Hey, my name is Ben (or so everyone calls me). I am pretty laid back, cool guy. I can talk for hours on subjects that range from literature to sports. I am very fond on my friends, I only allow a few people into my world, and the ones I do, I truly cherish them. I love music, I can listen to just about anything and like it. My choices of music ranges from Shop Boyz to Elton John or Frank Sinatra. I enjoy studying people and listening to their experiences in life or anything else thats interesting. Highly opinionated, and driven for success.I believe you create your own destiny. I am a firm believer in whatever goes around comes around and i try to apply that to my own life. I make mistakes, but i also learn from those mistakes and become a stronger person. I thank God for all the hard times because i wouldnt be the person i am today if everything was perfect. God sometimes takes things away from you to replace it with something even better, so dont get upset when things dont always go the way you want them to. I believe the money I make belongs to me and my family, not some mid-level governmental functionary be it Democratic or Republican. I am in touch with my feelings and I like it that way. I think owning a gun does not make you a killer, it in some ways makes you a smart american. I think being a minority does NOT make you noble or victimized, and does NOT entitle you to anything. I believe that if you are selling me anything, do it in ENGLISH. I believe everyone has a right to pray to his or her god when and where they want to. I dont hate the rich, and I dont pity the poor. I know wrestling is fake and I dont waste my time watching or arguing about it. I have NEVER owned a slave, or was a slave, I have NOT burned any witches or been persecuted by the Turks and neither have you! SO SHUT UP ALREADY. I believe if you dont like they way things are here, go back to where you came from and change your own country! THIS IS AMERICA. I want to know which church is it exactly where the Reverend Jesse Jackson preaches, where he gets his money, and why he is always part of the problem and not the solution. I think cops have every right to shoot your sorry ass of your running from them, I also think they have the right to pull you over if your breaking the law, regardless of what color you are. No I dont mind having my face shown on my drivers license, I think its good. I am PROUD that "GOD" is written on my money. I think if you are too stupid to know how a ballot works, i dont want you deciding who should be running the most powerful nation in the world for the next four years. I dislike those people standing in the intersections trying to sell me stuff or trying to guilt me into making "donations" to their cause. I believe that it doesnt take a village to raise a child, it takes two parents. And what the hell is going on with gas prices. I believe "illegal" is illegal no matter what the lawyers think.
