What would you do If you were asked to give up your dreams for freedom What would you do If asked to make the ultimate sacrifice
Would you think about all them people Who gave up everything they had. Would you think about all them War Vets And would you start to feel bad
Freedom isn't free It costs folks like you and me And if we don't all chip in We'll never pay that bill Freedom isn't free No, there's a hefty fuckin' fee. And if you don't throw in your buck 'o five Who will?
What would you do If someone told you to fight for freedom. Would you answer the call Or run away like a little pussy 'Cause the only reason that you're here. Is 'cause folks died for you in the past So maybe now it's your turn To die kicking some ass
Freedom isn't free It costs folks like you and me And if we don't all chip in We'll never pay that bill Freedom isn't free Now there's a have to hook'in fee And if you don't throw in your buck 'o five Who will?
You don't throw in your buck 'o five. Who will? Oooh buck 'o five Freedom costs a buck 'o five

I just finished my English extra credit. Wow, I haven't written in such a long time I forgot how to. =/ If you actually read it and find any grammar errors please let me know. Thanks! The door slowly opened before him. His heart was beating so fiercely now he could have thrown it up. The door was moving so quickly now he couldn’t change his mind. His fate was decided. The sun was shining down so brightly but still he couldn’t see inside. With his breathing so heavy and the screams of the crowd he couldn’t hear anything that could be awaiting him in the shadows. He didn’t dare take a step or move anything. Only his chest heaved up and down. He thought he could stand there forever as long as nothing happened. Then he thought about how stupid he’s been. Why did he have to love? He told himself. It was too late to change that but he would have given anything for her to be down there and him sitting in the crowd watching with great excitement. Waiting for the noble to come marching out or the tiger to pounce at her tearing the youthful smile right off her face. He didn’t care about her anymore and his love and affection turned into anger and hate. But none of that mattered anymore as he saw his fate approach him from out of the darkness… She was ready to get down on her knees and pray. Her body barely able to stay at rest for just a moment. The king, her father, sitting there so boldly unmoved by the display. He knew his fate as well as she did. The fate which she choose for him and he so stupidly agreed upon. She knew there was nothing she could do. But she cried out inside her mind, hoping that, if God was still even there for them to help, to give her, but especially, him strength for what was to come. She knew there was no hope so she asked for a single glance from him. To look into his eyes once more like she’s done so many times before; to feel touch of his hand against hers, the taste of his lips, anything! If only she could spend just one moment with him before he faced what was to become of him. She knew just that little bit of ecstasy would allow her to live her life and wait till the day they could finally be together again. But her hopes were in vein. Although she could not see his face, she could only imagine the terror in it; the void where his eyes were, the trembling of his lips, his pale white face even in this extreme heat. Oh, how he must be feeling now, if only she could go to him and tell him how much she loved him so he too would have the strength to go on and hope for the time when they could be together again. But it was too late. None of that mattered anymore as she saw his fate approach him from out of the darkness… He held his breath. It was over. He tried to dodge out of the way but it was a futile attempt. The tiger mauled him with his massive paw knocking him onto his back. He tried to scramble to his feet. But again, the tiger proved to be more agile and knocked him over once more, this time tearing off his shirt and leaving four scarlet marks across his chest. The crowd’s excitement grew even more intense at the sight of it. They showed so brilliantly in the sun light. He didn’t feel it though. He was only aware of a rush of heat over his chest like dipping into a warm bath. He knew it was over. But his instincts got the best of him. He tried to get up a final time. When the tiger lunged at him once more his mouth wide and his eyes set at the target. He was always told right before you die that your life flashes before your eyes. Not his eyes. There was something else before them. He must have been blinded by the sun to see them but even that would be out of the way soon enough. The tiger’s mouth created a solar eclipse. Such a magnificent sight. The endless abyss of the tiger’s mouth surrounded by the extravagant light of the sun’s rays. He was screaming now. But he couldn’t hear himself; he couldn’t even hear the crowd’s screams. All that he knew was the sight of the tiger’s mouth wide open. And then nothing. The King watched the final scene unfold before him. The crowd fell silent. You could hear the boys bones breaking in the jaw of the tiger. It was the most horrid sound. Not even his final screams were comparable to the barbaric noise of his bones breaking. The tiger’s orange fur dyed with the blood of him. His jaw dripping with the fluids of life and his mouth full of flesh. You couldn’t even tell he was eating a man anymore. His face was consumed greedily by the hungry tiger. Such an innocent looking face it had been but it was no more. The tiger ripped through him faster than one’s eyes could sense it. An arm laid ten feet away. A foot crushed on the tiger’s paw. The leg it belonged to in his mouth. The tears welled up in the King’s eyes. It was a massive flood waiting to happen but his eye lids dammed it before they could go anywhere. He couldn’t show weakness in front of the people and got up to lead the final cheers. Not even the crowd could be fooled but they went along with it anyway and soon they all broke their silence. He didn’t know what to do or how he could commit such a malicious act. Such a poor test of luck. But he could not be moved by such a scene. It could have been his own father down there but he knew it was the way things had to be. Tradition was tradition, and the people knew of no other way. His daughters eyes were dry now. Her usually dark irises were surrounded by a bright crimson. The sight of her like that, a total wreck, was almost enough for him to lose it. But it was not enough he told himself, the show must go on.

I hate forgetting ideas. =( Tue, Nov. 2nd, 2004, 03:41 pm
Vote or... Die? Yes. What a good moto. Who gives a shit about the issues, just vote! OH YA! I think if people really took the time to exam the issues, they probably wouldn't vote at all! Because Democrats and Republicans are the only one with a chance win and both parties represent corporate interests. They don't give a shit about what you and I want, just what the people who you and I work for want! etc. etc. etc. I don't feel like ranting...
Except about retarded kids who think it's cool to say Vote Nader because he's the only mainstream candidate who they know of that goes against the grains aka, Republicans and Democrats. Sat, Oct. 30th, 2004, 12:15 am

I disturbed this sleepiness when I taught: waht is good and evil no knows yet, unless it be he who creates. He, however, creats man's goal and gives the earth is meaning and its future. That anything at all is good and evil-that is his creation.
Ever since 9/11 the big question that has been going around is, "What should we do about this?" And to president Bush and Congress (Including Senator Kerry, Obviously) the best plan of action was to hunt those diiirty a-rabs down. All the "terrorist experts" in government have been behind that idea. And too the American public, that is the ONLY choice that we have. If we let our guard down, they'll just attack again, right?
The problem with this plan is obvious, and the problem with it can be found by looking at Israel. A countless number of people die to terrorist and the government attacks which 10 times the force for each and every attack. Killing Muslim terrorist and innocent civilians. They've been doing it pretty much since the formation of Israel and they're still under attack. We've been under attack for 10 years about. We have 50 or so years of Israel Experience, should we not learn from it? Fighting "Terrorist" does not work!
It has never worked and it will never work. And the reason why it doesn't work is the same reason the US will never be able to defeat Communism. They couldn't in the Cold War and they can't now. The reason for this is these distorters of Islam have created a philosophy, and ideal if you will. A basic idea of life and the world. And you can't kill ideas. They seeds have been planted. They think America is evil, without reason, until one day, Israeli tanks come crashing through their homes and the reality hits them, Isael is evil, the US is evil, and from these examples, the non-Muslim world becomes evil.
And this Philosophy only perpetuates through the killing of so called "terrorist." They're not terrorist, their freedom fighters, their protectors, they're doing the same thing the US says their doing. Protecting their way of life which is under attack. You may not agree with the Islamic way of life, hell I don't agree with their doctrine either, but no one can deny the fact that we can't change their minds about it. Yet we continue to try.
Their way of life is threatend by American Corporation, American manipulating Middle Eastern politics, and American Military on their "holy lands." Ask yourself, how would you feel, if Saudi Arabia was allowed to establish a military base in your town. How would you feel if they threatened your way of life, how would you feel if Muslim Businesses came over and exploited you? And most importantly, how would you feel if your government turned a blind eye to all of it and counted the money they collected for allowing this? You probably wouldn't like it. And there is no way you are going to fight the American military through traditional means, which leaves you with one option, terrorism.
And that is what they turn to, in hopes that they will take back what is theres. You won't hear about the CIA putting Sadaam into power, you won't hear them talking about putting the Shah into power and then having the Iranians overthrow them, you won't hear about how Sadaam oppressed the Muslim way of life, you won't hear about American Money going to Israel, you won't hear about Clinton's bombings or economic sanctions on Iraq, you won't hear about Osama getting kicked out of Saudi for protesting the American occupation, you won't hear about any of this, and why is that? Because the American government wants you to know as little as possibly about all of these things.
A few have attempted to ask Why? Why is this happening? Why do they hate us? And you'll hear the same statements, Envy they say, they're jealous of the AMERICAN way of life, they want our freedom, etc. They're not jealous, they're pissed the fuck off and they want America to leave them the hell alone. That is what should be asked to the President and his running mate, that is what should be asked to Kerry/Edwards. It won't be, and until that question is properly addressed, the so called War On Terror, will never end.
This is the first out of probably a few of these that I might do. I'm basically going to talk about the various third party candidates, maybe a few independents as well. I'm just going to give a quick break down of their bio, beliefs, goals, etc.
This one is about Michael Badnarik. He is a computer consultant from Texas. He's ran for House Representative twice I believe, taking third each time. He is the presidential candidate for the Libertarian Party. Anyway...
Crimes: -Abolition of drug prohibition. -Criminals should have to compensate for their victims paying them in full however much damage they did, etc. -Tightening down on criminals and stopping the judicial system from allowing early releases. -To deal with the overcrowding of prisons, drugs would be abolished so real criminals can stay there longer and they'd save money. -Allowing gun ownership to, more, innocent, people. -Repealing prosecution against people in self-defense situations. -Cracking down on problem areas, poverty stricken, etc.
All drugs should be legal and the consumer should be responsible for their actions.
Environment: -The selling of government owned land to private groups, for example, the WWF or Audubon Society, etc. -Stop turning to the government to look after the environment but rather leave the job to a private orginization.
Taxes: -Gradually lower government spendings on useless things that can fail as to lower taxes and letting the working class decide what to do with their money. -Down sizing government as to spend less money. -Privitizing some government ventures. -Decreasing Military spendings. -Stop corporate welfare. -End welfare. -Abolish income tax.
Foriegn Policy: -Cutting foriegn aid to other countries. -Ending the War On Terror. -Withdrawing troops where they're not wanted/needed. -Pushing to end the war in Iraq. -Using our lack of involvement in other countries affairs to better relations.
Internet/Freedom of Speech: -Allowing total freedom of speech on the internet. -Not censoring anything.
Gun ownership: -Relaxing gun laws allowing more law abiding citizens to purchase firearms.
Immigration: -Relaxing immigration laws but not allowing immigrants welfare and other government benefits as to not put a burden to the state as most immigrants pay mostly federal taxes.
Welfare: -Ending the welfare system. -Dollar for dollar tax credit for giving money to charities. Example, you give $500 to a charity, you pay $500 less in taxes. -Ending business regulation and taxes as to allow economic growth. -Reform education by privitizing school.
Privacy: -Allow free sale of any type of computer encryption software. -Not allow the government to crack encryption of private citizens. -End the use of SS Number as a means of universal identification.
End government social security and allow people to decide what they wish to do with their money. This will be done by selling government assets overtime to private orginizations, allowing people to save their own money, and also increase business oppurtunities to allow more investment of money.
You can find more information from their website, Here. And several more which can be found in another thread I posted. And ummm... ya next time I'll be doing the Socialist Party. Fri, Sep. 24th, 2004, 10:24 pm
You cannot endure yourselves and do not love yourselves enough: now you want to seduce your neighbor to love, and then gild yourselves with his error. Would that you not endure all sorts of neighbors and their neighbors; then you would have to create your friend and his overflowing heart out of yourselves.
You invite a witness when you want to speak well of yourselves; and when you have seduced him to think well of you, then you think well of yourselves.
Tabacco. The very name strikes fear in some and fear in other's. Either way no one can deny it's effect on the US throughout history. It's a part of everyone basically. It was the lifeline of early America. And it seems as though not much has changed.
Various groups claim how horrid it is. How vile, disgusting, etc. it is. Yet, there is almost nothing anyone can do about it except complain and tax them for American stupidity. Not to mention they own everything from crackers to mac and cheese. And, of course, it's use is perpetuated through it's kids. (I liked that changed, no reason to go Marx on you in this bit =P) And since kids are smoking, they're obviously going to bring them to school. And undoubtably they'll get caught, some of them. According to New York state law, you're not allowed to smoke in public places. Yet it still happens. In the school, you're not even supposed to have them! Yet it happens. And nothing is done.
In our school, however, you must take off your hat in every room with a flag. Why? Out of a sign of respect. Respect for what?! A country built off the money of cancer causing items! Respect for tyranny? Respect for American Freedom to exploit people of other countries? The freedom to be a completely stupid, arrogant, piece of shit, and call it it "American." Ugh. Disgusting.
I have no problem against smoking. In fact, I don't really care, but these rules are obviously unjust. And is pretty clear proof, that America was built off of Tabacoo money and propaganda. So here, have a cig with your school news paper. Wed, Sep. 22nd, 2004, 10:23 pm
lalalalalalala... Ooooooh baby, baby it's a wild world... It's hard to get by just upon a smile... Ooooooh baby, baby it's a wild world... Thanks to the quick actions of Homeland Security Personnel, prominent Muslim, I mean terrorist, Cat Stevens, was kicked out of the US. God Bless America.

Behold the superfluous! They steal the works of the inventors and the treasures of the sages for themselves; "education" they call their theft-and everything turns to sickness and misfortune for them. Sun, Sep. 19th, 2004, 10:13 pm
Sigh... This was basically my summer, although I'm sure I started this before summer, which in turn kind of sums of some of, most of my life for the past while. So meh. I need no title. Lit up like first time expression of affections Magnificently placed gently in such high serenity Almost pure, perfectly, uncertain of such beauty Existance is inevitable maybe, not quite, sure In it's presents unjustly placed, deformities Depicting, only what the imagination can place Held back as such, but possibilities are endless Til it's presents is overcast overcasting silence Broken in an instant for an instance, shattered Ruptured in a moment of uncertainty Drenched in a shower of liquid sunshine Tapping at your shoulder like a bolt Lost in it all, lost in it's everything And in the flash of an eye separation sets in

This guy owns. Sun, Sep. 12th, 2004, 12:03 am 9/11
I had to write an essay on how America due to September 11. This is what I have and hopefully I don't get sent to guidance for it. >_< Three years have passed since the tragedy of September 11. Since it has happened it has altered the way we live our lives. Everything from Airport security to crossing the boarder has dramatically changed. The American people no longer feel safe going to work and, in general, living in America. And an undying feeling of revenge is in the heart of many. It has and forever will change America’s government and it’s many citizens. In the past three years many things have changed. Security has become better almost everywhere, yet people still feel unsafe. And for good reason. Shortly after 9/11 America declared war on Terrorism. Then declared war and invaded, not one, but two countries, Afghanistan and Iraq. Both useless wars which caused nothing but the death of innocent civilians. And both wars, without a doubt, created more terrorism. Many of which are willing to give their lives to take away the lives of more Americans and there is almost nothing anyone can do as long as we keep putting people in power who will allow this. Since this is an election year, terrorism is a big issue. Both candidates say they will do something about them but neither of them really say what they will do. Bush passes pointless laws which only take away more rights from innocent American citizens. And Kerry just offers empty promises. No real, effective solution is being made and it will only hurt America more. And in the next four years more situations like 9/11 will happen because people like Bush and Kerry will continue to create more terrorism instead of making effective decisions to stop the attacks on America and it’s people. The taste of revenge is filling the mouths of American people yet their stomachs are still empty. The people of America wondering why we haven’t caught Osama, etc. And why we’re still threatened by terrorism. They do all this wondering, as their government deceives them into killing more and more innocent people. And they believe every bit of it. For some reason the death of innocent people and the perpetuation of terrorism and anti-American feelings is what they want. All this because of September 11. The question “why?” is being asked. Why did it happen? And the only thing you hear is “they’re envious of the American way. They hate American freedom.” The American freedom to exploit their people. The freedom to kill their innocent citizens. The real issue isn’t September 11. No, the big picture is the American state of mind and their past actions. They have been pushing around and killing the people of the Middle East. A group of people can only be put through so much before they go off like a bomb. And that bomb went off on September 11 sending a strong clear message to the American people, although they couldn’t read it. So the question shouldn’t be “why?” But “who?” Who are the real terrorist.
