Supposed to be adults????

Ok,everyone has things that really,and I mean REALLY,peeve them off.Like everyone else I have a bunch of thing that set me off on a rampage of some sort.Mine is limited to complaining about what my husband isn't doing and how our daughter takes after him.I know not real mature but hey,gotta vent some kind of way.

I remember in high school,there was the "in" crowd.Yeah those clicks are still around.I had a friend of mine who tried out for football or something and got in.He later quit after the first away game because of the hazing going on on the bus.Now I'm sure everyone has read the article about the Florida A&M student beaten to death from hazing. This is a college campus and the students attending these colleges are supposed to be adults.


Yet they continue to act like children.Hazing is bullying no matter how you look at.Now you're wondering what the hell that has to do with my venting right? This is my vent.Don't you kids understand that hazing is as bad a s bullying? I mean gangs "jump" you into the gang.Bands and sports ARE NOT GANGS!!!


They are a way of celebrating the school you have decided to attend to further your education.You are there to learn,just like you did when you were a little snot nosed kid crying for your mama not to leave you at school.You're supposed to be adults.Yeah I know,some adults aren't much better than kids themselves.But dammit GROW UP!!! 


I had a woman leave me a message about why there aren't any laws against bullying or why it isn't treated as domestic terrorism.This is why,the law doesn't have enough people to enforce such laws and the courts are so backed up now,that those charged with such crimes would probably never see the inside of a jail for years anyway.


Only in hazing deaths will there be charges filed and young people's lives destroyed.What about the victims life? Their lives have been snuffed out by the beatings and suicides because they couldn't get in to the fraternity or sorority they wanted to be in.Now I never went to college.But even in high school I didn't much care for being popular or in the "in" crowd.I had my own friends and we did what we wanted,within the law most of the time lol. If anyone wanted to be friends with us there was not initiation or hazing bs.

A friend of mine asked me a long time ago that if I went to college would I join a sorority? My answer hell no.Me be part of some group of girls who thinks they are better than anyone else and whose only goal in life is to land a rich husband? Not me.That's just my opinion of fraternities and sororities.I maybe wrong but I don't think so.


When are we as a race,meaning the human race,going to wake up and start teaching our kids that we don't need to follow others into the abyss of stupidity.Remember what your parents always said when you were younger? " Just because Johnny jumps in the lake doesn't mean you have to." The kids doing the hazing are nothing more than "grown-up" bullies.And they will eventually get what they deserve......jail time or a swift kick in the pants!
