I've had a long day today. At my school today I was a guest at another classes speech day. To make the whole story short, one of the speeches was about walmart and how we should boycott it because jobs are being outsourced. So I knew I would get upset from the beginning. I was born in Honduras a very very poor country, so I can relate to both sides of the issue. But what I find so ignorant is how people , Americans (not all just idiots I've dealt with) have hatred for the people in other countries that have these outsourced jobs and are getting paid like 10cents an hour and yet they don't hate the Americans who are sending the jobs overseas! After the speech this one idiot, in the class, of course had to voice that he was a veteran...which is great...why state that and then say, "my wife and I once went into a store and we saw that the socks were made by Pakistani people so we immediately threw the socks down and told the manager to take those socks and shove them....I was so proud of my wife, I hate Pakistanis" ...WHAT THE F?!!!! ignorant idiot!! I was so upset I started trembling. Then I couldn't resist but I said how disrespectful that comment was and how much hatred he has for people he hasn't even met. Afterwards I left shaking....and the idiot was still talking about how he needs to help his ids and how he doesn't care about other people. What is wrong with people nowadays! seriously..........then I approach my teacher and she tries to calm me down as I cry. I'm so tired of these people, and of course I always seem to find them. I wish I could debate with people without getting so emotional. I wish I could become a better public speaker and put the facts out there. How can I be a better speaker if I'm so anxious all the damn time? I'm tired.......of myself even.
