Life???? Bitch what?

Around this time every year the rednecks in my town start displaying "LIFE" flags. They have them flapping from the windows on their cars. Some folks even have two!

Now you have to understand I love life, it's a beautiful thing. I am so very blessed with the one I have.

The people in this godforsaken backwoods town believe in sticking with your own. Sticking with what is comfortable and sticking with the old ways of doing things. They live "us"(white) and "them"(everything but) each and everyday. They pass that shit onto their children and breed ignorance because it is what they know and what they need to get along in this small unimportant world they have made for themselves.

So when I see all of these LIFE flags it makes me shake my head.

How are you so concerned with LIFE but don't want "those" people living next door to you? LIFE? How are you so concerned about LIFE but you won't allow big business into your town because they want to pay a good wage which will allow "those" people to move into your neighborhood allowing their children to sit beside Emma Claire ( no shit that is a girl's real name) in school.

You are so concerned with what is going on inside another person's uterus, but not concerned with the person who HAS the uterus. Bitch please!

So their LIFE flags only confirm their hypocritical lives. LIFE is more than what a uterus holds. LIFE is what is lived by those people they want to push away and hold down. LIFE is more than a flag you fly once a fucking year.

They got LIFE all fucked up!
