"I'm surrounded by idiot's" - Scar - The Lion King
I relate to this every day when I go to school. When I am learning about history and the things that people have done in the past I desperately want to knock some sense into their thick skulls. Unfortunately, I am an American; born and raised and have no say over where I live. America has a long never ending list of mistakes going behind them, one of them being Imperialism. We kicked the Native American's off their land, Overthrew Hawaii's queen, went and took over Cuba, the Dominican Republic and Haiti for periods of time as well as threaten Japan with warships if they didn't open their ports... I am terribly ashamed of the actions that people in America's past have committed but I swear that I shall do my best to not make the same mistakes that they did; Also, When I am able to live on my own, I am getting the hell outta Dodge.
Anyways, Good Night and have terrible dreams! :)
