles and someone strong enough to stand up and lead them into hell and beyond to begin the fight. Martin Luther King Jr. and Ghandi were both men who favored a non-violent peaceful protest. Let the devil’s do their worst, and show the world their brutality.
However, when I look around today, I have to wonder if the time for great men and women have passed? I wonder if people are so violent, brutal, and cynical that when great humans do stand up we ignore them. Then again if they are really that great, would we be able to ignore them?
I just don’t think that they are here anymore. Maybe the ones who would have been great were changed. With cell phones, computers, violent video games, movies and tv? Who knows. While there are still people that stand up for everything from abortion to animal rights, their are still people who are good and want what’s right for a certain cause. I look at these people and shake my head.
Animal rights campaigns hates the fact that people wear fur. That animals are being tortured and brutally murdered just so someone can pay thousands of dollars to show that they have money, is not right. But how can these activist expect people to side with them when they go to fashion shows, awards, galas and other places and throw paint on people. That is not non-violent and the only people that look bad are the activists. No one is even going to remember that you are supposed to be the voice for animals, because all they can see is the actions of someone they think is crazy.
Abortion is a subject that shocks me to the core. Not for the same reason it shocks those for or against it. What shocks me is that you have a bunch of idiots saying how religious they are and it’s murder to have an abortion. They say you have no right to have an abortion and that it should be against the law once again.
They believe a woman should not have the right to do with her body what she shall. Firstly all the men in that group need to shut up. When you can become pregnant then you can talk. For the anti abortion group on a whole, talk about two-faced psychos. It’s wrong to have an abortion, but it’s completely ok for these bunch of crazies to bomb hospitals and murder tons of people.
Terrorists say they bomb this and that for their country and religion. We know there stupid and psychopathic, but still these pro-lifers go a-bombing away. And yet don’t think anything is wrong with that. How can these radical idiots expect normal rational people to join in their crusade called crazy?
We also have meat is murder, greenpeace, and all these other lunatics. If you feel strongly about something and want to go out and do something about it, that’s fine. However throwing yourself into the ocean in front of a large tanker carrying oil and forcing it to make dangerous turns at high speeds to avoid killing you is really pretty stupid (greenpeace psycho’s).
My point? We had people that actually used their brains. Blacks can still go looking for a job and be turned down by the color of their skin. (Anyone who says racism is over, well you need to click your heels together a few more times Dorothy, cause your still in Oz.) But blacks have the freedoms today that our ancestors never would dream they could have. That is thanks to many great people, blacks and whites who stood up for what was wrong. We still have people who stand up for what is wrong, but their more likely to throw a brick in your head after they stand, than deliver a moving speech that would unite everyone listening to it. Ah progression. Don’t you just love it?
