I realize this may cost me some friends, but I have something to say, folks, and I’m GOING to say it! I am fed up and pissed off to the point that simply observing in silence isn’t cutting it for me anymore. I’ve never really been big on New Year’s Resolutions, but if I had to choose one this year it would be to stop being afraid to speak my mind simply because some people don’t want to hear it. So here goes! After all, as a published author and a heavy blogger, I should know that no one’s going to agree with everything anyway. So no more keeping some of my thoughts and opinions either to myself or in private messages amongst my closest friends. I have just as much right to express myself as the next person so long as I’m not threatening anyone. Although I would never want to knowingly and intentionally offend anyone, I would rather lose friends by being honest than obtain them by not being honest or feeling like I have to hold back on some things.

I was never afraid to admit that if there is a God I feel He’s a real jerk for allowing some things to happen to others as well as to myself, so why should I be afraid to say I’m sick of this be-nice-to-Muslims trip going on? “Get along with them” is the message I see everywhere these days. “Be a friend to them.”

But how??? How do you be “friends” with those who do NOT want to get along with anyone? They hate Jews, gays, blacks, and atheists, and they treat women and children like dirt. How do you be “friends” with that? How do you reason with or buddy up to someone who, instead of respecting your beliefs and simply agreeing to disagree, wants to kill you if you don’t tell them what they want to hear and what THEY believe? I’m not saying every single one of them is like this but an alarming number of them sure seem to be and the only ones I feel bad for are the women and children. Girls are being shot in the face for writing in their blogs that they think education is important. Women are being killed in their family’s “honor” for trying to escape their abusive husbands. How effed up is that?! This isn’t something that only happens occasionally, folks, so when I see video after video of them burning the American flag and saying how much they hate us and want to kill us, tell me… how do you befriend that?!?!

You want to unfriend or hate me – fine. But don’t expect to make it MY problem if YOU choose to read this and YOU have a problem with or disagree with what I have said. I’m willing to be friends with anyone – ANYONE – who can treat me with the same respect and kindness I treat them with, but here’s where I get fed up and draw the line! I’m sick of hearing how we should have a bleeding heart for those who want to kill us simply for being who we are. Well, those flag-burning monsters that hate me so much for daring to disagree with some of their ways can kiss my tight white American ass! When they can accept me as I am, then I’ll consider being buddies, but not until then.
