i am slipping into the airwaves, the static's where you'll find me
i'm sure some of you have seen these photo's already, or at least heard about what happened today, but i just needed to say something about it for those who aren't as informed. this morning there were four explosions in London. three on the Underground, and also one on a double-decker bus. this has led to thirty seven deaths and the injuries of hundreds of other innocent citizens.
i read matt good's blog to see his thoughts on this situation because i know he almost always has good ones, and i'd have to agree with what he's said. we shouldn't have to be scared to take a bus or a subway to work, shopping, and just anywhere. but this is what war and terrorism has lead us to be. our world has brought itself to live in fear and it seems like we have no motivation to just step back and see the real problem, whatever you might think that to be... but fighting back in the very same way they are 'terrorising' people, isnt going to do anyone any good. if we call it terrorising when they do it to us then what are we doing to them? exactly...
it really makes me think, and so far this question has bugged me; how come so many die in other third world countries from bombing and other things alike but it doesn't even make the news let alone the front page? it just doesn't seem right to me.
anyways... that is just my rant for today. i'm excited for the rest of this weekend and next week!! i got a certain party to go to, a concert with MIA! and a special adventure to accomplish. should be good! oh and andrea i miss you dammit. hahah
peace
