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.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
