So, as I started helping out my friends in a rally, I noticed a Jew that just recently visited our school get beat up by some racist idiot. I immediately stepped up, and took the dummy out. That's right, I took out a guy. Thank goodness for those ninjitsu classes sweatdrop
Even though I got in trouble for it, at least I'm not the other guy that got expelled. I had to wonder, where is the love in this world? Have we forgotten that others have feelings, or do we ignore that fact and just treat others cruelly?
What would you have done if you saw someone being beaten up just because they were different?
Tell me what ya think. I love to hear other's opinions ^^

Hate will always exist in an imperfect world.

The blame is with the parents and the way someone is brought up. People just dont wake up one morning and decide they hate a certain someone or a group of people, the feelings are tought and learned by people through their peers. As long as there is even one person in the world that is racist, there will always be injustices such as that.

"Ignorance is Bliss"
^ Very true.

*sorry if this is a bit vague..Im tired =p*

Too answer your question, I would help the person if I thought they didnt deserve it.

Where's the love? No idea. There are a lot of people out there claiming to be religious and whatnot and I see a lot of hypocrisy. I just think as the world goes on people only start to care about thmeselves due to technology and money. I'm guilty of it myself because I down my nose upon bums I see in the street.

Some people are trying though, I just think that the people not trying outweigh the people trying to be nice in a dog-eat-dog world.

Jews are a religion not a race.

Where has the love gone?
Well, I say with the small guy. People who are constantly reaching out for other people rarely end up with anything in life. People are naturally selfish. Wanting what's best for them, not some random stranger they've never met.

That's not a swell question. If there's no love now, then there never was any love. Human nature is the same way it was thousands of years ago as it is today. We still need, we still want, we're still greedy at times... It's the way it's always been. It's not getting worse because it was never better.

If you want to know where the love is, look at a mother and her newborn, or a newly wed couple walking around on their honey moon. It's out there if you look for it. All you have to do is try.

Kater has a good point. Love is out there. It's sometimes out in the open, it's sometimes in hiding. But sadly, hate is out there too. I'm one of those people who hates only those who hate me. I don't love who doesn't love me. If you don't hate me, and if you don't love me, than neutral feeling will be there. I give back what you give to me, don't hate you just because. If you've one something that hurts me, or others, (Like Bush and Harper) than I hate you. I don't like hate, it's an uncontrollable feeling. But so is love. And love is alot stronger.

Where's the love? In the hearts of people who care. The current time and place that we live in isn't peaceful, nor has it ever been peaceful. Not like just being quiet and stuff like that, but, like the word hate never existed. Some people wrong things about other races because either one person from a certain race did something bad to them, so they blame the race as a whole, they heard and learn from their peers etc... Yes, the idea of being able to spread the love is great, but it's kind of hard to when people just can't cooperate with each other. But don't give up hope now, one day that day will come!~

Howcould we have forgotten when we have never learned? There has always been hate in this worl. I'm sure there is a group or person that yudilike to some extent.

User ImageIt May Sound Like Me...User Image


We always make comments when someone is attacked, literally or metaphorically, due to their race or religion. At that point, we say that there is no love in the world and eveyone is a hypocrite. Yet we never acknowledge the acts of kindness that we also see, whether it be for race and religion or just a small act for no reason. So there is love out there, but we just never pay enough attention to label it as love.

Also, I would have done exactly what you did in that situation.

Theres plenty of love and plenty of good people out there, but they just seem to get tossed aside because everyones consumed with hatred, racsicm, ect. I mean the news now a days is nothing but people dying, so I refuse to watch the news. Nothing happy except for maybe the birth of a baby at our zoo comes on. There are always going to be people who hate, who judge, who kick other peoples asses just because they're different. My biggest thing is get to know someone before you judge them but everyones philosophy is your different and I'm better, more and more people just seem to have their head up there a**.

I would have stepped in, just because he was a jew doesnt mean he deserves to get his a** handed to him.

You just gotta look for the love, its out there somewhere is this crazy world.
