Wow! I can't believe that a football player would have the nerve to attack one of their teammates like that. Not only does that completely disgust me, but even more so, it really shows how even though racism still exists today (though more subtle), not only was it a lot more open in the 1950s, but even more so, it was much more violent as well.
However, the thing that I find to be most shocking is that the attacker (Wilbanks Smith) didn't even get a punishment for his actions.
However, if that had been in this day and age, I can't help but wonder what his punishment would be. While it's definitely hard to say, on the other hand, there's not doubt that they would have received some sort of punishment.
Even though discrimination still has a long way to go, thank goodness that things like this are far less frequent, and are slowly dying down.

In relation to the second bullet point, does anyone else besides me feel that Hollywood is a very corrupt industry?
While it's true that the purpose of any major studio is to make profit (sometimes regardless of the quality of the movie), on the other hand, I feel that sometimes, this can be taken to very extreme levels.
Using one example, has anyone seen an animated movie called The Lorax, which was filmed in Hollywood? While the visuals are beautiful, and though it will definitely appeal to kids, on the other hand, if one can look past that, it's basically a form of animated propaganda.
How does this relate to the communist activity in Hollywood? Not only has this been going on for years, but even more so, it just really shows how corrupt the film industry has become, and how it's always been that way, especially in this day and age.
Does anyone else feel the same way? Despite the film industry looking like a dream come true on the outside, there's really a lot that goes on behind closed doors.

Does anyone else find it interesting that video footage of a creature resembling Big Foot was possibly shot? Even though it's true that the article mentions that much of the science regarding this footage has been debunked, on the other hand, haven't similar things like this happened in the past?
In other words, there have been other instances in history where mysterious footage regarding mythical creatures has been taken, but something happened with the footage, or the theories were just debunked altogether.
In my opinion, all of this really shows how for the most part, there might be a lot more out there then we think. I'm not saying that all mythical creatures are real, but the funny thing is that quite a few of them are actually based on real life creatures.
One example of this would be vampires. While it's true that there isn't a humanoid creature that hunts at night and sleeps during the day, the funny thing is that vampires are actually based off of real life creatures, the vampire bat.
Not only can they be very dangerous, but even more so, they have been known to attack humans on several occasions too.
Not to mention that sometimes, getting bit by one can cause a person to get diseases. Overall, it's definitely something interesting to think about. |
