Guilt by Association

Wow. What a concept. Because you are friendly with someone, or are seen talking to someone, you automatically become everything they are. Nuclear fusion took a giant leap? Radiation maybe? No no, wait, people are just fucking idiots. Just today, literally, I became a victim of this ignorant point of view.

Now, to forewarn you, this is somewhat of a rant. But I'm not just bitching, so please, hear me out.

Call me an alcoholic, ill own up to that one. Call me a pothead, it will at least entertain me. But to say I am a meth head shows complete and total ignorance about me, and the things I have been through in my life. If there is one thing I despise more than any other it is people running their flappy ass gums about things they know nothing about. The next thing on the list is meth, and meth heads.

The girl I loved more than anything in this world broke my heart several times because of this disgusting drug. I have tried it once, and hated it. That one time was not while I was with her. If you see me at work, its obvious that energy drinks and apples give me plenty of energy, some would say too much. Thats all anybody needs to know about it, and that is the most I will defend my position.

From what I hear, the comment made about me was "He was talking to (so and so) and (so and so) does hard drugs (meth) so anyone hanging out with him must be doing it too". Can you make a more ignorant statement? As soon as those words come out of your mouth, you might as well shove them straight up your ass, along with any reputation you may have as an intelligent person. That statement is the epitome of guilt by association.

Making a statement such as that, suggests that Jesus was a prostitute, a tax collector, which at the time was a very dishonorable position in society, and a murderer, as well as many other things. He was with these people trying to save their souls. I, as well as the person who said this, do a show every day, where Jesus dies because of guilt by association. I hope for their sake, and my job's sake, I don't find out who said it. However, I hope like hell they read this blog.

If anything good has come from this, I will at least be careful before I judge people based on who they hang out with. The writing below is about judgement, please enjoy, and thanks for listening to me bitch. I'll bust out another blog soon that actually means something, rather than just ranting.

Two Way Mirror

Decisions, Decisions
yours are yours
and mine are mine
A childhood lesson
like all men are created equal
your no better than me
and I am no better than you
somewhere in life you lost this notion
you think yours are yours
and mine are the worlds
for their discretion, rather, yours
I don't dissect your discrepancies
they are yours
yet, somehow you fabricated
a god that you created
took a bible holy
and made it soley
your own
that you are to judge
but not be judged
by even yourself
A two way mirror you hide behind
so that you can justify:
apathy, hateful retaliations,
that in your mind
with no self awareness,
due to MY decisions
are no crime

The God you distort
sees through your lies
and the two way mirror you hide behind.
