Christian Bigots' Whining

Right now, as I write this, I'm watching the Daily Show. On it, they showed a segment where some Evangelical Christian dipshit was whining about Christians being bullied by homosexuals. He claimed that there were instances where Christians were attacked by homosexuals despite the fact that there was no evidence to support his claims. There is, however, ample evidence that Christians have targeted homosexuals with violence. He also claimed that Christians' free speech rights were being trampled upon making it harder for them to tell everyone that homosexuals are sinners that will burn in Hell. The fact is no one is trampling on their rights. These whiny little fucknuts are just pissed that fewer people are listening to the bigoted diarrhea spewing from their mouths. They're unhappy that people are becoming more tolerant and enlightened instead of being the intolerant superstitious narrow minded ignorant fools they love to control. Face the facts, you're losing the fight. Try crawling out of the Dark Ages and join the rest of us here in the 21st century.

We Want Information.

America is becoming more and more a police state. The news has been reporting that the NSA has been collecting data regarding all the phone calls made by Verizon customers over a period of time. It seems likely that the other phone companies' data has also been collected as well. The NSA is also building some of data storage facility capable of storing zettabytes of data. They claim that they're collecting this data in order to look for patterns that could provide them with information on terrorists. The problem with this is that they're collecting data on way too many people without a legitimate reason to do so. This violates the Fourth Amendment protection against illegal searches and seizures. The Information Age has given rise to the techno-dictatorship. Our government is attempting to gain unlimited access to every information database in the name of fighting terrorism. Given the amount of information that exists on every citizen, the government could potentially find out damn near anything they wanted to about someone. Checks and balances need to be reestablished before things get out of hand. 9/11 should no longer be used as an excuse for taking away our freedom. Big Brother needs a good bitch slap.

In the event of brain death

I want to let it be known that I, Michael Wayne Ursu, am the only person that can post on this blog. No one else has that level of access. This little corner of the Internet is where I occasionally get up on my proverbial soapbox and rant. And the rant of the moment concerns brain death. In the event that I wind up in a persistent vegetative state with no hope of ever coming out of it, LET ME DIE!!! I have no desire to have my brain dead body kept alive if I'm going to be nothing more than a 200+ lbs. slab of meat. Just harvest any organs that can be used to help others and get rid of the rest. I haven't decided yet whether I want to donate my remains to a body farm so they can study how it decomposes or get it flame broiled into ashes. If I were to go with flame broiling, it would be kind of neat if my ashes could be made into a set of gaming dice. That way I could continue to take part in RPG sessions after I shake off this mortal coil. It would be a complete set consisting of 2d2s, 2d3s, 2d4s, 2d5s, 4d6s, 2d7s, 2d8s, 2d10s (with 1 die labelled 0-9 and the other labelled 00-90), 2d12s, 2d14s, 2d16s, 2d20s, 1d24, 1d30, 1d34, 1d50, 1d100 and a set of 4 Fudge dice (these are 6 sided dice with 2 plus signs, 2 minus signs and 2 blank sides on opposite faces). The problem, of course, is how would I get that done? I'm not sure that there are any dice makers out there that would honor such a request. And if they did, what would it cost? But enough of this dice talk. My reason for making this entry is so I can avoid becoming like Terry Schiavo. As you may recall, Terry ended up in a persistent vegetative state and there was a legal battle as to whether she should be kept alive or be allowed to die. Since there was no explicit record of her ever declaring what should be done in this situation, the court case dragged on for about 15 years. So I'm saying it again. If I ever wind up in a persistent vegetative state and there's no hope of me ever coming out of it, LET ME FUCKING DIE!!!
