It seems some of my Followers are beginning to lash out at me. And that's what happens when one sees they are losing ground in the wisdom generated from the Thought Dock. Just this week, I've been labeled as a bigot, being arrogant, accused of blasphemy, and asked whether I've lost my mind. That's typical for the liberals of the world who demand that we listen to them, but refuse to hear any view that differs from theirs. They cry foul and whine about how prejudice everyone else is. They'll turn off the show because they can't stand to hear the truth, but you know what, they always come back for more.
Call me what you want, but think about your actions as well. Am I a bigot because I chose to live around people that share the same values that I have? I don't think so.
Words like deaf, dumb, fat, plum, bum, and vagrant were around a lot longer than I know, and are still acceptable terms. You say they are hurtfull to use, but you call me "Big Balls?" Something is wrong with that picture. They were not offensive words. They just became obsolete when the kinder way came. So, if I use them, I'm using blasphemy? I don't think so. Call yourself hurtfull first.
I believe that you are not entitled to what you don't earn. So is that arrogance? I don't think so. Now stating that you look better in uniform than anyone else before you, is arrogant. Smiling and waving at everyone as you patrol that sleepy town will likely keep you safe until there is an encounter with an escapee from the nearby State prison. I pray that will never happen.
I've never hurled insults at anyone because of their color, size, prominence, or lack of. I've only made remarks about those that refuse to earn their way and I'll stand by that. Now, I find it a privilege to help those that can not help themselves. The sick, ill, elderly, the ones that justifiably can't work, and the ones that have paid the price to society. And to them, I am generous.
That bum with the fisherman's outfit is such an example of my intolerance. Has he ever helped anyone? I don't think so. Considering the free time he has by not working, he could be volunteering somewhere to give back a little of what he has taken. He won't even pick up after himself after sitting and eating the fast food that someone gave him.
So, take a stand for what you believe. Do what you say. Don't cry when you lose, but get up and try it again. Don't rejoice when you win, but go on to do it again. One's title alone will not win the battles.
Call me names if it makes you feel better, but ask yourself what you should be called. Don't try to figure me out. Just come to peace with yourself. Cry if you need. Tune me out if you can. Bury your head to the truths. But, I'll be there for your needs. So, there will be more of me to come. More ways to stimulate your mind from the Thought Dock.

by the stretch of one's imagination, i don't believe i called you a bigot....by definition you admitted you are.
ReplyDeleteand i agree whole-heartedly with you that you have the right to exercise your options to live where and associate with whom you choose. there is absolutely nothing "wrong" with that.
USA, as hard as the socialists tried, has never truly become a "melting pot". we remain segregated....by choice. as pointed out in previous commentaries to your blog, i agree that this allows each of us to retain our cultural heritage. i am proud of my heritage, my forefathers and mothers, i am proud of my country and the basic American ideals.
i take exception to "skinhead mentality" just as much as you do towards those "who choose not to 'earn' their way but rather take what they want or rely on others to provide."
it us up to each of us to take responsibility for ourselves. be kind. be humble. and if they are not...be so anyway. people "see" who we are by looking at how we live.
seems like big balls got a little red balls, having celebrity status has a lot of responsibility......geeez
