Veggies
1) i don't know where or how to start. cutting down on meat is clearly the first step, but i'm really apprehensive about the whole thing.
2) i don't like veggies that much. I hate the way i feel when i gorge myself on a hamburger with backon and the works, but i don't know what i would eat as an alternative.
I think that i would be a lot happier as a vegetarian, but something is holding me back, and i kinda feel like these are just excuses, but now I want to figure out why. Any ideas?
Is this really still happening?
I'm not sure if anyone heard about this, but a man was shot and killed for no apparent reason by a Transit police officer in California. You can actually watch a very clear video that shows absolutely no reason why he was shot-- even the other two police officers seemed stunned, not sure what to do or what just happened.
I just wanted to point this out because if you listen to the noise, you may hear about riots occurring California, but the reason for these protests aren't always given. It's time that police brutality stops, no matter where it takes place and in what form, and things can't change if you're unaware. Mind you, I'm not indicting all police officers as power hungry, out of control jerks (in fact I have several loved ones that are police officers), but I also realize that cops are only people and they not every person has good intentions. By bringing this to the attention of a wider audience, that audience can't say that they didn't know about the problem.
Jordan King, an inmate, once said that he doesn't sleep on the mattress provided for him because "it's too comfortable and I don't trust comfort in a place like this (prison) because it numbs you to the reality of where you really are and why". I hope that by bringing up topics such as this, I might keep all of us from getting too comfortable when the world still needs so much work.I don't have the video, but if anyone could find it and post the link, that would be helpful Thanx!
