I feel disturbed that people have resorted to tattling on
other people. A guy who dressed up in a
Santa Suit reported non seat-belt wearing drivers to the police. Drivers didn’t suspect a thing.
Maybe those drivers will suspect something when they get a ticket in the mail. Perhaps they
will also suspect something when writing a check that uses their hard earned money. What’s
the difference between the behavior of that Santa and the Stasi? Some people
may think at least it didn’t happen to me. Sure, they think that now but it might happen to them in the future.
Some countries are bad and everyone knows it. Why do they get good treatment and we continue to give them money when they hate us and want to kill us? I don’t want to see myself or any other person get hurt. Look at what happened on 9/11, many people died and got hurt. American's said, “We will not forget,” but just ten years later how quickly some people forgot.
The Stasi started over 70 years ago, they really existed! Look up "Stasi" on Wikipedia and read the part about infiltration. It’s disturbing, I know. That organization didn't end until almost 1990. They operated for over 20 years! Perhaps after reading about them some people say, “That won’t
happen in America. We have freedom…and privacy.” The Stasi did some of their
work in secret. To those people I say, “Go ahead and keep your head in the sand
and think of happy Unicorns and Rainbows … Meanwhile, some people have bad
behavior and do wrong things.”
Where are the people who stand up and say, “this is wrong”? Why
won’t people listen to them? It seems like the only people I hear condemn bad
behavior are certain newscasters. We need to put aside politics, like not listening to them because they are Republican or Democrat, and pay
attention to history. The phrase, “History
is bound to repeat itself” seems relevant in this post. Even if that phrase became true (again,) after trying our best to prevent it, we could at least be counted among the
people who stood for the right as opposed to being counted among the people who did nothing and said, “It is what it is.” No! I say, “stand up!”
I feel infuriated that our country is going downhill (in my opinion) and lawmakers in Washington, who say they want to change things, don’t seem to care. It appears that the people who notice wrong things are just
average citizens. I watched the news and asked myself, “Are people in charge really that
stupid? They are supposed to be smart. I wonder if they just acted smart to get elected.”
What’s wrong with America being feared by other countries?
America used to go into other countries and kick their butts when they did wrong
things to hurt us. Nowadays, it seems like America acts like a Woosie who says, “Let’s
be nice and talk.” Some other countries act nice but really they secretly point their
nuclear bombs at us. Instead of talking, I think we should let other countries
know that we are serious and will defend ourselves if we need to.
