Am I on everyone's ignore list?
Pony, do you read my posts?
You are telling everyone to grow up, but seriously take a look at the man in the mirror.
Look, you found something you want to put your all in, I'm sorry everyone isn't throwing themselves at the Red campagin's feet.
You are being very one-sided, which isn't like you.
Calling people too young to understand what is going on is ludricrous.
I work with One, I work with Red, and I'm sorry I'm not all gung ho about this.
That's my fault though.
I work with charities, that forget about ... and I'm sorry, I really tried not to talk about this earlier ... they forget about people like me when I was growing up.
I'm glad people are helping people they never met, but seriously, do you think there is a reason why kid's idols are drug dealers?
Do you think there is a reason why 'no kid left behind' is funny on the Daily Show?
Because it is not your town?
Shit fucking sucks in the hood. Kids look up to the dealer with a nice car because of dealing, kids look up to pimps because of money, and it sounds absurd BECAUSE IT FUCKING IS!
I am on the ground level with this, and I've already typed about everything I do not feel rite about.
I understand how you are perturbed about people not jumping up for joy about this, but to be frank (though I'm Jerome), I really don't know where you are coming from.
There were what? 5 shootings in schools in America this past ... WEEK?
Do you know what's weak?
The fact that kids in Pittsburgh get left for dead OFF-SCHOOL and you don't hear about it.
You know what's weak?
The fact that kids who want to learn biology, and algebra have to go thru 5 metal detectors just to get to class.
Shit's wizzeak!?
Because, and I'm really going to be frank (though my name is still Jerome), amish kids, and colorado middle america kids can get shot the fuck up ... and no fucking iota of attention is paid to kids who get got, rite in front of their houses, rite in front of their mothers, rite in front of the basketball courts they played at since they were little.
But since it didn't happen in fucking middle-America it's not news.
There is a g-ddamn reason why the numbers of CHILDREN are dead in grade schools, and high school and it has nothing to do with Columbine.
It has to do with kids who want to go to accounting, but can't account for the bullet wounds that are in their chest for being at the wrong place at the wrong time.
These fucking CNN stories make me fucking sick.
I'm sorry some nut came out and went nuts, however, shit is nothing new to people who actually live in a place that is not on the news because if it doesn't happen on school ground's .... IT DOES NOT ACTUALLY HAPPEN!
I think I lost myself, but to recap, I work with One, and subsequently with Red which is why I thought about timelining this earlier.
And I'll still work with them, because the sadddest fucking thing is kids who have nothing, barely a pot to piss in before the crackhead mother , and beat your ass father (if they are lucky) takes any chance of that kid having any kind of successful life ...
...

They'd rather some kid a world away get the treatment that they would never get in their own country.
