Who and why? Don't worry I'm not going to harm anyone. I'm just curious if anyone has ever had as much hatred that they've felt that way. toward someone.

Why is it that whatever site I'm on online, no one can spell or use proper grammar? It's hard to read, and it makes people look stupid. If you passed the fifth grade, you should be able to handle this.

It is estimated that by the year 2050, we will need the equivalent of 3 planets to sustain the human race at its current level of consumption. 1/3 of the world's population lives under the poverty level and thousands of children are being born everyday into an abject state of poverty without adequate food, water, education, or healthcare. And the gap between rich and poor is growing ever wider. Should there be laws limiting human reproduction to prevent suffering and environmental destruction? If you think so, what laws would you implement?

It seems like people with three names wreak horrible havoc upon society:

John Wilkes Booth: Assassinated President.Lincoln
Lee Harvey Oswald: Assassinated President Kennedy
James Earl Ray: Assassinated Dr. King
Sarah Jane Moore: Attempted to assassinate President Ford
John Wayne Gacy: Mass murderer
Mark David Chapman: Assassinated John Lennon
William Jefferson Clinton: Got someone's dress dirty and lied about it
Osama bin Laden: Self explanatory
Sarah Jessica Parker: Sex and the City

The most terrible evils in society appear to be wrought by people with three names. Perhaps we need to have a two-name maximum, just to stop all this senseless evil.

When I was born my skin color was pink, within a few days, color turned to white, when very cold, color turns blue, when suburned color turns red, when sick, color turns yellow/grey, and when I die, I will turn blue. Who are white skinned people calling colored!! We are just one big rainbow. Do you agree? *smiles*

IF I CAN FIND TIME TO TYPE THIS, YOU CAN READ IT.

In general. I don't want noboby spittin statistics. I don't wanna hear that.

Are you pro or anti?
Do you think the system needs a change or needs to be gone for good.


Personally I don't have anything against it. I think people have an extreme biase(soory if the spelling is off) against poor people. The reality is that we are a capitalist society. The way I see it(and I don't know if this is right), is that for very person with a six figure salary, there is just gonna have to be a person that is below the poverty line. If everyone all of a suden was successful and went to school, salaries would have to drop to adjust to this(maybe), and everyone would be poorer(maybe we need this so that people can learn to stop critiscising others). I think that the program is setting people up for failure, instead of trying to help the person get on their feet. An preventing them(and their children too) from falling into the same pit.

Not many modern buildings seem to have any balance or beauty.

why is there no beauty anymore?

people have lost the art of it and can only create functional things?
