So I just got done watching the newest episode of CSI NY and it really bothered me...
**spoiler alert if you are more behind than me and don't want me to ruin it**
It was the usual murder (which if we go based off the TV shows happens several different times a day and in more ways we could ever imagine) then the victim turned out to be a skin head (stomach turned sour right away) then the suspect was another Neo-Nazi (seriously considered turning it off when he started spitting racist remarks) then the last conversation of the "victim" (I use the term loosely because in my opinion he got what he deserved) was with a cute little old Jewish man (which I just think is so cute!!!!) and he showed his tattoo or mark and we all felt bad he was crying about how he had to sell his only left over broach from his dead wife to support his very Jewish son and family. Very moving then Mac (detective hero) goes to the Israeli diplomats and tells them he wants to return all the "keepsakes" the "victim" had collected to the families of the people they were stolen from (my heart filled with the goodness in him) cut to them watching a video of a sweet old Jewish lady talking about how she was the cousin of the woman who was tricked in to giving the broach (yes the one the little old man was selling) to a neighbor who was going to sneak them to safety and then taking to Auschwitz. It turns out that the "sweet little Jewish man" raising a Jewish son is actually a Nazi who snuck into the US using a fake mark pretended to be a Jew to avoid persecution gave the broach to his Jewish wife them never knowing the EVIL PIG he truly was!!!! I was ready to jump through my laptop (I watch online) and kill him myself as he said awful things to the Jews as well.
This got me so flustered and thinking how can we live in a society where it honestly seems like the bad people out weigh the good? Evil walks around getting away with MURDER, RAPE (Afghanistan has made it legal for a husband to rape his wife), GREED (lets not talk about these government bailouts to the banks), Gluttony (more people are obese now then ever before). And us good people (I consider myself and anyone I deem a friend good) have to suffer and squabble to make ends meet. It just really gets me down sometimes. Its just so disheartening that I brought two gorgeous GOOD kids into this world and have to try to explain to them how being bad (mean, fighting, stealing, ignorance, bigotry and lying) can be easier but being good puts you in a better place overall and if there is a God or heaven that's going to be worth not being as wealthy or successful in this life. And eventually being good will make you wealthy and successful in the ways that really count.
Just a few thoughts.
