Helloooooooooooo!
So in Boston this morning there was some drama! You maybe heard? If not....see below:

Essentially a handful of people decided that in order to call attention to racial oppression it would be a good idea to chain themselves to barrels (filled with something heavy) and lay down in the middle of the highway.
Now, like any other red blooded American I love drama....LOVE me some drams! Some one tripping on the sidewalk, a woman walking up the street with her dress tucked into the back of her pantyhose.....well okay maybe those things aren't drama, but still....
Okay, okay....let me get serious. I realize that there are people out there who take certain causes very seriously, and arguably there are some causes that need to taken seriously and racism by far is one of them.
However, I am not sure that anyone, from any race, that was stuck in traffic for the hours it took to get these people off of the road appreciated it, as in the end all it did was cause a nuisance, and they could have so easily been killed, or, caused accident. There has got to have been a better way for them to get their message across, no?!?!?!
So what do I think? They may have had good intentions, but a little more thought should have been put into it.
PS....all -ISMS suck!
