Bloggers Beware!

Isn’t this lovely? According to a University of Washingtonreport, every year more and more bloggers are being arrested and prosecuted for committing the felonious ‘crime’ of freedom of speech. More than half the arrests since 2003 occurred in some of our favorite countries like China, Iran, and Egypt where you could be sentenced to jail time for daring to say: WHAT THE FAK especially regarding the naughty topics like human rights abuses and government corruption. Gee, if these governments aren’t guilty of such things, then why are they punishing those who expose them? I think we’re seeing a great exhibit of the old saying: The more they deny it, the more you know it to be true. Just think Bush administration folks. Every time W or his boys assure us something is more definitely not true, what do we find to be absolutely wholeheartedly true? That which he denied the most vehemently of course!

Ok, you may say, this is not right. People in China or Iran or Denmark or Ohio or anywhere should have the right to speak their minds and say WHAT THE FAK regarding whatever the fak they damn well please just as we can so freely in the U.S. or U.K. or Canada or most of Europe, right? People should not be governed by oppressive regimes that control what a human being is able to express. If someone has a problem with something, they should be able to say so freely without fearing prosecution especially regarding human rights violations. If something so vicious is left unaddressed, how are we to ever solve pressing problems affecting people’s lives? If you were the subject of abuse, wouldn’t you hope for some kind soul who gave a flying FAK toopen their mouth to try to help you? If you were, for instance, a woman sentenced to being stoned to death for maybe showing too much ankle in one of our favorite places like Saudi Arabia, wouldn’t you wish for people to make a lot of noise about it so maybe, just maybe, the rest of the world would band together and tell King Abdullah and his thugs: “Look, you backwards FAKS, just because you’re in charge of the oil spouts and everything and get Georgie to dance with you and your sword does NOT mean you can treat your people in this vile manner. How about we stone you to death and solve the first problem? How about that?” See something like that would qualify as what I call a D.S.A.F or ‘did society a favor’ because as I see it, that guy is someone we can do without along with all of his other shits who think they were put here to make the lives of others, especially the poor saps unfortunate enough to be born non-royal Saudis, absolutely faking miserable.

This is just one example. So many people in this world, especially plenty within the U.S suffering in dire situations like lack of proper healthcare thanks to our royally faked up system, need that voice. Usually our noise doesn’t make much of a difference because no one is reading or listening or if they are, they don’t give a fak. People of power seldom care if the little guy is suffering but then there are other little guys/girls like ourselves that feel it’s our duty to share what we know with others. Many people don’t know, and we strongly believe awareness is the only way we can ever hope for improvement. If people don’t know about such issues, how the fak will we ever improve them? As my mom used to say when we were kids, ‘the squeaky wheel gets the oil’ so the more noise we make, perhaps the more we can influence an improved outcome or not but we have to try and we have the fakin right to try and speak our minds.
