Disgustipated

There's this really great song "Disgustipated" by Tool. Go listen.

I'm disgusted with the world at large. What follows is evidence:

-- Woman in Queens robbed and then had her eyes and mouth glued shut by assailants.

-- Woman potentially flogged for naming a teddy bear Mohammed. Her class named the bear.

-- Woman raped, nay gang banged, for being in a car with men, now faces flogging and jail time.

-- 13-year old girl hangs herself when her MySpace boyfriend breaks up with her. Turns out another girl's mother posed as the boyfriend to teach the girl a lesson.

What the fuck is wrong with you people? I mean, really. What is wrong with you? This is not normal. This is not acceptable. The world is beyond going to pot. If we we're going to pot, people would be much nicer to each other.

I'm disgusted with you. As a race of all people. I don't care what color you are or what you believe in. Disgusted.

I finished a novel the other night seemingly about two vigilantes trying to clean up Florida's corruption. The gist of the conversation is 'if you aren't mad about something, you're passive and letting it happen. So get mad.'

I'm damn mad.
