Shark Attacks: Why are we seeing more and more of these?


Recommended Posts

Not long ago in the news, there was coverage of a person being attacked by a shark. The news anchor said something to this effect: "We're seeing more and more of this. Is it because of all the sharks or is it because of all these underwater cameras?"

You know what? That is too real. Cameras /satelites everywhere, watching everything EXCEPT the more important things it seems. If more lives are being lost in the streets of Chicago than in the "conflict" involving Afghanistan and if there are cameras all around, where does our logic take us in such a situation? When drugs are being shipped in by these planes, we don't see or hear about this, yet we see the effects of this constantly in our neighborhoods. Where does our logic take us in such a situation?

Eye tracking devices to record consumer data/shopping habits. Money for such fancy technology yet no money to sustain pre-k programs? Forget what you heard. Education is "not" the key. Education is almost obsolete. Consumerism is the key.

"Watching Me" by Jill Scott

Watching me,

watching me

Watching me,

watching me

Watching me,

watching me

Watching me

First thing when I wake up

And right before I close my eyes at night

I think, sense, feel man likeI'm under some kind of microscope

Satellites over my head, transmitters in my dollars

Hawking, watching, scoping, jocking, scrutinizing me

Checking to see what I'm doing?

Where I be? Who I see? How and where and

With whom I make my money?

What is this?

Excuse me miss, may I have your phone number

And your social security? Who me?When all I came to do is buy my

Double or triple a batteries

Please, I decline

Watching me, watching me

Watching me, watching me

Watching me, watching meWatching me

Watching me, watching me

Watching me, watching me

Watching me, watching me

Watching me

Look here at this watch of mine

Gotta open it up

Don't know who's been in it

Tracking where I go

Finding out all my business

Se-cur-i-ty, video cameras locked on meIn every dressing room, on every floor, in every store

Damn, can I get that democracy

And equality and privacy?

You busy watching me, watching me

That you're blind baby, you neglect to see

The drugs coming into my community

Weapons coming into my community

Dirty cops in my community

And you keep saying that I'm free

And you keep saying that I'm freeA

nd you keep saying that I'm freeBusy watching me

Watching me, watching me

Watching me, watching me

Watching me, watching me

Watching me

I ain't got no bars to this cage

If I'm gonna stay here

I'm gonna build me a lead house

Keep them satellites out, direct TV

Am I watchin' it or is it watchin' me?

Man I don't really know, but I feel likeI feel like, I'm being scoped y'all

Watch y'all

Somethin' ain't right

Somethin' ain't right

Watching me, watching me

Watching me, watching me

Watching me, watching meWatching me

And you keep sayin' that I'm free

And you keep sayin' that I'm free

And you keep sayin' that I'm free...
