An Open Letter to the Four Chicago Kidnappers

You utterly repulse me.

An Open Letter to the Four Chicago Kidnappers
Daily Wire

To the four teens who kidnapped a teen with a mental disability in Chicago on Jan. 4, you utterly disgust me. I can’t find the words to express how completely repulsed with you. There must be something seriously wrong with someone to allow them to physically and emotionally abuse someone who can’t fight back. When I found out, I was speechless. There must be some serious hatred in your heart to make you ever do that to someone. It was not a stupid mistake, as Chicago Commander Kevin Duffin calls it. It was a hate crime, and you should be held to your actions 100 percent.

He was mentally disabled.

If you can sleep with yourselves at night, then you must be way sicker than many. You tortured, cut, screamed at and isolated an innocent teen with a mental disability. You made him feel worthless and terrified for his life. He was humiliated and tortured for the whole world to see.

For the WHOLE WORLD to see.

You went on Facebook live and recorded yourselves doing something so heinous. It went viral. Sending a message? Maybe, but I think you’re just that stupid. First of all, you’re displaying that pain to the world of this poor teen and humiliating him and his family. Secondly, you are essentially turning yourselves in. Anything you put on Facebook can be traced to you by the cops, which is how they found you guys so that you can rot in prison.

Not only have you ruined your own reputation, but you’re adding to the black stereotype.

A race doesn’t make someone bad. White people aren’t bad, Middle Eastern people aren’t bad and black people aren’t bad. It is a single person’s actions that create how that single person is as a human. But racism is still alive and by targeting a white man with disabilities and screaming “f*** white people,” this causes those racist people’s thoughts and feelings against a certain race to be reinforced. It makes black people look bad and take some of the white population’s thoughts and feelings travel back to the 60s.

This is horrible and was beneficial to no one. It didn’t send a message. No one will get on board. Violence solves nothing. Black Lives Matter will not support you. Anti-Trump supporters will not support you. I'm glad you were denied bail and, you should stay in prison for a very long time.

It is that time of year again. Christmastime. It is one of my favorite seasons for a myriad of reasons. Here are just a few reasons why I love Christmas. This list is in no order of importance.

1. The Christmas decorations

I am that person who will decorate directly after Thanksgiving is over. This year, my roommates and I put the tree up in our apartment before we even left for Thanksgiving break. It is a great stress reliever for me to just sit in my living room and work on the huge amount of work I have before the semester is over.

5 Things To Do That Are Better Than Writing A Paper

Don't waste your time trying to write that paper when there are so many more interesting things you could be doing.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?
