Thought of the Day

Is it me or does it seem like Al Sharpton and his minions have exclusive rights to oppression and discrimination?

From what I can gather; there are many forms of discrimination and oppression based on things other than race and arguably much of them just as consequential. Not to mention the fact that this form of discrimination is not one-sided as he portrays it to be. I think it is safe to say that we all experience discrimination in one form or another, regardless of whom we may be.

If Al Sharpton was truly interested in justice and "equality" than I would believe that he would address the following as much as he does race. I think it is safe to say that Al Sharpton is truly agenda driven and is not as much interested in justice for all as much as he is interested in his overzealous plight. I know this will not come to shock most people, but nevertheless, I think that it needs to be addressed whenever possible.

Discrimination due to heritage.
Discrimination due to height.
Discrimination due to weight.
Discrimination due to education.
Discrimination due to political beliefs and affiliations.

Discrimnination due to wealth.
Discrimination due to perceived attractiveness.
Discrimination as a result of nepotism.
Discrimination due to our dress, appearance, etc.
Discrimination due to what we drive.
Discrimination due to where we live.
Discrimination due to "popularity".
Discrimination due to what we read.
Discrimination due to what we eat.
Discrimination due to what kind of house we live in.

Discrimination due to level of vulnerability.
Discrimination due to physical deformity.

Discrimination due to the sound of ones voice.


More to be added to list as it will probably never be exhausted...
