Bracelets (Ms. California, terrorists, "green-ness")

Ms. California first, because that's the place that she should have gotten. She exercised her freedom of speech (very diplomatically, might I add), and what happened? She got punished. She was given second place FOR HER OPINION.

My opinion is that marriage is a union between a man and a woman. It is a sacred union and gay marriage is not. Now, don't get me wrong. I don't hate gay people. I disagree with gay rights. That's all.

Now for "torturing" terrorists.

Okay. First of all, these are terrorists. They want to bring us down. We have gained valuable information from these "harsh methods". And what are we SUPPOSED to do? Just give them a friendship bracelet and send them on their merry way?

I don't think so.

And finally, Earth Day. Okay. I am totally against human carelessness and greed. But I think global warming is overrated. I mean, almost forty years ago, they were predicting an ice age and that 75-80% of animal species would be extinct by now. Um, no.

Also, does this seem weird? Forty years ago, ice age. Now, global warming. What is UP with that?

I'm not saying that we aren't careless and greedy. I'm saying that some enviro-fanatics believe that the human race is, like, this horrible THING that keeps destroying our Earth. That's really extreme. So let's take care of our Earth, but not forget--humans are the most valuable things (which is why we need to take care of our home). I think that global warming is blown way out of proportion. Plus, overpopulation is a myth. Just a note.

So, we have:

1) A girl who loses a contest because she voiced her opinion

2) People who want to protect the Earth, though some of them think that humans are horrible creatures destroying our planet that need to be taken down and put in check

3) And we now cannot treat terrorists like terrorists. Now, we are "buddies"

Wonderful. Let's all be friends: you, me, Ms. California, Obama, and the terrorists. Uh-huh. See how that goes.

And we also have:

1)Terrorists walking away with friendship bracelets

2)A rightful winner walking away with a second-place bracelet

3) People who want to exterminate mankind (okay, not really) walking away with green bracelets.

And listen. I'm totally against human carelessness, like I said before. But forty years ago, like I said before, they were predicting that an ice age and the extinction of 80% of animal species would have happened by now. Well, I don't know what you're seeing, but... not happening.

I say we should stop thinking about and predicting and planning and focusing on the end of the world, for two reasons.

1) The world will end sometime anyway

2) We should stop focusing on when we're going to DIE and more on how we LIVE.

And it starts with us: the future. Today.
