I don't like to be political. I don't care what our government is doing wrong. I just know that out current government's regime should end soon, but that't not what I'm going to write about. I'm going to write about a little website I found. The name slips my mind, but it was a website dedicated to White Power. Shayn and I read read over the site, and have agreed these people are the most ignorant people on Earth. Down with blacks, Jews, everyone that isn't white. What's their reasoning? They have none. And if you ask me, they just tell you that the Jews have brainwashed you and thats you'll never understand. They believe Hitler was damn near God, and that the Holocaust is a hoax. How are the pictures, the ash, the shose, the cyanide, the survivors not real? Well it's those silly Jews of course! See, they starved themselves and some Germans so it would look real. And the gas chambers were fake. How the hell is anyone so ignorant? When I read some of their poetry and such, it honestly made me want to find them and put one in their heads. I mean...what's going on in their heads? Obviously they were tortured or grew up in the South. One last thing. Why are random Arabs who are American citizens being watched by our government, but not Timothy McVeigh wanna-bes. It doesn't matter, as there's nothing we can do. If they are ever caught, I hope they are forced to watch BET and Bar Mitzvah videos till they die.

A Bundle of Sticks
In this day and age, homosexuality is a crime, yet homophobia is a god-given right. The Reverend Fred Phelps claims that the term "fag" comes from the bible. But what dear Fred is referring to in the bible is not the word "fag", but some underlying metaphor in the bible. Freddy claims that the word "faggot" means, "a bundle of sticks used for fuel", and sites www.dictionary.com as his source. However, in the entry for "faggot", there is no mention of the word "fuel", as a synonym or in the definition itself. Upon further investigation, I found mention of use for fuel in the entry for "fagot", but fagot isnt defined as Phelpss conveniently abridged version. Along with use for fuel, fagots were also used for "raising batteries, filling ditches, or other purposes in fortification". What difference does the word "fuel" make? A big difference. Our pal Fred says that the "[fag] is an excellent metaphor to describe sodomites because they fuel God's wrath, they burn in lust, and they will burn in hell." Well Fred, your "excellent metaphor" is a load of crap. The term "fag" is offensive. It did not pertain to homosexuals upon its origination, nor can one defend its use for slang as a metaphor. Today, kids use the word "fag" on a daily basis. It can mean anything from an idiot, to a jerk, to a geek. No matter what meaning it has today, the negative connotation comes from its use as a reference to homosexuals. The problem is, calling someone a "fag" can have far-reaching effects. Whether youre joking or serious, the word "fag" or "faggot" should not come into a conversation unless one is referring to its literal meaning of twigs.
