Grow Up!

Grow Up!

It’s time to grow up America. It’s time to put all this silly shit to the side and start doing what we were hired to do. What we need to do… What we should do… It doesn’t matter about your color, race, ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, religious beliefs, religious affiliations, parentage, lineage, country of origin, or any of the other lame-ass excuses we’ve been using to draw everyone’s attention and to excuse our apathy. Do the job you are paid to perform or, move over and let someone else who is willing to work, have that job. You knew what the job requirements were when you accepted that job. You knew at some point you would encounter someone that you didn’t like, or trust, or who didn’t share your faith. You knew that when you accepted the job. As I see it you have two choices… Do the job, or leave it for someone that will…

I hate going to meeting, but it’s what I do. I conduct and attend meetings. I can just imagine telling my boss that my personal ethics forbids me going to meetings. Instead of writing this I would be filing for Unemployment Benefits…

Muslim Flight Attendants – Did you honestly think that an airline that serves alcohol on their flights would excuse you from serving those drinks because you’re Muslim? What do people do on these long flights? They drink, don’t they? It relaxes them. It helps them sleep. It’s ok princess, you can take the paycheck and not do your job… It’s ok because your Muslim. Why did you take that job knowing you would be asked to serve alcohol? You took that job under false pretenses… didn’t you. You knew this would eventually be an issue… but did it knowingly and willingly. That’s fraud… Your faith advocates the murder of Infidels… Should we hide the knives and forks from you, as well? Not murdering the infidel goes against Allah and your holy scriptures and teachings…

Mr. High-Roller Fast Food Worker… Did it enter you mind when you took that job at Arby’s that Police Offices eat there? And not only Police but FBI, CIA, NSA, Sheriffs, Highway Patrol Troopers, Military, and all other manner of uniformed and plain clothes law enforcement people eat there. Even White people and people of every other color eat there. I guess it’s OK in your case to be selective and serve only those people that you deem worthy of your exceptional customer skills. When did you decide that these Police Officers did not deserve your special consideration and exceptional customer service? I’ll just bet there is a waiting list for that job. I’ll bet there is some Military Veteran that would love that job… Or some High School Junior that needs to pay for books… Maybe a single parent that needs to support his or her family… I’ll be they wouldn’t let anything stop them from serving the Police.

Miss County Clerk… Sweetie, you work for the county. You cannot refuse service to anyone. Don’t let the shit they’re feeding at church confuse the issue. You are not the judge… You are not the judge. You don’t get to decide who can have a license if they have all the proper background paperwork. You don’t have the right to judge. You claim that your Christian Faith, your faith in Jesus forbids you from serving these people. It is against your Christian Faith… Right? Did Jesus minister only to the most wealthy, the priests, the Kings and Queens, or He minister to the poor and destitute sinners? Doesn’t the Bible, your Holy Book, not say… Judge not lest you be judged… or does it leave that all up to you? Well? Aren’t you judging these people when YOU refuse them service? Welcome to Cafeteria Christianity… Take what fit your personal biases and leave the rest… Didn’t Jesus say… “Love your neighbor as you love yourself…” Or was that only for the Christian Brethren?

Mr. Christian baker… Why would you refuse to make a wedding cake for a couple being married? Aren’t they entitled to celebrate this union? A union that was recently and finally recognized as lawful – legal in the eyes of the Federal Government. Sure it’s your business and you are entitled to do whatever you want with it as long as it’s legal. You can make cakes in the shape of anatomical genital parts for birthdays and bachelor parties, but not for gay weddings… Do you sell to Jews, Muslims, Hindu’s, Rasta’s, Agnostics, and Atheists? Why, stop with the gay community? Are they that special or is their sin bigger than everyone else’s? Aren’t these others, sinners as well? Oh, I see… You’re a Christians ONLY bakery… I’ll be looking for the warning sign… Warning… Christians Only! You are discriminating against the gay community… Is that truly Christian?

Black Panthers… your message of white hatred worked so well the first time, you’ve brought it back with a vengeance for round two… What happened to that first successful try? Well, I remember the FBI arresting, prosecuting, and incarcerated the leaders for sedition, treason, inciting to riot, and for plotting and advocating murder. I think some of them are still in prison…
Start killing white people… Start killing cops… Just the White cops or the Black, Chinese, Japanese, Indian, American Indian, Muslim, and on, and on… Don’t you see that problem you claim is holding you back is the very reason you’re ready to murder people? It called Racism… Oh no… you can’t be racist, you’re Black… Guess what buckwheat… It’s all the same game. The reason racism continues to grow is because you refuse to let it die. Your leaders keep it alive minute to minute. It’s all we hear from them. It’s what you want to hear… Good… Be hateful. Be angry. Be a special kind of stupid. Slavery started several thousand years ago. It’s not new. You’re not special. In fact the Middle East and parts of Asia are still dealing with slavery. Racism in America could have ended in 1866, 1875, 1964, and again in 1991. And it’s still going strong… growing every day. Maybe we need another Civil Rights Act for the new millennium.

The smartest move you’ve made so far was warning the Texas Police that you’ll be sneaking up on them in the dark to kill them. What a wonderful way to escalate this violence to the next level. You just started a shit-storm of epic proportions. Now the next time some Black man in a black barrette walks up to a policeman – he will be treated as the threat you promised he would be regardless of his affiliations or beliefs. He’s now a criminal, just like you. I’d start recruiting some suicide bombers if I were you…

Grow Up America. If you have a job, do your job. If you don’t like your job, or if your job causes you problems with your beliefs, or morals, or ethics, quit and go somewhere else. What gives you the idea that your employer should conform to you? Yes, why should the person that pays you to perform a specific function conform to your whims? Standing firm on your principles is not the correct response.

Now… get back to work and stop all this foolish shit or type up your resignation and get started on that resume’.

Lead, Follow, or Move out of the way…
