“The “Book” of Evil”

Another one bites the dust. And another. And another…first the cornball that got handcuffed to his bed by his ex girl, then the various teachers across the world, a few in the QC, one recently in this area who was suspended for what her friends wrote on her page, and now an athlete from the Bad News Ducks (Oregon) gets kicked off the team because he updated his facebook status after the arrest of a teammate for suspicion of driving under the influence. In his post, Jamere Holland wrote: "I wish I could block whites as friends and only have blacks LOL, cause apparently I'm misunderstood." This is after he mistakenly concluded that his teammate got kicked off the team and blasted the program calling it unfair and damaging to the team.


First off, I got two words for him...”NOT OWT.”  At what point as young person do you say to yourself somethings are just not worth it.

Secondly, all of this leads me to the first question, is there privacy on facebook? That’s an easy one! The answer is NO. I always say that when you post a personal picture, status, comment, etc, you are inviting everyone into your home/personal life. Trust me, I’ve tried to set all the privacy settings I can, but facebook will change their system every 3 months and your page becomes public all over again.  Why bother right?

More importantly, should people be fired, kicked off athletic teams, not hired/considered for jobs because of facebook? Whatever happened to freedom of speech and expression?

Nothing, because there are spirited ways of expressing yourself. The reality of it is…some people just don’t belong on facebook. Especially them party promoters who be sending all of them party invites! LOL!

If you can change one thing about facebook, what would it be?
