DO IT AT HOME NEXT TIME, AND SHUT THE FUCK UP
I'm all about love with your significant other but doing it in public to the point where people are complaining and having the cops called is a whole other issue. The Danielle Watts incident has been a huge news item because upon being approached by an officer she began to play the race card.
Fuck Danielle Watts and that bullshit move, a million times over. The fact is that minimally she was straddling her boyfriend in a car with the door opened. The police officer that arrived at the scene was within his right to ID her. As a minority myself I'm pretty pissed that she thought it was cool to say this was a race thing. At no point did the cop say anything about her being black, at least not in the recording. The fact is that had she given her ID chances are that they would have been given a simple warning and that's it.
Don't use the race card a fucking get out of jail free card, it doesn't work and it never will. It's bullshit moves like that which create racial unrest for no necessary reason.

IF IT ISN'T IN PERSPECTIVE YET, LET'S TAKE IT THERE
I once heard a mind blowing stat that by the end of my high school years I would have watched close to 17,000 hours of television. To me that stat was a clear example that life was somewhat trivial. I thought " What the fuck man?" I was 17 when I heard this and honestly I had no clue.
What I have realizing is that TV has an incredible amount of power, the power to change life as we know it and society as we see it. Let's put it into a serious perspective here. When FDR died it was a couple of days before the country was completely aware of that fact. When JFK was assassinated it was around in the same day.
Television the medium that gave us Watergate and the eventual fall of a president. Yes, today television gives us a lot of shit that's come around as the result of praise lavished upon the mediocre. Television began the quest of making the world a smaller place, social media has made it an art, but television started it. To put it in perspective, what was once an invention that served as a form of entertainment is today the tool that brought the world together.
It's television that gives us a little to talk about in the water cooler, something to argue about with politics, and the things that bring us together.
