 I haven't posted for ages because I can't be bothered but I really really need to rant.




You know what?  The Boston Bombings were definately tragic and it's sad that 3 people have died and heaps are injured. But did you know that today the US bombed an Afghan wedding killing 30 people and injured more than 70 people. They were all just innocent people. But do you hear the President apologising for that? No. A car bombing in the Middle East killed 15 people today. No RIP's for them? I am just so sick of the media only focusing on Americans and Europeans. I am so sick of people posting about events just because everyone else is, and feeling sad about something they barely understand. I am so sick of people assuming that some people's lives are more valuable than others. I am so sick of the blatent racismm and the blind nationalism. It's kind of funny isn't it how those three lives are more important than everyone elses? All crimes against humans are crimes against humanity as a whole.
We should not be drawing distinctions between the importance of one life and another because of their colour of their skin or the country they live in. If you want to support the victims, go for it. They'll get plenty of help since the media can use them for their own gain, so I'll be spending my time trying to bring some things to light.

Well, the media is always biased. They tell a lot of lies, point fingers a lot and ignore the real issues in society. And that is why I don't appreciate the media. Not because I want to be ignorant, but I never get the entire story. No matter how many times they say, "Full coverage" or whatever bullcrap.
