we learn what we're taught.

People can make me so angry.

The f*cking sausage party over the cubicle wall were commenting on the homeless youth, probably in response to the article on page 3.

They started going on about homeless kids and how they are a bunch of insolent brats who all left hom because they have a problem with authority. That makes me angry.

What about queer kids getting kicked out for being queer?
Or kids being sexually, physically or emotionally abused at home?
What about kids tossed into foster care because they don't have families, and would rather not be a just a paycheck?

I'm just saying that everyone has their reasons, and it is so unfair to generalize. It just makes me angry that so many people live within the confines of their box, and see only a very limited side to the story.

Gah.

Yes I do, often and loudly.

I was curious about that because you often talk about when people make statements like these in your LJ but I didn't know if you actually speak up when it happens. I highly respect you for challenging people!

Well, mostly because despite the fact that I speak out, I'm not sure how much people are listening.
