loosing my faith
I'm lossing it....my faith. Not my faith in God.....but my faith in humanity......like I had faith in the first place lol. But in all seriousness, I truely am. Why? Is it because I'm that E word I dare never say (emo lol)? Naaaaah. So, whaaat happened this time sir?! You might be askin lol. I have....officially come to terms that racisim will never eeeeeever go away. Some people may think that it will, or even that it has. But I've noticed that.....it's very much so out there. It's out there like a wolf in sheeps clothing. In the news, on the radio, on the streets. I'm not talkin about racial jokes....cause let's face it, those are fuuuuny lol. But just straight out racisim, weither it be racial profiling or a hatebcrime, it's there. Just the other day, sometime last week, I was talkin to some white guy. While we were talkin a lady of latin heratige came up. She looked at me....just me and asked "do you know how to break into a car? I locked my keys inside" Now....people that know me KNOW I don't do those types of things. So, naturally, me never telling a lie, I told her no. What got me was, aftter I said no, instead of asking the man I was talking to, she walked away. The funny part was, that dude not only knew how to break into a car, but actually stole cars when he was younger. What are the chances? Also, just today, I asked a much older white gentleman not to do somethin (nothin important) but, why did he give me the biggest tude in the world? Not only that......and this is the big reason I'm writing today, he almost dropped a N-bomb. I stood there in awe as this man said "fuckin niii...............numskull". Needless to say, he knew I heard him and hung his head in shame. Couldn't even look me in the eye. I mean, I've said racist things as jokes, I've called mexicans 'beaners' before, but that's because I knew that guy and he knew I ment it jokingly and that, if he didn't like, I wouldn't say it. But, for somebody to drop a racial slur...out of anger, that's crossin the line.
