punching people has never really been my style

Until I took karate to fulfill degree requirements for this 'spensive, cracked out liberal arts education that I'm earning (and for which I'll probably have to sell all my unborn children in order to pay for), I never ever thought I'd have the drive to punch anyone. But, if punching is equated to or if punching is some kind of symbolism for argue, petition or persuade, then the people I would punch include the following:

George W. Bush

Not that this bears further explanation, so I'll keep my argument to bullet points:
1. Expensive wars that take away from the education budget in the US
2. War in general
3. Homophobia
and many many more points, but I'm getting angry. I think I'll go punch a pillow.

Ilene Chaiken (sorry to steal this from a friend's list, but she warrants further abuse)

For creating characters that persist stereotypes and for creating a character for which I've actually developed feelings. My therapist will have to field the rest of this argument. For now, Chaiken, go find your fucking tool belt because you're going to need it handy if I ever get a hold of you. (Though she probably knows more karate than I do).

Jerry Falwell

*lots of gagging noises* Conservativism that superceeds actually ethics with the use of ethical arguments. I have few words for this man, because he doesn't deserve them. He only deserves my angry fist which will probably be dressed in brass knuckles, if I can find a place to purchase them.

Beauty Pageant Contestants

Which I guess means, I'd have to punch myself being a homecoming court representative which is just as bad. Some of them are in it for the right reasons; promoting strong woman goaliology and all that. But most of them just need to locate the user manual for their brains. But by then, I will have located it and read it to them before they realize I'm in the room and have punched them. I'm a strong advocat of self-awareness that doesn't involve 'how do I look?'

Any person who believes he/she to be open-minded to point that he/she is close-minded:

I know far too many people that fit this category. Let's just say, it makes the job of spreading the news about diversity and perspective to people who might actually listen if these people hadn't gotten a hold of them first. This entry is inducing rage and anger and other negative feelings. I'm going to go watch some youtube now to calm down.
