Role Models.


I'm glad I don't have a daughter!! God knew that I wasn't going to be able to handle a girl. Today's pop culture is just driving young girls be sluts. Look at the role models they have. Kim Kardashian became famous off a sex tape? Nikki Minaj acts like a huge slut and attempts to rap about it. Farrah Abraham became famous by getting pregnant at a young age, and then agreeing to a sex tape. This is all it takes to be famous? The idea that being a slut, or doing porn, can lead to a better career later on as a legitimate actress. This is not what we should be teaching kids.

Even little girls clothes nowadays are a pedophiles dream. Why do we put glitter and words across the ass? Let’s make the shiniest part of her body the one part you suppose to stay away from. If it works on fish, why would it not work on grown men? We're not that much smarter.

Now, don't get me wrong. I'm not a prude. In fact I’m a little on the perverted side. I enjoy a nice slutty girl, but an AGE APPROPRIATE slutty girl. What I don't like, are underage sluts. I'm not an pedophile. I don't want little girls dressed up like women I would see at a bar. Society is trying to force the slut out at much too early an age. I believe that the inner slut should be allowed to mature naturally over time. To blossom, and then present itself when the time is right, like a fine wine.

Although my boys aren't going to have it any better. Who's going to be their role model? Justin Beiber? Have you heard the bullshit in his songs? I want to party like 3012. What does that mean? Are we still a democracy at that point, or have we hit fucking Thunderdome yet? We're going to party like the entire city is run on pig shit and Tina Turner lives up in a metal tree house? You're lyrics are stupid!! This is the kid that peed in a mop bucket and sprayed a picture of Bill Clinton with bug spray and thought that was rebellious. Want to be a rebel, try dodging the Draft, or protesting something and getting arrested for it. Some shit your grandparents did. Peeing in a bucket doesn't make you a rebel, just unhygienic.

And who could possible hate Bill Clinton. He was one of the coolest presidents we had.

It's a good thing my son likes Guns and Roses. Even if Axel is about to have his fat Elvis dead-on-a-toilet-seat moment at any time now, that's still better than Beiber.

LA riots or My thoughts on the Zimmerman Trial


So this weekend we had the decision from the Trayvon Martin case, and people have been going ape shit over it. Most people seem to be missing the point of why we should truly be outraged by Zimmerman being found innocent. People have turned this into a right to bear arms issue. A civil rights issue. People being profiled issue. Here what I find the most disturbing.

Zimmerman was told by the 911 caller not to follow Trayvon. It's caught on tape to leave him alone. Zimmerman didn't. He kept pushing. He walked up and started talking to Trayvon, asking questions, making the issue worse. Why? Zimmerman wanted to be a hero. You can hear him on the 911 call. He wants to save the day, to "Not let them get away with this". Zimmerman was looking for a fight.

Now, I'm all for gun rights, and defending yourself. I'm from Texas. I have guns. I shoot animals and eat them. I believe if someone is breaking into your house, you pull out a 12 gauge and start blasting. Zimmerman wasn't at home though. He was out on the street. And he started the conversation that led to the argument. So it wasn't self-defense. He provoked it. And he got away with it.

As a father to two Latino boys, this makes me wonder. Does this mean that I'm going to have to teach my kids to respect the police, or any white man pretending to be the police? I know Zimmerman is half Peruvian, but clearly he didn't inherent the half that wouldn't stop a young black kid on the side of the road and question him. Call it racist if you want, but most minorities do tend to stick together, especially in a rich white neighborhood. I'm the whitest Latino you could meet, but I still won't assume a minority is a thief. Now, if I see you steal something, then I call the cops, but I won't just assume. It's amazing how people wanted Zimmerman to be innocent until proven guilty, but in his mind, Trayvon wasn't. Congratulations Zimmerman, you singlehandedly widened the gap between whites and non- whites. Hope you feel like a hero now.

Also, everyone in L.A that rioted should feel as bad as Zimmerman. The last thing we needed was looting in the name of Trayvon. You ruined anything good that could come from this. You think the white people aren't saying "That's what those wetbacks and niggers do when they don't get their way, they steal shit." I hope your free flatscreen was worth it. You want people to treat you different, yet you perpetuated the same stereotypes you’re fighting against. You'll never learn.
