I hate the human race, sorry to say it guys but I do. People are stupid, we can't help it but we do so many stupid things. And days like today just reaffirm why I hate people. How can an individual hurt someone else, take their life or their family?
Today I found out some news that was pretty hard to swallow, literally I almost threw up when I found out. One of my best friends (and ex debate partner's) dad was murdered yesterday. I don't know all of the details because I found out from my ex boyfriend.
What I do know is that at around 7:30 at an auto repair shop his dad and his dad's friend were shot at. His dad was pronounced dead at 9 pm after taking several shots to the chest and head. The other guy got shot 5 times and is in critical condition. The police are questioning one guy and have a few other suspects.
How can someone do this? I mean this was a good guy who didn't deserve to die. He raised his son and worked really hard (his mother is a truck driver and often isn't home).
I haven't talked to Alex yet, his best friend asked me not to call him yet. But I know it must be hard, I really can't imagine how he's coping. He's one of the greatest guys I know, and one of the smartest and he didn't deserve to lose his father. This is unfair and it totally proves why I hate people.
This is why I hate people

When my cousin was shot by his uncle he only recieved 2 years in prision. Just think of it this way as bad as it sounds he is in a better place. It sucks to hear that but it is true. My condulences to your friend and her or his family. I believe the great people pass away because God wants the good people with him. It is very sad and I hate people as well.

Love comments? I do too!
Thanks I'll be sure to pass the feelings along to him. That's terrible 2 years doesn't make up for taking someone's life, it sure as hell doesn't bring them back. I mean I've lost friends and yeah that was really hard, but I think having to help a friend cope through a personal loss may be harder.
One of my exes (the only one not being torn apart in my other blog) was even talking to me about how sad it is and something should be done to remember him even though he never met the guy, or alex
Long list of expledatives.!!!!
I lost my dad suddenly when I was in high school...not murder just suddenly... I can only imagine.
I would suggest that later today, or tomorow bring them a small lunch..they probably wont eat it but the thought will be comforting. If oyu are really close with the person, stick around... Give them a hug and say nothing while looking them gently in the eyes and just listen. You would be surprised at all the phony crazy things people say when they think they are offering condolences. When you have had enough offer to feed their animals or pick them up something from the store or take a younger sibling. Basically be a stellar friend I know you are.
Damn people

thanks for the suggestion...the viewing is tomorrow and our debate team is meeting at the school and then going together...and we bought flowers as a team...my ex told me that alex wants me to be at the viewing but didn't want to ask me...he also said that he really appreciates knowing that everyone cares...he's tough, I know it'll be hard, but with love and support he will make it through.
This story is so sad. It is hard to stay strong especially when telling stories such as these. Best of luck with everything.
Thanks, yeah the viewing was last Friday. About 8 seniors and our coaches went. Alex was holding up pretty well, but I can't imagine that it's easy. He knows that we're all here for him though.

Do you find it odd that you are not as strong as you once thought?
I completly understand why you hate people. Sometimes i just don't want to be in a world with all this hate and violence. Then I think about what i've learned about God and what he plans to do with the earth and i somehow belive that in the end it's all going to work out. So I diregard the little stuff and exadgerate the good stuff and remember that it should all work out in the end. :)
