Why I'm Siding With Amber Heard

Headlines flash all around of a woman blaming a famous celebrity for the cause of bruises on her, for being emotionally, physically and verbally abusive towards her. When you hear of a woman blaming a man for hurting her, everyone sides with her and trashes the man who treated her like she was worth nothing. Once headlines came out that Amber Heard- a "B class" celebrity- was blaming her husband, Johnny Depp, everyone was claiming that she was lying just so she could get money from him. Tons of "fans" were trash talking her, calling a gold digger and other horrible names. Just because Johnny Depp is a famous actor and is very attractive and she's considered a "nobody" in the film industry, doesn't mean we have to call her out. Why can't we just believe women who are accusing their significant other of abuse instead of slut shaming her? Nobody believed Amber Heard's accusations, even with visual proof, until video footage was released and you can clearly hear screams and crying and even her apologizing. He even sliced his hand open after he tried to attack her with a broken bottle. After months of truths and lies going around on the internet, they finally came to an agreement in their divorce and Johnny Depp had to pay Amber Heard millions of dollars. Everyone still accused Amber Heard of lying about everything just so she could get a little pocket money and many believed that she had planned it all along. Even though she had proof, people still put her down.

After the settlement was agreed, Amber Heard donated every penny of money she won to help women who are suffering from domestic violence and trying to help these women escape serious situations. I praised Amber Heard for not using that money for herself. She was unselfish and used that money to help those in scary situations, just like she was. After donating all the money, lots of people gave her crap for trying to use this "stint" as a publicity stunt to try and get her into more movies. After hearing that so many people were still bashing her for just speaking the truth, I was furious. If someone is claiming that a man hurt her in ways her shouldn't be, why wouldn't you believe them and get them some help? Just because Johnny Depp is more famous than she is, why should we believe him? We don't know him personally but we see him as Captain Jack Sparrow or the Mad Hatter and we idolize this man. He looks like a man who wouldn't hurt a fly but we don't know him personally to see him behind the faces of his character.

I will support Amber Heard with whatever decision she makes with the money she won from the settlement and will continue to support whatever she decides to do with ongoing investigations. I believe 100% that Johnny Depp tried to hurt her and believe that was a victim of domestic violence. Mr. Depp: you are not a real man.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
