I mean I knew United States was starting to look more and more like a fascist nation but this one is like a big wake up call for all United States citizens.

i'm just writing in here to remind anyone who reads my livejournal that early voting has started, you don't have to wait until Nov 2 to vote. I recommend going early and getting it out of the way. Just please don't forget to vote this is an important election year. Though I do prefer if anyone does listen to me and votes that they should vote for Kerry and not Bush...

Just saw an article about 3 japanese men who were kidnapped in Iraq...I'm reallly hoping someone is able to rescue those men before they are burned alive. :( I hate terrorists. I just don't understand how someone could do something so cruel to a person who did nothing wrong to you. Those Japanese men they kidnapped weren't even soliders. 2 were aid workers and the other is a photojournalist. I can't help but feel like I want to get even with these terrorist groups. :(

maybe I just don't understand the what they are fighting for, however it does not help their cause when they car bomb resturants, kidnap innocent civilians, and wreck havock on a city. Martin Luther King JR accomplished a lot without resorting to kidnapping, car bombings, and threats of murder. Maybe if they had some good speech writers in their organizations and a great public speaker they could gain support for their cause...I realize, however, our countries are different..but I don't think they'll be stoned to death if they do sit ins or peaceful marches.

If I had seen these groups try peaceful methods of gaining their objectives I'd probably support them, but I haven't seen that instead they go out and murder. Then they are shocked that no one listens to them or wants to do what they want. No one even wants to compromise with murders.

Anyway, reading that article in yahoo news..kind of made me wonder why I stress out so much over frivolous things when there is so much more happening in the world and real people are suffering. :( I suspect tomorrow I'll be back to worrying about myself and my own problems, however I think it's good to take time out each day and acknowledge there are bigger problems in the world, other than how I'm going to pay for my next credit card payments.
