What is a belief you've been afraid to share publicly? (In the real world that is)
 
People tend to be more open and honest on the internet but keep things bottled up in the real world for fear of judgement, disagreements/possible arguments, etc.  Do you have any controversial views or belief's that you haven't divulged to family, friends, etc?  That's the gist of this topic. :P

No. Most of my family and friends know how crazy I am.

I have found I am more apt to share my outrage over what has been happening in Ferguson. Behind the mask of the interwebz I find it easier to speak my mind.
There are only two people who know exactly what happened..and one is dead. I do not consider myself racist, but when I see the rioting, the looting, and all the feelings of entitlement all I can think is "really? Really?" When are these people going to realize they are not going to change the world by setting it on fire. Pissed there are not enough black cops? So get off your lazy butt and go to the academy.

why is that?

of course it is, you feel more secured and safe, right?

that's such is life, but would it make a difference if he was just severally injured but survived? would his voice matter any ways over what a white cops says what happened? especially in a area where racism is strong with-in the community and police departments?


I do not consider myself racist, but when I see the rioting, the looting, and all the feelings of entitlement all I can think is "really?   Really?"
now, i'm not for rioting, looting and violence either, but when is enough is enough? especially after the police started the violence upon the peaceful people first? then you get the scum media and propagandists twisting and turning everything against the people that got attacked for peacefully demonstrating, which is legal may i add... those people know what's really going on in their town, they know how the cops are there better than any one... with the indictment, it was rigged, the prosecutor didn't want to indict the cop, why would he? the prosecutor did anything and everything to distort and make the cop the victim when in reality, the cop shot the suspect in anger and in spite, not in fear of his life... the black kid was in the wrong and the cop was in the wrong as well... and what are you referring to in "all the feelings of entitlement"?


When are these people going to realize they are not going to change the world by setting it on fire.
same thing can be said that when will you realize how messed up this country's government really is, and how crazy united states is? when will the people realize how corrupted the police and government is? and how many people get beat up and killed by the cops each and everyday? this is unacceptable and i see it as those people at least has balls to stand up and fight against injustice and brutality/racism... ever watched the gangs of new york?


Pissed there are not enough black cops?  So get off your lazy butt and go to the academy.
not enough cops are not their issue and that's not what this is all about... it's about them being racially profiled and harassed by racist white cops... as well as being beat up and killed just because it's more convenient among other things and issues...


*but i think @Nebulous meant, do you talk about conspiracies and/or theories with your friends and family or do you keep your beliefs to yourself? not worldly events and issues...
