Opinion: I Hate That; Then Don’t Do It
OPINION: I Hate That; Then Don’t Do it.
By D. S. Mitchell
“Don’t like gay marriage? Don’t get one.
Don’t like cigarettes? Don’t smoke one.
Don’t like abortions? Don’t get one.
Don’t like sex? Don’t indulge.
Don’t like drugs? Don’t do them.
Don’t like porn? Don’t watch it.
Don’t like alcohol? Don’t drink it.
Don’t like guns? Don’t buy one.
Don’t like your rights taken away? Then don’t take away someone else’s.” (Unknown)
Short and sweet for a sunny Monday. I’ve seen this statement shared and I think the statement sums it up. Stop yelling about the actions of others and adjust your behavior and attitude. It is none of your business who I sleep with. It is none of your business if I can’t break the cigarette habit. It is none of your business if I want an abortion. Frigid ? Don’t like sex, well again, just because you don’t like it, doesn’t mean the rest of us have to abstain. Drugs, again, not good for you, but none of your business. When we get to porn, well, here we go again, if you don’t like it, don’t watch it. Don’t like alcohol? Easy; stay away from it. Don’t like guns, don’t buy one. But, most of all my rights are guaranteed by the constitution not your opinion.
