I am SICK of the HATE!

Tweet

I live in America, it is a country guided by fear, hate, and close mindedness. Not to mention that celebrity gossip ranks higher in our web searches than actual news. I am just sick and tired and worn out of seeing hateful Americans speaking out against things that they don't know about. They hate because they fear, and they fear because they don't bother to learn for themselves, and they don't bother to learn for themselves because the society makes it seem like you are a loser or nerd for even caring about important issues. I am talking about the large amount of fuss people have put up about A mosque being built blocks away from ground zero. Muslims are not the Al-Quada, and many Muslims themselves died in the twin towers that day because, they WORKED there. I am talking about the opposition to gay marriage. Who is it hurting? What chaos will ensue if two guys or girls you don't even know get to file their taxes together? I am talking about Illegal immigration. There is a huge fuss about the law that passed in Arizona. That law, is simply a law to enforce a law that already existed: DO NOT HIRE ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS. The ENTIRE illegal immigration problem could be solved if everyone just followed the simple steps of not hiring illegal immigrants. But the other problem is that it's SO difficult to be ABLE to work legally in America. The entire system is messed up! I am talking about society's finger pointing, hating, and overall blame of any problem on whoever is appointed leader. It does not matter who the president is, society would hate and blame him/her for any problems we are having anyways. I am talking about society's unacceptance of other cultures, such as LANGUAGE. Did you know that America does NOT have an official language? that's right, you are allowed and within your full rights to speak whatever language you please. I will say that in a mostly english speaking country, not knowing it will make it difficult for you. However, not knowing is also doesn't mean you deserve to be looked at like you are an idiot, treated with disrespect, or told that you are anything worse than the person standing next to you. Let's not forget that we are all equal, not one person better than the other. America needs to take a little time out, and reflect on our roots. We were founded on a country that is supposed to have a freedom of religion. Our Christian forefathers founded this country with their Christian beliefs. What are those beliefs? They are beliefs of loving one another, speading the good word, accepting and caring for one another. Have we lost sight of what this country is supposed to be? Why are we hating eachother when we are supposed to be loving one another? So many people in this country tell me they are Christian, and that they "hate" Obama, that they can't stand "Muslims", that "the illegals" need to learn to speak english or get out of the country. Why is this? Why can't we love and accept and help each other out? Have we lost sight of the goal for the greater good and only started focusing on our own selfish needs? It's disappointing.
