And you best believe my game is stepped up in part because I am NOT complaining.
Let's get together sometime to chat in person. I'll bring the cheese, you bring the whine.

I can complain, if I want. But, I don't stop at complaining. I actually write the people who make laws, and I call their offices. I will never agree with sitting idly by, when there is injustice. Maybe your being a weird little outcast makes you cool with injustice. I'm not cool with it, and I will go down fighting it.
My ancestors didn't die for me to just be content with my lot in life. My Founders didn't march, for me to be content with my lot in life. My teachers didn't teach, my preachers didn't preach, and my parents didn't raise me to be content with my lot in life. Maybe your parents raised you to be content with the status quo, because they didn't know any better. And that's fine. But don't try to stop me from doing what I do.
