Well, at least they’ve got a sense of humor. (: Wow, I’m getting lazy with this whole blogging thing, huh?
I’m going to start this off by paying tribute to everyone who has died this month. RIP passengers and crew of Air France flight 447, Ed McMahon, Michael Jackson, Farrah Fawcett, everyone who died in bomb blasts in Iraq and Afghanistan, in the “revolt” in Iran, and everyone else who has died anywhere in the world, including those who die of starvation everyday in underdeveloped countries or due to violence because of governments. Oh, and Billy Mays just died. He did the oxyclean commercials. Also, RIP KK, you will be missed. She was a girl from my area who died in a car crash last week. Actually, there’s been at least 10 deaths due to car crashes in my area just this month. Wow. Bad month.
The President of Hondouras has been detained and sent to Costa Rica. President Jose Manuel Zelaya arrived there after a military coup. Because you know, there aren’t enough of those going on in the world right now, right? This happened right after he vowed to go through with a referandum the Supreme Court ruled illegal. Apparently, even though there were military guards walking around, there was no unrest in the country. Let’s see how long that lasts. Apparently the military ruled the country until the 80′s, then the democracy came about. And now it’s going back. It always does. So yes, I agree with you Mr. President, this is an attack on democracy.
Annoyance with the government of Iran right now. They turned around and blamed us for the death of Neda. According to them, the CIA or some other government group murdered her, and the Basij did not. Lying wankers. The Ayatollah is also telling the people on either side to “calm down.” You’re kidding me, right? YOU ordered the military and police to attack and kill your own people and now this? SHOVE IT.
The Middle East aren’t the only countries opposing Islamic terror. Somalia, the country best known for it’s pirates that hijacked several boats in the area, is also fighting off Islamic terrorism. The US has sent ammo and weapons. Mogadishu all over again, eh? Sorry, Black Hawk Down, you know.
French President Sarkozy tried to outlaw the hijab. Honestly, I don’t know why, but it’s his thing. I don’t think it should be outlawed because what if it’s something they wear for their religion and they feel like they’re betraying it? I mean is that really a stretch? But I get it, with women in Iran standing forward, I get trying to get the women to be free, but it’s their choice.
Oh, apparently the economy is so screwed up that we are trying to get China to buy our debt. Really? “Hey, you there. Come buy our debt. We won’t kill you. Kay, thanks.” That’ll go over well. They love us that much, you know. Speaking of the economy, in India the economy is affecting marriage choices. Odd, isn’t it.
Wimbledon news! Now, I’m not a big tennis fan but I decided to take a break from CNN because that boring Your Money show was on (remember, I’m 15. I don’t care. (:) and now I’m watching Serena Williams totally owning. Andy Roddick won yesterday, and Roger Federer I believe won his match this morning. At least he was winning by quite a bit when I was watching. Venus Williams won yesterday as well. For a whole list, visit the Wimbledon website. Serena just won, by the way. (:
Back to the world, American troops are pulling out of Iraq soon and with the escalated violence, I’m gonna say it’s not going to be good. Now, don’t get me wrong, I think the war in Iraq was/is unethical and completely uncalled for, but also being a human rights activist, I think we should do something to help the people. I’m a horribly conflicted person, but that’s just how it is. What do you think? Do you think America is making a horrible mistake? Or do you think that it’s good we aren’t risking the lives of America’s youth on a war that is UNETHICAL and we shouldn’t even be involved in? Oh, and big surprise, Iran is interfering in Iraq. Is there anything that freaking government hasn’t completely screwed up?
Gay rights rallies in New York have really made me happy. No, I am not gay, but having a lot of friends who are bisexual, gays and lesbians I’m glad that New York might become the 7th state to legalize it. I mean, in all honesty, even if it goes against your religion, it is NOT you’re right to control what people do. I don’t think the government should interfere and control what people do. It’s not their say. That’s how you get dictatorships or revolts like, big shock, IRAN, or Honduras. I’m gonna get my head ripped off for this next one, but it’s like abortion. Now, before I go into this, I do not like abortion. Quite frankly the only time I support it is when someone gets raped. But even then, there’s adoption. Still. However, I do not think the government should take away that right. So no, do not overturn Roe v Wade. It’s your decision, not the government’s.
Bon Jovi is my hero, he posted a song on YouTube for the people of Iran in Farsi and English. Yes, it’s Stand By Me (:
So I’d really like to know your comments on these things. Where do you stand on the situation in Iran? What about Iraq, Honduras, and Somalia? And the economy, what about it? And of course, you’re position on abortion and gay rights.
Cheers!

That was a bit much. Still, Clinton needs to go bitch slap Kim Jong. And the Ayatollah and Ahmedinijad. Wankers. She’s healing well, by the way.
RIP.
