Perch 2.0

In the past on this blog, I wrote about my every day life. Basically things that the average reader wouldn't take much interest too.

Those days are over.

Welcome to the Perch 2.0.

With the current climate in the world in regards to respecting our fellow human being, I realized it high time I step up to the plate and use my freedom of speech. Not everyone has the ability to do what I can do. Not everyone can post their stance on various topics on controversy without fear of losing their homes, their friends or even possibly their lives. It is a right and freedom than many of us here in North America take for granted. A number of us don't use it properly at all. Some people abuse it or twist it to their advantage. I want to use mine to make a difference. I want to do some good.

In my blog, which I will attempt to write bi-weekly, I will discuss current situations in North America and around the world. I will discuss all kinds of topics of controversy. I will be discussing what I refer to as GRAPES. That would be; Guns, Religion, Abortion, Politics, Economics and Sexuality. GRAPES is something you should never discuss with many Americans and a number of Canadians.

To kick off my Perch 2.0 blog, I will be first discussing each topic of GRAPES in full. After than, the following posts will be on various topics that pop up.

Let me be clear that I will NOT be posting topics specific persons. I will not talk about things like Justin Bieber's arrest or how George Zimmerman made a painting about his prosecutor. While I may mention certain individuals of interest in topics, I will not be apart of a witch hunt against certain people. In other words; no Sarah Palin slams. Sorry.

What inspired me to do something like this? Easy. Currently North America in general is polarized when it comes to these six topics. No one seems to respects each others opinions, let alone the actual facts. Each of those topics affects the others in some way. They also, most importantly, affect you. You need to know this stuff. You need to be aware.

I will be giving my own opinions in many topics, but I will do my best to remain neutral. Even if neutral today does look liberal to many conservative when it comes to Uncle Sam's circus.

I am not a qualified gun expert or a theologian with a degree nor am I an expert on banks or stock exchanges. I'm just a concerned Earthling like the rest of you.

So please, join me as I peel back topics and open them up for discussion. Please keep your comments as respectful as possible to the others around you. No one will really listen to your opinion anyhow if you're going to be a bum about it.

With that, welcome to the Perch!
