OH and since they are so fucking adorable they must be idol-worshipped and imitated constantly. OH AND! it's also really cool to broadcast to the whole world how proud you are that you're an unintellegent thug convict right? it's cute to be stupid. and unattractive to be intellegent . . . why ?</p><p>&nbsp;fuck the paris hiltons and Akons&nbsp;of the world for turning kids with potential&nbsp;into retards. fuck them. </p><p>&nbsp;i just want to know why it's so awesome and cool to be this way. what is it supposed to gain you in life? being &quot;bad&quot; i understand. drugs and sex, i understand. rebelling, i understand, this , i don't .</p>

<p>lets get something straight here, paris is attractive because she can fill all of our homes with cash from floor to ceiling, and she's not AWFUL looking. Jessica Simpson has OUTSTANDING tits. If i'm being honest i'd step over a burning child for one squeeze of those things. Straight women have told me they'd go gay for her. </p><p>That being said i don't think anyone takes what either of them say too seriously. Same goes for Akon. Smack Dat and convict music aren't exactly &quot;the shit&quot;</p>

It's very disheartening to see what&nbsp;we are are focused on. It seems the more things get f'ed up, the more we watch Entertainment Tonight. We don't wamt to worry with the bad stuff.&nbsp;It's like we, as a society,&nbsp;have our heads buried in the sand.&nbsp;And the government and corporations are more than happy to oblige us.

<p>They got the guns and we lack the numbers.&nbsp; Idealism and imagination have been replaced with instant gratification.&nbsp; Whether the problem lies with the internet, t.v. or empathy, it matters not.&nbsp;&nbsp;Resolve is the only answer.&nbsp; In the spirit of globalism and the lack of faith in my fellow Americans, I believe those of us which see a problem must reach out to anyone willing tp listen.&nbsp; I am not denouncing the country that two generations of my family has fought for, only suggesting it is beyond&nbsp;this country's&nbsp;ability to overcome corporate propaganda and religious conviction.&nbsp; </p><p>&nbsp;&quot;I believe that banking institutions are more dangerous to our liberties than standing armies. If the American people ever allow private banks to control the issue of their currency, first by inflation, then by deflation, the banks and corporations that will grow up around [the banks] will deprive the people of all property until their children wake-up homeless on the continent their fathers conquered. The issuing power should be taken from the banks and restored to the people, to whom it properly belongs.&quot; - Thomas Jefferson, 3rd president of US (1743 - 1826) </p>
