Some flipping friend you are...

If you haven't watched "Orange is the new Black" do yourself a favor and watch it!  Like one of my favorite pass times - people watching - this show brings together races, ideals and showcases them in such a brilliant way.  In this case, ladies are in prison together and well it does a nice job to show how different and similar we are.  On top of this, we've got the crime element.  Which in most cases comes down to opportunity and education.  Again, this show gives us reasons why folks do what they do.  And in a believable way we see how crime turns out to be the only choice for many of these folks...when opportunities aren't available and lots of illegal avenues are...well do the math.  But also, we have a collection well to-do folks that simply follow others for whatever reason.  Stupidity doesn't run specifically to race or creed...we all have the opportunity to be stupid and blindly follow a route of illegal fun.

At the end of the day, we all have the ability to chose a better place for ourselves and our children.  Oh and did I mention that dumb folks seem to our breed the smart folks...that is a problem in itself.  We have a generation of youtube filming retards that want their fifteen minutes NOW!  We need to make school and education cool again.  Respect knowledge and not take the easy route...I know doing bad looks like fun...but doing smart needs to rule the day!  Or we might as well book our future in doomsday bunkers...
