Pretend If You Don't Know How

PRETEND

I don't care what demonic ideas you have or psychologically violent streak you are thinking of or ranting and raving about to get some attention...or perhaps it is that you just need to be heard. What I would like to know is how will that help THE PRESENT SITUATION.
If you cannot be normal and equip yourself with a standard and morals of our society...PRETEND

I don't want to make this about religion but you have to admit that doing to other people exactly what you would want done to yourself ...makes logical sense. AND is it so wrong to show that you love yourself so much that you understand that to love oneself, one has to accept that we are not alone and that our actions have consequences.

As individuals we have been placed here as citizens of one society which means to have the pleasure of some favorable company. Someone to laugh with, someone to share in our grief but most important, it is have someone to love.

What the ignoramuses' are doing is driving a wedge between friendships among the various races that have taken centuries to cultivate. Friendships that have gone on for so long and have been well established. Now they want these friends to turn on each other in the name of an archaic and uneducated racial divide.

Who are you? What makes you think you belong in our society? Are you so backward that you cannot see the progress that you are destroying? Are you not, in fact, a terrorist? A backward thinking idiot that has been left in the past and somehow woke up this morning to find that the world has changed so drastically around you that it frightens you.

You run around spewing thoughts of the past transgressions of a previous generation and attempt to incite the new generation which have absolutely nothing to do with the old regime and yet you expect them to follow your archaic thoughts which became outdated with the abolishment of apartheid over two decades ago.

The new generation are no fools and are internet savvy. They have been able to learn more than we could have ever imagined as we never had anything near to the resources that are available to them today.

The news declares that there are paid members of our society who have been instructed to incite violent behavior. To take a peaceful strike and turn it into a riot.

Why would anyone do this? In the event of a peaceful demonstration and with that comes a gathering of people which if led in the correct manner should always be fun and exciting and that is because they can have the day off work or college and with an excuse or reason to do so.

Unfortunately, you will always have that idiot that will incite others to do harm to the property of others...how can that be beneficial? We end up paying more for things to cover losses.

So where do they come from? These individuals are usually those members that we as a society can find early and lock them up to protect our society. Should we not therefore take these individuals of today that are a menace to our peaceful existence among ourselves and lock them up.

We have up-to-date technology and any cellphone camera that has been taking video of a situation has more than likely been posted to YouTube or can be hacked and the culprits identified. There is no such thing as getting away with it today...not in public.

In Singapore there are few police and they rely on the reporting from the members of society to maintain their outstanding existence. The streets are clean and the meaning of "A fine city" means they fine you for everything that simply does not fit.

Perhaps we should use more strict principles and hit where it hurts...in the pocket. We could use the fine money to award reporting members.

One answer may be a look back into their history and provide a list of things that they got right, either by chance or by design.

Some of the answers I like will include food, public safety, resources, etc.

Some other answers I think must be included are:
a. MERITOCRACY (A form of social system in which power goes to those with superior intellects and the belief that rulers should be chosen for their superior abilities and not because of their wealth or birth),
b. INTEGRITY (Moral soundness)/
c. INCORRUPTIBILITY (The incapability of being corrupted),
d. COMPETENCY (The quality of being adequately or well qualified physically and intellectually),
e. and an ANALYTICAL approach to problem solving. That is, we study the problem, analyze the issues, and work out the various possible scenarios.
