My first full-length angry rant (My apologies if offense is found)

Postby zoupzuop2 » Mon Apr 26, 2004 9:22 pm

N E 1 Hear about the Nicole violence case on Yahoo! News?<a href="http://http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&cid=519&ncid=519&e=5&u=/ap/20040426/ap_on_re_us/girl_violence_1">It's right here. </a>
This is terrible news.:sniffle: My heart goes out for the ones injured either physically or mentally. I'm truly miserable with the news. I'm also sort of mad.
All the article does is try to pin the violence on something. Y'know what? They may be right! BUT :rant: It's about time we stopped searching for a scapegoat for stupid things like this that CAN be stopped, that CAN be controlled. Violence is one of them!!! Blaming movies or video games, or even our pasts is going to get us nowhere.
I KNOW that we "young boys", as they say, are the ones who cause the violence. That it's always been US. That's right, just like they teach in history classes all over the world, it's the WHITE MALE'S fault. (Usually it's now reffered to as the "WHITE CHRISTIAN STRAIGHT OF-BRITISH-DESCENT MALE", but I hold nothing against anyone of british descent. I, in fact, find it a total insult that all they teach is how Britain was sooooooo evil, especially during the crusades (hint hint, possibly trying to keep God outta the picture?))
Are these media FOOLS trying to support the girls who beat up Nicole?? "Oh, they played "Tomb Raider" too much." "Oh, they just watch violent things sooo often."
Hey, another point: Sooooooo many feminists beg for total equality. Okay, so we'll let there be a female star in an action movie. BAM!! Instantly pins it to violence, right next to a slightly sexist comment. WTF <----(Flipper the dolphin)???
ALL THIS ARTICLE DOES IS POST A BUNCH OF HYPE THAT DESTROYS ITSELF ANYWAYS!!!! (YOU SHOULD'VE SEEN WHAT THEY DID TO POOR DR. ATKINS, DYING OF OBESITY MY TUSH! (But that's another rant.))

Okay, I'm done ranting. Please post your flames, I'll take them all into full account.

No offense to feminists, Britons, Caucasians, Males, Straights, Atkins Dieters, or any other form of majority or minority, however it may fall in society, in this post.
(Still ready to take flames.)

I think you're letting things get just a teeny bit out of hand here. I read the article, and yes it is tragic that it happened. But it's one thing to admit there is a problem with society, be it a lack of a female role model or a deeper lack of Christ, but it's another to go off on a raving and raging rant about blaming men and Britain and using acronyms for expletives we all knew you meant. What was the point of all that? Just to rant? Get a journal or a webblog for that; a forum isn't meant for that kind of explosive tirade. All it does is stir up trouble and get people thinking in a mob-mentality of sorts, wherein they stop listening to reason and start looking for something to blame.

Now with that being said, I see no other reason to keep this topic alive and I am closing it.
