Ok, this is going to be a two part post, because there’s two things I’m going to talk about. First, I just had a visit from a very nice lady from the humane society. Apparently one of our jerk off neighbors complained about excessive barking from our dogs. While she was here, she heard nothing. I explained to her that the reason Missy’s been barking is because there’s a neighbor who house sits a dog once in a while and she sees that dog through the fence and barks. I also told her I’d do my best to stop it from happening. She was very nice, and when I asked her who complained, she couldn’t tell me. She told me I could call the humane society and ask and they could look it up, which I did.
So I call and talk to another nice lady there and she looks it up. They didn’t leave a name or any contact info. She marked it as no more warnings to us after I explained to her what was going on, and said if those people want to complain again they’re going to have to come forward and identify themselves.
Now, here’s why I’m pissed. If you have a problem with a neighbor like this, you don’t file a god damn complaint, you come and knock on the door and politely try to discuss the problem with them and work out a solution. That’s the nice thing to do. Filing an anonymous complaint and hiding behind a phone call because you don’t have the balls to actually talk to your neighbor is just cowardly. I really want toi know who the hell it was that complained, just for my own curiosity. We’re going to start locking Missy in the garage at night just to make sure she’s not barking while we’re asleep or something, but our dogs are generally quiet and there really isn’t any excessive barking problem at all. It’s just someone who decided to be an ass an complain that has the problem. So a big middle finger to them. Next time have the freakin’ balls to come talk to me about it. Jerks!
Anyway, on to the next thing…
I’m sick of idiotic religious people bitching about everything they don’t approve of. This gay marriage thing in California is a prime example. Another example are those idiot muslim cab drivers who won’t take fares with alcohol or dogs. All these idiots seem to think that just because they or their religion doesn’t approve of something, that suddenly everyone else in the entire world has to conform to their beliefs. When someone does give them the smackdown over acting all jerky, they start whining about religious freedom and how they’re being persecuted and blah blah blah…
You know what? I don’t give two squirts of crap about your religions or your beliefs. You live in a free society here in America, and because of that you can believe in whatever fairy tales you want. HOWEVER, you absolutely do not have the right to impose your beliefs on anyone else. If you don’t like something, keep it to yourself and realize that we all live here together and we all have our own beliefs about life and how to live it. No one’s forcing you idiots to turn gay and get married, nor does gay people getting married affect you in any way other than annoying you, which I’m personally happy to see anyway. Muslims think everyone has to fall in lock step with all their bullshit too, but that’s not the case. They chose to live in a free society and to follow that moronic religion. If a free society isn’t compatible with your religion, then leave and go live in some crap hole with the rest of the people who think like you.
I’m just sick to death of everyone trying to impose their beliefs on everyone else. People are individuals. All the religious nuts like to say that god gave us free will. Ok, the gays are exercising their free will to get married to the person they love, just like everyone else in the world does. How exactly is that a bad thing? Oh, because some two thousand year old books written by people who would have thought a cigarette lighter was some miraculous thing say it is. Right…
There’s always been this absolute denial by religious people that gays are simply born that way as well. Sure some choose to be gay or bisexual, but the large majority of gay people are simply born that way. Asking them to turn straight would be like asking you to turn gay. You all get married and such, so why shouldn’t they? Aren’t they just as deserving of happiness as anyone else? Who the hell are you people to dictate to them whether they should be able to marry the person they love or not?
The simple fact is, when they made marriage a legal thing instead of a strictly religious one, you people lost all right to complain. If it was simply a religious issue you could deny it to anyone you want, but gays are entitled to equal treatment under the law as guaranteed by our constitution. They pay their taxes and follow the rules just like everyone else, and should be treated just like anyone else. I actually heard one of the protesters yelling out to the gay people getting married that god hates them. Wow, I thought your god loved all his children. Now you say he hates them? Why? He made them. Are you saying your perfect god created these gay people and screwed it up so now he hates them? What the hell is wrong with you people? Do you not see the fallacy of your own beliefs? Religious people have and always will be the ultimate hypocrites. What they really should say is, “Love thy neighbor, unless they’re gay, or don’t believe like you, or do anything at all that you don’t approve of. Then it’s ok to hate them, and just so you don’t have to take credit for being the jerk you are, you can blame it all on god’s will and skip along on your merry way to make the next person you don’t approve of miserable.”
Then you hear religious people say, “Well the majority of Americans don’t want gays to be able to marry.” Ok, following that logic, what about if the majority of Americans were in favor of slavery? Would we all have slaves now? How about if the majority of Americans decided we had had enough of Mexico invading our country and decided to commit genocide on the Mexicans? Is that ok too just because the majority approves of it? How does a majority of anyone being in favor of anything suddenly make it the right thing to do? The answer is, it doesn’t. All it does is make you people look like a bunch of mindless sheep who, based on nothing other than a desire to impose their beliefs on others, want to keep rights away from people who have every bit as much a right to them as you do.
It’s not like christians have treated marriage all that well either you know. Look at the divorce rate and all the spousal abuse and infidelity and everything else. Do you really think gays would treat marriage any worse than you people? They’d probably treat it better because they’d appreciate it more after how long it’s been withheld from them. Plus, for the most part, they’re not going to be breeding and bringing more stupid people into the world.
Anyway, that’s my rant for today. I wasn’t going to rant about anything, but this stuff just irritated the hell out of me, so I figured I would.
