The following is a short essay I wrote for my classes. It got 92%.

Minorities that have beefs with the government really suck. Now forgive my white, male baptized ass if I sound like a bit of a racist, but minorities need to learn when and how to shut the hell up. The other day I was watching the news and I was apalled at what I saw
You know, I have been saying things like that for a long time now, and it's about damn time other people started realizing it. I used to care if I was called racist/sexist/whatever else, but now I don't after seeing how the minorities bitch and moan about EVERYTHING!!! Now I can't say all the people in all minorities are the same, because I know people in Minorities who aren't. It's just those damned stupid "Rights Activists" that REALLY piss me off. "Oh well we were slaves so blah blah blah blah blah." Or something like "The Americans aren't right because they show skin, and that's not lawful." I am just so sick and tired of hearing things like this over and over and over. Just get the fuck over it already. (I'm betting this will piss at least 1 person off)

You were lucky to get a 92%. If I were your teacher, I would've deducted points for your spelling mistakes. More importantly, you were lucky for not getting a bad grade for expressing your opinion. That happened to me in my philosophy class. A girl wanted to know why lesbian women made more money than straight women. I said that it was because they're manlier. I'm not so sure that Armenia harbors terrorists. I have an Armenian friend, but people think he's Russian.
Armenia doesn't harbor terrorists. The Armenian people are mostly Christian, and considering how the Turks tortured and slaughtered them in the early 20th century, and how many Armenian refugees ended up in America, it's unlikely that they would have any reason to launch terrorist attacks against us, so the government was going a bit too far there.

Quote:Once again, this is the price you pay for the rights that you have. One of the big laws of physics is that power cannot be created or destroyed, only transferred from one state to another. It's ludicrous to think that you can be completely powerful and completely free at the same time.
By "power" I'm assuming you mean energy (time-independent power, if you prefer), and by "states" I'm assuming that you're including mass as a state. Remember, E=mC^2, where E is energy, m is mass, and C is the speed of light.
ok I'm a white male who likes x-mas and I found that most people of any other race/gender/religion don't mind at all about somethings
in high school I never heard anybody seriously use the phrase "It's because I'm..." and all the poeple I hated (i.e. people that did me wrong) were almost always white males of my same religion so how 'bout that
(caution may offend some)
I've noticed that most african americans in my southern state don't care about the confederate flag of the former southern states it's only the "black" blacks the ones that will repeatedly say "I'm black" (most of them seem to be in the NAACP) that had a problem with it I didn't a black freind of mine didn't even the other races (mostly hispanic) didn't care so I found out that all the middle and low class people have equality it's the high class of people (i.e. rich people) that make unequality
so the answer is that the rich (and that soemtimes means government) is the problem with equality not normal people like you or me
(my gov. teacher said I was kinda right when I told him about this)
i do agree that people are using there freedom of speech just a little to much to most peoples liking. however the only people who complain are people that are insecure about there race/religion/sex. if i had one wish then what i would wish for is everyone to be secure with themselves. Heck i have a black friend and he says is 'yea i'm black and theres nothing special about it' i also knew this guy and he's from Palistine, and you know the problems over there, he was a nice guy and he continued to be after 9/11. like i said the only people who complain are those that are insecure with themselves and they also get the most attention with the news, who are always on the prowl for bad news, and as for those two people who had a 'nice little visit' from the FBI. Well i don't blame the FBI for investigating them. For all we know the money could be filtered to a country that does harbor terreriests

That's about as likely as Saddam Hussein having connections to Osama bin Laden (Read: Not bloody likely). As I said before, Armenians tend to be Christian, and they were persecuted by the Muslims back in the early 1900's. Hell, the Muslim Ottomon Empire for years kept Armenia under oppression. And most of the major terrorist groups (or at least the ones that the FBI worry about) are Muslim. It would be illogical for Christian Armenians to want to deal with Muslim terrorists.

Actually, power is a separate quantity from energy. It doesn't matter, though. The point I was trying to make is that White Christians have so many privelages available exclusively to them that it's stupid for them to bitch about not being free to "celebrate their heritage", whatever the hell that means, without getting into trouble.
Quote:Actually, power is a separate quantity from energy.
That's what I said. Energy, or work, is force*distance. Power is energy, or work, over time. Time-independent power is energy. The best example is kilowatt hours. When you multiply a unit of time by a unit of power, you get a unit of energy. The power company (Northeast Utilities in our case) doesn't care how fast you use your energy (unless there's a heat wave). They only care how much you use in total.
What on earth was your assignment for this?
I don't know what to say. It's called Democracy and if you don't like it, well, just vote for Bush and the next four years will be some of the creamiest of your life.
