Hate Crimes...RIP Moses AKA Teish

This past weekend an acquaintance of mine was killed. The story is below, but sources tell me other things happened prior to this killing. It really just brings back a lot of crazy things that I've been trying to get over for the past year. I'm not really in the mood to blog right now, but I'll be updating this soon.

The Story: (Half of it anyway)

Cliche...or not.

Okay toady's election day, and of course I voted! Yes, it was my first time voting and it didn't hit to a few minutes ago, but it feels really good. This makes me want kids so I can tell my grandchildren what I did. That is assuming Obama wins. I wrote a couple of weeks ago about this whole political thing, I never published what I wrote. But I'll speak on it a little right now. I'm not the sharpest knife in the box when it comes to politics. I'm not 100% sure who stands for what, but I know who has my interest more so in mind. Its not really my fault that I'm not that savvy when it comes to politics, It just wasn't an interest of my parents, therefore it was never talked about. In my adult life, all two years, I have tried to gain some knowledge in politics. I feel this is the responsible thing to do since I will certainly be exercising my right.
I'm just excited, this is historical whether or not Obama wins. My first ever presidential vote was for a man of color...that's all I feel like talking about right now.
