Affirmative Reaction

Minorities. That poor group of people who seem to get no attention from the fascist white rich that rule our country. Those unsatisfied souls who long to be heard only to better their race, religion, or sexual choice. Aww, poor babies….

Which is what they are: Babies. Is it just me, or is it that the minorities want only to deplete the country of its pride? They insist on being called names such as “African-American” or “Spanish–American” instead of just either an American, or what they are, Black or Spanish.

Has it ever occurred to them that in the wide scope of the world, nobody really cares about that? The more that they point it out, the more cumbersome they become, as well.

For instance, this episode resembles that of someone with too much fame. They only want bottled water, their grapes must be sheathed of the stems, and if their room isn’t perfect for their arrival, they’ll be ‘ell to pay.

Welcome to the minority point of view. They want to be called a certain something, treated a certain way. They think they’re more deserving of such treatment because they don’t like being ‘brought down by The Man’. Because they were born, of their own choice, apparently, a little different from the cliché white American male. Give me a break, please.

Yeah, that’s right ladies; I’m referring to you too. Women, gays, blacks, Mexicans, Chinese, animal rights even….all fall within the ‘gimme, gimme’ society standards that are set as being ‘normal' today. ‘It maketh me sad’.

The arguments are amusing too. They’re not smart, so they need affirmative action. They don’t like being discriminated against, so they want to be called ‘African’ Americans [or otherwise]. They are too lazy to work, so they deserve special welfare privileges. They want to be grouped with a normal married couple, but they also want to be respected for how they believe. They don’t want to make a big deal out of their sex, but they want to be EQUAL Equal equal on all levels. Geezy pete.

So instead of working, learning, loving, thinking, and living within their own rights, they like to push their beliefs on others who really, to tell the complete truth, don’t give a flying circus about what they think. I’m a white young teenage middle-class publicly schooled catholic girl with a military background from my father and my mother was a stay at home mom. I don’t care if your life was hard because you’re gay. I don’t care if you think your opportunities were stubbed because you’re black. I REALLY don’t care.

The only reason I can see you having any way of complaining is if you don’t do something about it. Doing something about it would include learning, studying, being the best you can be, not starting another ‘cry me a river’ organization in order to overstep your rights as a United States citizen [which, by the way, you should Thank God you are in the first place.]

The only reason someone in a minority can be held back is because they hold themselves back. The more they separate themselves from the majority, the worse off they are. I always thought two heads are better then one, but apparently, if one scalp is black and one is white, there must be a shouting match on who’s to rule before any progress is made.

This doesn’t apply to all of the people of a particular minority. There are many people who have followed a path, known their goals, and succeeded without a complaint. Those are the people to which I say ‘Thank You’. Those are the people that the rest should look at and say ‘I want to be like them’.

Unfortunately, they are the ones who are said to be too much like the stereotypical successful American. They are often times described as greedy and self-sacrificing. Yes, yes they are. What’s wrong with that? What’s wrong with working for your goals? Not all people in the majority hate the minorities, you know. As long as they don’t whine and complain, becoming tolerable responsible individuals, then they are amongst the majority of successful uncomplaining individuals. Race, sex, or not.

This goes unseen, though, behind a curtain of deceit. Not only that, but the fact that those who retch about unfair lives and discrimination often forget that they themselves are not only discriminating against their race, but they are creating reverse discrimination versus that majority they hate. They are falling victim to that vice which they loathe. Discrimination’s a real piece of work, ain’t it?

The United States is about individuality, yes, but it’s also about teamwork. Lots of teamwork. It’s built upon its people, and if its people won’t stand together, then what is this country to stand on?

So I say to you, my fellow Americans, stand together. Let us not, from anyone, separate because of the fault lines placed there only by personal prejudices and a thought of deservedness because of things we cannot control. Allow us to live in a world where the NCAA and NAACP don’t exist. Where people don’t take advantage of the color of their skin or their sexual preference in order to rape the country of true patriotism.

If you don’t agree with me, you can always start the SCFS [‘Stop Cait From Speaking’] organization.

God Bless America.
