One every important thing I see here on Blogster,
in life, on television is that we are quick to judge.When did America
become the judge is the question. Social media, the media.
We
are quick to judge usually based on what the media says, even knowing
the media will say anything that will work for ratings more than finding
the actual truth.
Kim
Davis stood against signing for same sex marriage, and she is scorned
because she had an affair and was divorced four times. Well that takes
care of Bill Clinton and he was voted into office and then re elected, maybe because he wasn't divorced just an adulterer.
How
many people in Hollywood have not done all of the above and people
think they are someone to be admired, Kim Kardashian is an example she
was married when she had an affair and a child and she has great ratings
for her reality show.
How
many people judged the NFL players that abused animals and went to
jail, knocked wife out in elevator, Deflated the football which helped
him win a game or games. They are all back playing ball and how many
people will judge them as not fit to watch? Do we judge when it does not interfere with our wants and likes?
I
am as bad as the next when it comes to judging, I judged that the
Supreme court overstepped their powers when they change the abortion
laws with Roe VS wade, Obamacare, and same sex marriage. I am not alone
in that judgement, there is many that feel only the legislature make
law.
Some
one decided that Black lives matter partly judged on the Ferguson
incident, a young law breaker that tried to assault a police officer
was killed doing something illegal. I judge that his life did matter,
but he threw it away, his decision. So the police officer's life did not
matter that this young man had already tried to get the officers gun
and was coming back for a second try.
We
need to stop having knee jerk reactions to rating driven headlines, we
need to do what Paul Harvey said,Get the rest of the story and then
decide.
