The Stupid 27

They said quit while you're still on top. I don't get it though. When you are dead, you will be buried 6 feet deep, down on the ground. 

What a way to be remembered. 

Kurt said it best 

"it's better to burn out than to fade away."

Flower power


They came in thousands. Armed with batons, tear gas and hate.

She came along with the thousand hopefuls like her armed with her voice, hope and a flower. She came in peace, wanted to only be heard and stood for her rights. Probably 65 years old, a teenager when Malaya found its Independence in 1957.

She was hosed down, tear gassed and obviously shut off. Hundreds like her arrested. Hundreds like her fell on the ground, beaten up, kicked shamelessly while others could only watch. 

Hundreds kneel on the ground prayed for freedom to speak.

Labelled as hooligans, a nuisance and rebels. 

Why won't they just listen..
