What news are you sick of hearing?


Recommended Posts

I’m so sick of seeing African Americans being the subject of police brutality in my country. Every time I see it I think of how it could have been me, especially since I’ve had to put up with racial profiling from the police since I was a teen. There’s been so many times that cops have pulled me over and asked to search my car or lie and come up with “probable cause” to search me or my car. I’ve been stopped and hassled by the police so many times just trying to go for a walk. I’m sick of it and I hate to see other African Americans dealing with it because I know how it feels.

The Hebrew word cushi or kushi is an affectionate term generally used in the Bible to refer to a dark-skinned person of African descent.

Every time a person commits a violent act and the news has to make it clear what mental disorder or neurodiversity this person possesses. Like that Sandy Hook shooter wherein EVERY SINGLE NEWSREPORTER had to make it clear he had autism; I think there was another incident where it had to be made clear this person has Autism. I mean, Autistics are the group most likely to be unemployed, victims of bullying and harassment, struggling with just day to day things and living on their own despite often being highly intelligent, if there is any group that ABSOLUTELY DOES NOT NEED ANY ADDITIONAL STIGMA ATTACHED TO THEM, it's people on the spectrum, but idiots who deliver your news keeps feeding it. That incident made me incredibly resentful to news media. But, to be honest, I don't care if it is a mental disorder that is associated with increased violence, it doesn't need more stigma attached to it. I don't know how these news people sleep at night

Sorry for the all caps but words cannot describe how livid that makes me.

COMMERCIALS

I'm am sooo sick of tv commercials trying to sell us funeral plans / life insurance. (British tv I refer to. Can't speak for the rest of the world). All those happy people on tv fantasizing about how great their funerals will be and how irresponsible it would be, to be so inconsiderate as to die without such a plan in place, thereby depriving your family of a cracking day out celebrating your demise,  complete with a marching band, a marquee and caterers. Aaaaaaargh  ( Rant over) :taz:

Folk singer Tom Paxton has a great song about "Forest Lawn". Pretty funny satire about funeral businesses.

We have those in Oz and what really gets right up my nose is the fact that if you take out one of these funeral plans/ insurance when you're 30 or even 40 and don't die till you're 70 or 80, the ridiculous amount of money that has been paid into these schemes is off the wall. To my mind it is a scam of the tallest order and just plays on peoples' emotions. Just another greedy, self-serving con!!  Now I ranted. Soz!! :flowers:

Don't give up .. it's just around the corner.

Am sick of the entire world empire of Satan and his demonic forces.  And I can't handle the song "Just Around The Corner" cuz, its been over 40 years of corners, and no one has been around that corner yet.  At least I see a train coming at the end of the tunnel, but don't tell me that Its just around the corner, cause I don't see it yet!

I'm sick of all the fires that are being reported, more and more are popping up all over.

But sick of them because of the devastation they cause both in material, natural and human lives.

 

In fact there's not much in this system I enjoy at all now.

All political parties are demagogues.

dem·a·gogue
noun
  1. a political leader who seeks support by appealing to popular desires and prejudices rather than by using rational argument.
     
    the world is becoming more and more polarized. The news media promotes political tensions  as well. 
    its seems to me that Satan sees the writing on the wall and his system is coming apart at the seams, and he hopes to suck us in and bring us down with him....we need to try real hard to stay neutral! 
    Unfortunately many of us are having a hard time with that.

 :angry: It makes me sick when they use animals as breeding machines! I realise that some animals are endangered, but whose fault is that?  Not the animals!!!!  And Jehovah is going to sort all of that out. 

 

Sorry for the rant!! :flowers:

That is why I so much look forward to the fulfillment of Revelation 11:18.

 

That is what keeps me sane when I hear of animals being abused. 

 

For this it cant happen to soon for me.
