Greetings Everyone,
I've been thinking about this situation about that guy from Duck Dynasty. Phil Robertson has no business calling anyone a swindlers or an adulterer because he is not a perfect person himself. Phil Robertson is not fit to pass judgment on any human being in this world. There are people who are straight that are swindlers and adulterers. Some (not all) people who are married go out and cheat on their spouses. There are some people like Phil Robertson who been around certain same kinds of other people all their lives that they don't understand the difference between right and wrong. In my opinion, Phil Robertson has not been around different kinds of people from all over the world, he has been around the same people all his life. There are a lot of people in this world that have the common sense not to say offensive things that can be heard by other people because they know what it could lead to. There are some Republicans out there who know not to say offensive things about people where it can be heard. Ignorance grows and passes from generation to generation. Some people can be offensive and insensitive so long in their lives they don't realize when they are offending other people. Phil Robertson is very close-minded and don't understand the philosophies, ideas, and opinions from different people of the world has changed over the years during his existence on earth. In reality, people come in different shapes, sizes, colors, and all of them came to earth with hearts beating of various emotions. Bigotry is unacceptable. For years, bigotry has not made any accomplishments in this world.If anyone believes in Phil Robertson's bigotry, they are just as ignorant and close minded as he is. There are some people in this country who are really racists and homophobic but they don't like to admit it because they don't to be labeled with ugly words such as a "racist" or a "bigot" because those words don't sound good. Now some people just love to label themselves as "GOD-fearing" and "Christians" because those labels are as sweet as honey on their tongue. But those same people who love to label themselves with those sweet words are not as GOD-fearing and Christian-like as they say they are. Those same people who label themselves as Christians can be the same people who will show hatred toward other people who are different from them in a heartbeat simply because they don't understand the people who are different. People who are GOD-fearing and Christian like are suppose to express compassion and respect for all people regardless of who they are. People who are gay, lesbian, or bisexual are normal regular people. They have the same body organs and they have the same red blood as straight people have.

Open Letter to Senator Jeff Sessions (R-AL) About Immigration
Dear Senator Jeff Sessions,
I notice that you've developed a large interest in the subject of immigration in the United States. However, there is something about you that concerns me regarding your views of immigrants in the US, Senator Sessions. During my upbringing years of my childhood my first lesson came from my first teachers of education, my parents, and that lesson was and still is: Never forget where I came from! The very first American citizens were Native Americans (and you and I both know the rule of discovery: whoever was the first to step on that land first and settle in it first was the first to discover it). The Europeans and people from several other countries who are the second to arrive came to America on the Mayflower Compact because they've grown tired of the strict rules in England were immigrants. Your fellow immigrant ancestors from the past, Senator Sessions, came to America looking for independence and opportunity. While you are entirely too busy talking about how the modern immigrants get into the United States of America, I'm trying to figure out how you and your ancestors, Senator Sessions, got into the United States of America. Did your ancestors get into this country like the other people who had to fill out papers first? Or did your ancestors just come to this country by ship and slowly, "take over and claimed the land as theirs"? Your ancestors, Senator Sessions, came to America to look for jobs and opportunity also just like today's immigrants. The immigrants from all over the world came to The United States of America to seek a better life. What would your ancestors from another country from the past say if they were standing in front of your face Senator? How would you tell your own ancestors from another country that they are the problem and they are taking American citizens' jobs? How would you tell your ancestors from another country from the past that they couldn't live in the "land of opportunity", The Wonderful Land of The United States of America? Senator Jeff Sessions, you forgot where you came from! You, Senator Sessions, have forgot that the fact that a long time ago, you and your ancestors use to be in the same position as the immigrants of today. Senator Sessions, you along with your ancestors who came to USA has lived to have numerous and unlimited opportunities, so let my immigrant brothers and sisters come to USA to have the same opportunities. To tell you the truth, Senator Sessions, immigrants bring several progressive and wonderful ideas to the United States of America that helps the country as well as the entire world.

The Root Of All Evil: The Destroyed Native American Mound in Alabama
Greetings Everyone,
When I learned that I have a Native American heritage, I wanted to do some research. I didn't know what a "mound" was so I did some searching and I came across some articles that the city of Oxford, Alabama destroyed a burial mound in order to build a Sam's Club there. I was curious about what was inside a burial mound. When I look at the pictures on Google I was in shock. There were skeletons of Native Americans from the past inside those mounds.
The small phrase "Money is the root of all evil" is worth over millions of sick,twisted and degrading examples and meanings. The moral teachings of the difference between what is right and what is wrong is tossed into the wind and thrown away like garbage. The fact that the mayor and city council of Oxford, Alabama decided to destroy a ancient Native American mound in order to build a Sam's Club is never ever going to be a subject in the past. This sick and treacherous decision will be in everyone's mind forever. I thought the state of Alabama loves to embrace the subject of history. My thoughts could be wrong. Maybe the truth is some of today's citizens of Alabama loves to embrace the history of their own people, the events of the Civil War, the Confederate Flag that some of the citizens of Alabama have embraced so much in the past and the present, the flag that some of the white citizens of Alabama hold in their front yards so proudly as they stretch out flowing with the wind, showing all its so-called glory, sticking its chest out and embracing it's ugly past. And how about those high and mighty women of slave owners who wear those huge dresses? The sun must have risen, shine, and set on their rich rear ends during their days of luxury, while my people were wearing rags to cover our nudity, and wearing scars, dirt and sweat that contributed from hard labor, abuse and rape. Some of the citizens of Alabama just love love love those old plantation homes that were built centuries ago and constant renovation is done over the years in order for it to stay the same way. And finally, how about those slave owners and Confederate Soldiers that the citizens of Alabama are constantly build monuments and memorials for? No one is better than anyone in the world. No one is no different that anybody else in the world. To even think that one race is better that another race is ignorant as well as arrogant.
For centuries, some Caucasian people (not all Caucasian people) have labeled anyone who is different from them as not human and as property (slavery), as indecent, as savages, as terrorist, even as a different kind of breed of an animal. For centuries, some Caucasians (not all Caucasian people) have made anybody who was different from them feel low in terms of self-esteem. For centuries, some Caucasian people (not all Caucasian people) made up stereotypes about anyone who was different from them. For centuries, did all these things simply because they didn't understand the cultures and traditions of anyone who was different, different in terms of religion and in terms of different languages.
Ladies and gentlemen as you read this blog entry, please keep in mind that I do love all people around the world, including Caucasian people and please understand that the paragraph that I just written is concerning Caucasians who don't like anyone who is different from them. I do believe that there are compassionate Caucasian people in the United States of America who see different kinds of people as individuals and care about who they are on the inside. I do believe that there are compassionate Caucasians in the United States of America who see past of what other people look like and only see what people are on the inside regarding personality. I do believe the fact that there are loving, kindhearted, caring and gentle Caucasians in the United States of America as well as around the world who are compassionate of different kinds of people and other things and issues. I hate racism and it is an ugly thing that should be a sin. I wish all people around the world would love the way GOD made all of them.
Whether it is realized or not, the mayor along with the city council of Oxford, Alabama are suppose to be role models, leaders to not only their citizens of Oxford but to the citizens of the United States of America as well as the entire world. The mayor along with the city council of Oxford, Alabama are even being watched by children and teenagers, who are students of elementary, middle, and high schools. Not only the mayor and the city council are leaders, but they are also teachers and role models, and the entire city of Oxford, Alabama taught a very bad lesson. The leaders of Oxford, Alabama has taught not only the adult citizens but also to children an ignorant statement: Only money is more important than humanity and morals. The city leaders of Oxford the adult and children who are citizens in the world another bad lesson: That only certain kinds of history are important. This hurts me because ignorance can be passed down from generation to generation. The truth is: All kinds of history is important. All displays and exhibits of past evidence are important because they all tell stories of how people lived and how the survived in the world. The mayor and city councils deprived the children from learning pieces of history that was proof of a Native American sacred civilizations really existed, civilizations that they read about in their social studies, geography and history books. How are we, the people of today, present and future are suppose to learn anything if people like the city leaders of Oxford, Alabama constantly take the past away? I'm afraid that people like the city leaders of Oxford, Alabama will keep on destroying and erasing pieces of the past until it gets to the point that we the people of the world will forget where we come from. Not only did the city leaders of Oxford, Alabama deprived all of us from learning about our Native American ancient civilization, but they have disrupted the final resting place of human beings. This year in Oxford, Alabama, the Native Americans who were buried in that ancient mound had their human rights taken away from them. These human beings are our ancestors, our great great great grandmothers and grandfathers, our aunts, our uncles, our cousins, our nieces and nephews, from a generation to another. This is the truth about the human race: All of us have Native American in our blood. Caucasians, Native Americans, African Americans, Asians, Hispanics, Latinos, Pacific Islanders and other races all around the world are all the same. We have the same blood, the same body parts, and we all breathe the same way. Like the Holocaust in Germany several years ago, destroying the Native American mound was "a crime against humanity".
