I don't nessessarily love Buffy but... (written 09/2006)

I did enjoy many juvenile aspects of the show. I loved the characters and while I know many people despise the concept - the show itself - the writing - the characters - the plots and most of all buffy herself - I say to these - screw you if you cannot respect that different people like different things. I may not like everything you do and you may not like everything I do but "can't we all - just - get along??" heh heh heh... for more on this famous statement see the following link: Why Mr. King took a beating by those bad ass policemen who obviously were corrupted by their own sense of power and supremacy ? Makes me wonder about other things as well. How many cases of corruption do we hear about on a daily basis and are we as a society simply becoming desensitized against this sort of thing? When we hear that another cop beat a young man for what would appear to be no really good and valid reason are we even affected by this information anymore? Do we do anything besides shrug and think to ourselves "gee... That's too bad..." Is there anything else that actually can be done? Is that why the King beating led to race riots? Is that why these men and women who abuse their power and get caught get a slap on the wrist as punishment for their crimes? Makes me mad I think or should I even care? Let me know what you think gentle readers - that is if you can be bothered to - even a little bit. I will reflect the number of comments to this particular post as evidence to either back up my point or demolish it. Billions of people have access to the internet - surely even one of you could take the time to comment on whether or not we as a people even care anymore if power is corrupting the police and whether or not we even care enough to do anything about it. I guess we will see. eh?
