oh where, oh where have my resources gone? oh where, can my resources be?

How should i respond to the over-consumption of natural resources?



I think i should respond pretty negatively, because these resources are what we rely on! They are what we use everyday. If we run out of those resources how are we going to be able to live? The replacements people keep talking about don't even cover half of what we use now. Even if it didn't affect me directly, i would still not look at this as some kind of a blessing. It means change. Change is great and all but what are we going to do for further generations? We messed up; now what are we going to do to make it better? Or are we going to leave the world like this. Because we didn't take care of what we had, we don't have it anymore. That's what we deserve, but do our children and their children's children deserve to pick up our mess?

who abused my rights?! show me the pig! ^^

How should i respond to Human Rights Abuses?

I respond very negatively to human right abuses because it's an unfare and unjust treatment of human beings. I think nobody in this world has even the littlest bit of right to tell another person they can't do something. If that person created you, you can bet they have a right! But if it's just another jerk off of the street, then i'm definately thinking no. People are not God. they just aren't and they can't even begin to think they can boss another person around, most of all take their rights! I'm not a huge fan of Human Rights because i belive but i definately am one of civility. It's hard to explain, but i think people should be able to do what's right without being told. i mean, you're not in kindergarten... it's time people realised, hey, i punched that person, i have to apologise. they should realise that without a teacher going "now be good children!" i think it would save the teacher a lot of trouble, it would certainly save us the head aches from the teacher's yelling.

I've got human rights! Yes i do! I've got Human Rights! How 'bout you?!

What are Human Rights to you?

Human Rights to me, is being free. Being free to choose, Being free to make my own opinions, Being free to experience life to the fullest. That's what i think Human Rights are, they are merely some of what God intended for us in this life. Only difference is it took more than 100 years to be done. That tells me, someone must have missed out on their rights. Someone must have died before they even got a chance to even experience really being free. I admit that I don't really see the point in having to write it down; everyone should be civil enough to know and do everything that's written down on those papers... or paper. Why are they suddenly a huge deal? because they're signed or stamped by imortant people? I love my rights, they're what makes me, me. But If that's what it takes for people to finally be recognized and to be given the respect they deserve, I don't see the Human Rights as a leader to freedom. I see them as humanities pride and shallowness, the only thing different is that it's written down.

I'm Communist! no, just kidding, definately Capitalist cause y'know that's the top...

How should I respond to exploitation of workers around the world?

I think i should and do respond negatively to workers being abused. I believe everyone has a right to work and when they work they should be in an environment that makes them feel safe and comfortable. I think nobody should be forced to work in harsh conditions that make them feel exploited or even worse, conditions where they ARE exploited. If it isn't in the declaration of Human Rights, it should be, because i feel working in a safe and comfortable is a very important Human Right.

Romeo in Rawanda! where's Juliet...?

Shake Hands With The Devil:





I found the movie a bit disturbing because i was exposed to something i have never seen before. It was very intimidating watching Romeo Dallaire brace the odds, and i couldn't help but stare. The man seemed absolutely insane! He was staying in a country that had a genocide going on, and he still managed to keep his calm! Well, at least until closer to the end where he began cutting himself but that's totally reasonable. I mean, he sees the people he is trying to save being killed everyday, i think you'd eventually grab the stake knife from your plate and take a chunk out of your body.



But i couldn't understand why he stayed. Afterall it wasn't his duty to stay; because all the troups had been ordered back a long time ago, in fact he was disobaying a direct order! He chose to stay back when he had been told directly to return home with his troups but he DIDN'T and that makes me go "wow, you're out of your mind" or, "if everyone took responsibility for their actions, i'm sure the world would be a WAY better place."
