"Nothing in the world is more dangerous than sincere ignorance and conscientious stupidity." Martin Luther King definitely knew what he was talking about when he said those words. There seems to be an over abundance of both these days. It saddens me to live in this world. The lack of common sense amongst people is astounding. I remember jokingly asking people if they are really that stupid and it seems that some people truly are. it's sad that the society we live in is filled with morons who spew hatred not because they want to inflame but because they truly are ignorant and are consciously stupid about the world we live in and the roles we play.
The onslaught of racists statements that have been making the news lately don't bother me. I was never under the impression that we live in a post-racial world. There will always be ignorant people in the world and therefore there will always be racism. I don't see the point of me getting upset every time some idiot makes a racial comment. I don't really care what ignorant people believe. I know who I am and I know what I am capable of , what anyone else thinks is irrelevant. So for all those out there who are sincerely ignorant and consciously stupid, I feel sorry for you and I can only hope that one day a drop of intelligence will seep into your vacuous minds.
