94 weeks ago @ Race Relations Project - South Park...off the h... · 0 replies · +1 points

South Park is a satirical TV show. Everything brought up in the episodes are meant to joke about current issues that we are facing. They pretty much say what most people are thinking in a way that we can laugh about how stupid we are at times. People need to stop taking things so seriously. Everyone likes to laugh at a joke until the joke is on them. People need to loosen up and stop taking things so seriously. Like its on TV its meant to entertain people and if you don't find it entertaining change the channel and watch something that makes you feel better about yourself. There is no reason for anyone to be getting all upset over a TV show. I swear people take things so seriously nowadays. Lets all get over ourselves and live life to the fullest. So what if things on South Park upset you, get over it . Don't let it dictate how you go about your business. You can look at it as another hater that you have to prove wrong. At the end of the day as long as you can rest your head to know that you are living your life and not for anyone, than you have nothing to worry about or be upset about.

94 weeks ago @ Race Relations Project - What about health care? · 0 replies · +1 points

All people should be entitled to receive proper health care. A hospital has no right to deny anyone service because they are an immigrant. Just because an individual is an immigrant does not eliminated from the human race. Yes they are still homo sapiens just like the rest of the population and should be given equal opportunity to get medical assistance. Who are we to let another person of the human race to suffer from illness just because they they not begin their lives in this country? That is ridiculous. Who is it hurting for them to receive health care? Sure there are some tax dollars but for the amount of labor they do, at least they deserve it. Even if they were not hardworking, they still should get granted health care because it should be another humans decision on whether another human should live or die. That is basically the point. And its funny because if we go over to other countries and get sick we would expect to be treated immediately. Right? Do unto others as you want done to you!

America is a land of opportunities. Folks who are born here have more of a chance to actually attain and use these opportunities that this great country provides. I feel like if a immigrant comes to this country and achieves better and more distinguished lifestyles, why should people hate on them. They came in this country not knowing that much and rose to the top with the resources that anyone birthed here was given once they came out of their mother's womb. I think a reward should be given where it is due no matter where the person came from. As long as they didn't come to your house and stole your things than nobody has the right to accuse immigrants of stealing or taking any benefits from them. These people come willing to work to make their lives better than the ones that they had in their countries of origin. I don't see the problem. They are not working in these high fortune 500 companies but doing manual labor and dirty jobs that most classify themselves as being too good for. So why now that when they start making means for themselves and the pay that these jobs that most don't want to get involved are giving them the opportunity to succeed people have to hate and say they don't deserve it. Who are we to say that they don’t? In my eyes they worked and so they must be rewarded. Why hate let them be free. If they are content with living life with an under the table job than let them be. I swear people always have something to complain about. Stop worrying about these immigrants and what they are doing. Worry about yourselves and how you can better your life. The time spent complaining could be used for something else. These immigrants are not worry about us; they are just trying to get an opportunity to live since they were not allowed to in their country. Give them a break. Let’s say they decide to leave, who will be able to do the small jobs that they do. Will this country be able to function? They work harder than most of us for a simple life yet we still find something to complain or be unhappy about. Let them live and be free. If you want a job and feel that they stole it from you then that means you need to step your credentials and game up. You was not qualified, the employer thought they could do a better job than you. It’s a race and you lost. Take the failure and try to make yourself better than to sit there and try to have them deported because they are interfering with your life. As a matter of a fact, we are all immigrants if you think about it. Legal or illegal, if they work hard for what they got, stay out their business and worry about your own. Also if you know yo will not be able to put in the amount of hours and labor these people put in for the small amounts of pay they receive, shut up and get over yourself. Work is Work.

Its a shame what has happened to the Muslim society as a whole at cause to radical Muslims. Nowadays, when the word Muslim is mentioned people automatically or sometimes thinks of terrorism and bombs. Its crazy walking through an airport and when people see Muslims, dudes especially, they do the sign of the cross of say some prayer. I think it is uncalled for. Sure most bombings were done by people of Muslim background but that doesn't mean everyone is a bomber or terrorist. Its just stereotypes that we collect and movies don't make things any better. No all Muslims are bad and not all at good. There will always be a sour apple in any group. We just need to take that and stop treating the good ones with disrespect. The only problem in that we don't know how to sort the good one from the bad.

I always thought of "suicide bombers" as people who did not value the beauty of life but after watching the video I have no reason to judge. I am not on that side of the world and do not no the hardships that they face that they might want to relieve the pain that they are going through by partaking in such activity. I mean the women felt like her husband did not deserve to die and he was probably a huge part of her life. That was her future. They were going to have kids and such and now that opportunity was denied because he died. I'm not saying that her decision is correct but the her it is the most logical thing she could have done. She can kill 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 9, people for the sake of one at her own expense and she is fine with that. That's like the ultimate revenge, we all find some vengeance towards others, why now are we picking how act it out. I wouldn't do it personally because but that's life.

95 weeks ago @ Race Relations Project - Christian Invaders - t... · 0 replies · +1 points

This class has become a complete waste and this whole "Christian Invasion" confirmed my thoughts. Of course what Sam presented sounded appealing to folks it just like any normal argument? You always research to find things that support your argument. This could be done about anything. So the fact that he showed all those things meant absolutely nothing to me. I find it hard to believe that Christians gathered to form this war against Iraq just to spread the religion. First off missionaries are everywhere in the world so how does he know that those missionaries were strictly there because of the war and to convert people to Christianity. Maybe if he looks he'll see that these are the only source of aid Iraqis have since everyone is worried about themselves. These missionaries build camps to help people. President Bush announced the war on Iraq not Christians. Of course that's his religion but we do not know his daily walk with God or his strength of faith so he might just be a hear say Christian either way it does not constitute to the fact that Christians should be put to blame for the chaos that is occurring over there. It really doesn't
I don't think Sam knows everything so he needs to stop trying to persuade people to start blaming Christians of the war. The people of America voted George Bush as president not just Christians and he was the one who made the decision for the country to go to war. No Christian groups had any rally or walk to persuade him to declare war. He did it based on his presidential power which was given to him by the people of America, Christians and Non-Christians.
Sam always says, "I know this cause I'm a Sociologist" well anyone can obtain a degree and proclaim they know that Muslims started the war in Iraq and paint great facts and figures to support their ideas but that doesn't mean it is true. I don't think Christians should be at fault for what is going on over there. They had nothing to do with it. So what soldiers carried Bibles? That was that soldier's personal belief. If he/she wanted to practice it while over there than let him/her be. The government does not force the Bible in their hands so I don't know what Sam was talking about.
Sam had a problem with the Vacation Bible School theme of making their children warriors of Jesus. I feel like they were not telling the kids to go kill people. They were simply instructing them to be ready to stand for what they believe if anyone should try to shut them down. I also found the pictures of Jesus holding the guns very disturbing. They were uncalled for and although Sam wants to paint this big picture of how he does not hate Christians I feel like he does because the notion he got to blame Christians for the war is simply ridiculous.
Just as others are opposed to the war so are Christians.

I am a strong believer of God. Therefore I believe that everyone is put on this earth for a reason. As devastating as the lives of these slaves are, I think that God has a greater reward for them once they leave this place. Also, God does not put us through things that we are not able to control. Think about it why those people and not us? He has a plan and knows what he is doing. As it is said, God's time is the best time. We, humans, may think their lives are terrible and unfair but in his eyes it may be golden. Who truly knows whats right and hats wrong. They might be suffering physically but they have a inner peace none of us in the free world can ever achieve.

96 weeks ago @ Race Relations Project - Why'd you eat the seco... · 0 replies · +1 points

This question is beyond ridiculous. I don't sure if you thought about what you were asking before you asked. Why did I eat the second piece? Um lets see maybe because it was made for it to be eaten. You ate the 1st piece that doesn't make you any better than those who went a ahead to eat the second piece. You probably decided not to eat that piece there but think a day or two from now your going to get coffee, hot chocolate or chocolate...How can you stomach that?
yes it is sad that these people face harsh conditions and are mistreated but by you throwing the candy away what help did you give? They don't know you so I'm sure their not thinking "Oh thank you kind girl for not eating the second piece even though you ate the first" Throwing it away has the same affect on the slave as eating it. You didn't eat the second piece not because you were passionate about the act, if that was the case you would have been refrained from eating such product before this class, you did it to make you feel better. Like Sam said if you know you will not consume cocoa processed by slaves again then don't eat the second piece, I don't know all the products that use slaves and I love chocolate so I ate the second piece and I felt that throwing it away will not change the slaves situation.
People always want to act like they are considerate of others but they are not. You wasn't thinking about no slave last Halloween and now all of a sudden you want to feel about about sweat-shop workers. look at the shoes you got on. are you going to walk bear foot now?

I felt indifferent when I listened to this mans opinions about immigration in America. It is true that all Americans are entitled to express however they feel in the constitution so he simply wanted to exercise that right. Now whether he knew what he was talking about and have strong feelings towards the situation or he was just talking for the sake of hearing his own voice or for satirical purposes, we don't know. ____ All I can say that I don't see why people are getting upset with the amount of illegal immigrants there are. The Statue of Liberty boldy proclaims "Give me your tired, your hungry, your poor, your wretched masses yearning to be free,". Now that these people seek to find freedom and a better life as promised by this nation they are being denied. These people are tired, they are hungry and I am definitely sure that they are looking for a place where they can be free. Why advertise something if America knows that they would be opposed to having people coming here for a new start of life? This only confirms the hypocrisy that America dwells on. He's sitting there talking about immigrants are hurting the economy, my question is "well whoes fault is that? It damn sure is not the immigrants. If they would be treated like human beings and given the help that they have migrated over here for, America will get its "taxes" that these folks cannot pay because they don't have the same oppurtunities. I'm sure they would rebvel to the fact that they had to pay taxes if they were given ideal job oppurtunities as a normal American. Also, these people do not fill positions that are already occupied! They are emplyed into positions that "normal Americans" are not employed in. He complained about immigrants taking jobs for people but he needs to be aware that these "citizens" of his are all too lazy to engage in the jobs that most immigrants take for lesser pay so he needs to worry moreso about his beloved "citizens" applying themselves and not relying on government assistance and find jobs. I'm immigrants are not given the oppurtunity to steal jobs. But with the amount of jobs accessible to all there is no way an indiviual withthe proper educational instructed offered and required (high school diploma) should not be avle to obtain a job. He should express his opinon on his "citizens" who are innate to all these resources that America have to give but don't take advantage of them. they just lie on their backs and depend on welfare. Its not the immigrants fault for their lack of wanting a better life. The immigrants are doing their best to make a living for a life that they are being restricted from living and I commend them for that. __ As far as the troops. I absolutely agree that they need to get out of that useless war that retard of a man, George W. Bush, made them ignite. They are doing nothing over there but destrying lives, both theirs and the civilians of the country. Its been too long and this war has not ended yet but more and more young and old people lose their lives while the retard sits and enjoys his life on his ranch and what not. However, I do not think our troops should have to waste their time at a border to watch for immigrants. if America will syo being so mean give give these people the help that they asks, illegal immigration will not be such a problem. I mean if America see this huge increase maybe they should try to go the country and try to solve the issue or make it legal for them to reside here. Also if it was legalized people would probably not want to come in the first place. Its apparent in society that we want what we can't have. If immigrants could come here they probably want to sense its so easy to.

97 weeks ago @ Race Relations Project - The White Minorities · 0 replies · +1 points

Who cares if whites become a minority group. There are people dying all over the world yet we spent countless amount of hours discussing and arguing who runs the world. Whites, blacks, Asians, Mixed people or the rainbow? Why? Why is it such a big deal. It really does not make a difference who is a minority and who is not. A minority is defined as, a group of people who differ racially or politically from a larger group of people. Everyone has been a minority at some point in their life. Sometimes you might be the only one who believes a certain away about a topic and a lot of people are disagreeing with you, there you are a minority. Doesn't mean you are any less of a person or human. This is basically trying to make the argument that it is okay for others to be considered the minority in societies but is unethical for whites to reach that point. Like I said before, I have other things to worry about than the whites fearing that they will loose their "superiority".
