I want you all to think or a moment about a tragic event that occurred on our land... America. Land of the free, home of the brave... amber waves of grain and so on... One event that, for a moment, time stopped. The earth didn't move. Life paused, hair grayed, lives were lost... and all at the hands of a foreign group of radical extremists who have no passion for life, but rather, their promised, 'life after death'... I'm talking about an event so extreme, lives were forever changed... But I will not say it. I want you to look at a picture. I want you to examine the entire picture. The object in the picture is a simple object... but the images on the object aren't so pleasant. They aren't porn or any thing illegal, so calm down. But they may cause your blood pressure to rise, you anger to increase and for a moment, you may see red... But I want it made clear, this picture is not to insight anger, hatred or bigotry towards Muslims in general... As previously posted in a blog, not all Muslims are terrorists, and not all terrorists are Muslims.
Ready? Set. Go!
I apologize for the image not being as clear as I'd like... I did not take the picture. This was shared on face book tonight by a friend of mine. When I seen the picture at first, I couldn't make out what it was... but then I made it bigger (cause with age come vision loss) and then I could see it clearly. In addition, I will not say what I see, but rather, let you decide for yourself.
One must ask the question though... Is Pepsi playing both decks of cards? Are they secretly supporting some foreign group? Are they just clueless at advertising? Or did they inadvertently post something that looks like a grim reminder for all of America to see? Either way, shame shame!
I'm not asking you to boycott Pepsi. I'm not asking you to write angry hate mail or do anything stupid! I'm simply trying to open your mind to the world around you... Because here in the Bible Belt, we get our eyes and our minds opened when we are told to, unless we decide to become HUMAN and do it ourselves!
Until tomorrow,
LaVonda
