Author's note: Last week in class we were assigned to find a quote that we like, and to explain what the quote meant to us, and whether we agree or disagree with the quote. I personally love the quote I chose because it fits into me personally and at the same time it fits into other people of all ages lives. Enjoy!
"Why is it that, as a culture, we are more comfortable seeing two men hold guns than holding hands?"
Every quote has a different meaning and every person has a different perception of what the author of the quote was trying to portray. To me, this quote signifies that in this day and age and in this society we are more comfortable seeing negativity and the darker side to things than to see happiness and love (in this case in the quote, gay rights) I also believe that the quote means that way has been a system and an everyday thing to hear about war, shootings, guns and war. It seems that today slaughter, and vulgar acts of human nature are more normal than peace, serenity and compassion towards each other.
