Everyone keeps putting down the police lately. I just want you to think for a minute about what doing their job means. It means putting your life on the line every day with the threat of catching a bullet because of the color of your shirt. It means serving the public even though the bad mouth you, call you racist, swear you up and down, and call for your head on a pike. It means not knowing what could happen in the next 3 seconds. Every call has the potential to be your last. Now imagine being a white cop who works in a predominantly black neighborhood. Who will be singled out because of the color of his or her skin. Automatically labeled a racist, mean, and unforgiving. Finally, imagine you are injured, imagine someone has broke into your home while you were at work but your 14 year old daughter was home from school. Imagine that no one would be there for her. Imagine the fear she has, imagine the suffering she could go through. Because that's what happens when you turn your back on the one force that consistently goes up against evil on a daily basis and doesn't ask for anything in return. That's what being a cop means. Living to fight another day.

America's Youth

I don't know how much of this you guys and girls realize but America has lost its values. It seems that as the eras grew on and time passed, our values which meant so much to us had passed along with it. We used to be a proud nation, a proud people with aspirations to great things. Now we seem to fit and bicker amoungst ourselves and slander our ways while we commit them. We lost our ways and are to blind to realize it or too stupid and ignorant to admit it. We are still a proud nation and have so much to offer the world if we only open our eyes and make this country great. We have the power to change the world and ourselves yet we seem content to just complain about our lives and politics instead of fixing them. What happened to first dates to the malt shop? Or picking our dates up at home, while getting a stern talk to from our dates father about when she should be home? When did our lady's become so disgraceful and easily gotten to? Why is it okay to wear shorts that show cheeks, and better to show curves then to wear a beautiful dress or skirt more then those? Do you see what I mean? Our lives and way of life have become so wrapped up in mainstream sex and beauty that we forgot our manners, our sense of consciousness. That little voice in our head saying that's too revealing and we don't want to look like a run-around-sue. What happened to our parents taking responsibility of our children and making sure they were properly dressed before leaving the house. A thirteen year old should not be wearing "yoga pants" outside of the house (or inside in my opinion). There used to be a time when 50¢ could buy you and your girl a couple of malts and one dollar would get you into a theater to see some cartoons or a good movie. Americans defined the 40's and 50's. Everyone wanted to be us and our enemies couldn't stop us. Hell were back to back World War Champions. Our allies called on us to get in the ring and send those commie bastatrds back to Hell and goddamnit if that's don't what we did. All I'm asking for is for our generation and those yet to hit their prime to get our shit together and start being proud to be born into a country that values us as humans and our certain unalienable rights. We're fucking Americans. We kick ass, take names, and set the world on the straight and narrow. We take girls out on dates and have them back to dad by nine pm. We pay attention to our politics and vote every election to keep our great country great. Because we wouldn't want to let Uncle Sam down, ever. Let's get us back on the straight and narrow. Let's be Americans again.

August, the proverbial month that puts your whole summer into perspective. School begins for college and general kids alike. Homework, study time, tests, and worries about grades hit all like a train from Hell. Yet the subtitle difference between college and high school is that high school was and will always remain free. The one thing high school never prepares kids for is the stress college will bring on from not having money to pay for it. You get pressure to go straight into college after college and that everything will be okay but what no one tells you is that there are no jobs for your degree. No way to lay off that debt you're in. You're field of study is either dominated by specific race of people or no longer deemed necessary. So how do we college students get out of this debt we are in? What's the bail out plan for us? Nothing. You will be asked to pay it back for the rest of your life or have them take every pay check you'll ever make. All for a degree you'll never be able to put to use. Sure you could work at Enterprise Rent-A-Car and make decent money but in reality its not your dream job. Your other option is to just default and file bankruptcy in a court and hope you don't have to pay anything back and start fresh (after court and retainer fees of course). I guess all I'm saying is take the time to figure out if your career field is even hiring new college graduates or if they will when you graduate. It's a lot of pressure on you but it's nothing compared to what college will put to you. In the mean time, keep enjoying the good life as high schoolers. Have a few underage drinks and make a bad choice or two. Just know come May it will all change. You will have to grow up and make your own decisions. Good luck class of 2015, I hope you do better then the rest of us.

4 July 2014

1776 marks a milestone not only for Americans but for the world. July 4, 1776 is the day in history where democracy and freedom become united on a while new front. It marks the birth of a nation, an idea, and a certain god given right. For the first time since the dawn of civilization democracy will flourish for years to come and become a symbol of freedom, justice, and savior. Citizens of a nation will band together to combat the worlds injustice and make it be known that our freedoms and rights will never be taken from us. In the years to follow 1776 America will stumble and crawl into life as newborn nation; yet it will never falter to exsist. She will grow to become a strong defiant country that comes under attack from neighbors and distance relatives. England, our ancestor across the pond will return to burn our capitol city and attempt to destroy our nation but will fail. Mexico will start a war in which they could not win and we will start to fight amongst ourselves about who deserves freedom. We are not perfect people, we do not always see our own faults but we try to. There is always someone out there to point out our mistakes and hold grudges for generations to come even after wrongs were righted. But what makes our country so beautiful is that for the last 200+ years we were able to enjoy our freedom and rights as well as share them with others. We change our constitution and amend what we need too. We vote for our representatives and get taxed to cover our debt. But make no doubt in your mind that if our rights were tread on to harshly we will not, nor could not, tolerate such an act without meeting it with forceful action. Because it is our right to protect ourselves from any aggressor foregin or domestic and we will exercise that right if needed.

In the event that I am in fact dreaming and the past four years have just been a dream as a result of my untimely death or coma just ignore my posts you fictional characters. The last four years have been a trying time for myself, I had my highs and my lows but always seemed to come through it, torn and battered, alive and okay. I honestly believe that there is a force at play that I cannot ccontrol but controls me at times when I need it to. Whether thats a god or just the universe or all in my head depends on your own beliefs. I will admit I have asked for help in my life. I looked to the stars and begged for help and some how by some crazy miracle I got the help I needed and my life got on the right track. Now its up to me to keep it on that track and to keep going in the correct direction. Theres always going to be a time in our lives when we hit bottom. But bottom is not as bad as you think it is. Bottom just means you can't go any further down, it means your test begins; A test of your will. You have to climb to the top of that pit to move on and the only person there to motivate you is you. You need to rely on yourself first before you put all pigs into one basket and bank it all with religion or a higher power. I climbed up and then used the stars to guide me away from the pits to get on a safer road. Perhaps thats what we are supposed to do. Don't be ashamed to ask for help, but don't expect it to happen quickly. Whatever contributed to helping me, I am eternally grateful and thankful. My life is great and excatly what I wanted. As long as I keep it on this track I will be good. Keep your heads up and remember how strong you can be and everything will fall into place. Oh and don't be afraid to ask for a little help every now and then!

#religion help universe happy life

I may bot be religious or believe a single being is responsible for everything; but I do believe the universe allows us to make our own decisions and only intervenes when we ask it to. With that being said... Dear Universe, Its Zach, I just wanted to ask you for a little help here. Lately I've been going through a slight rough patch with some stuff. I just want you to know that while I appreciate to free will, I could use a little more guidence in my life. I hope I'm not overstepping any boundries here. Thanks for hopefully reading this. Sincerely, Zach.
