eoc wk 9: first amendment and the news

The whole thing with the first amendment and the church burning the Koran hits on so many different levels. The story around this is that some church in Florida is burning the Koran because they don’t believe in what Muslims stand for. Well good for them. They can burn it all they want. Not burning the Koran isn’t going to save any more troops that are serving overseas. They were already fighting for no reason but for financial gain. And this is what’s going on here. This little old church wants more followers for a new cross out front. That’s the bottom line, and if it’s not then all they want to do is hate. Hate people that are not like them. The fact that people are just now starting to get mad over stuff like this in only because we have a president who is against it. I guarantee that people who are complaining now are the same who agreed with bush to fight an oil war. People like to agree instead of think on their own. They say well so and so said this on the news. Well so what. The people who are reporting the new are getting paid by the same people that are paying the president. Almost all parities are tied into some corporate greed machine that fuels their campaign and then there tied together for the rest of the President’s term. So I think in all that this would be happening no matter what, and that this is not a new issue. I think what needs to change is our whole government. The Muslim people don’t like us for a lot more reasons than burning a few books. We need to stop our capitalist ways and become a whole as a community.
