Erhm, I posted this on Clique and yeah I wanted to put it here for more to see =/
Right okay, So whats everyone doing April 13th 2005. I hope nothing, this is the day you need to be quiet. Why do you ask? 'The Day of Silence institutes a visible silence, a silence during which participants protest anti-LGBT* discrimination and abuse. Such an effort also allows us to reflect upon how powerful silencing can be, to focus on how we can make our own voices stronger and to begin to stop silencing ourselves.' Now, some of you may have seen my topic on cB about the study done on abuse of Gays and Lesbains in school and can see that I do support Gay Rights. I'm just saying this is a great 'slient' protest and I would be happy if you took part. I myself am going to show what I'm doing by wearing a shirt I will make that says Front: "SHUT UP" Back: "Protest anti-LGBT discrimination and abuse." "Day of Silence 2004" Thank you for reading and I hope you take part |

there are consequences. while you may believe in it, sometimes the consequences can outweigh the accomplishments of doing something that really has no effect on anything. like thoraeu. he didnt pay his taxes because he didnt believe in the war, so he was put in jail for it, but he got out on bail because someone paid them for him. what did that accomplish in stopping the war? nothing. he accomplished nothing at all. yes, he felt he had done what was right, but not only did it have no impact, he ended up not even sticking to his own cause, because he let someone pay them, because he didnt feel he should have been sent to jail to being with, that he had the right to abstain from doing what he felt morallly opposed to. in theory, thats great, but if everyone were to do that, that would be chaos, and the world could not work like that. if everyone stopped talking, thats great for the cause, or it would be, if it actually did something, but then the school cannot fulfill its purpose
(wow i actually learned something in school today) |
