Democracy to me

This picture was taken in downtown San Luis Potosi Mexico in late July. Democracy to me is seeing how different we all really are and how we are all free to live completely different lives and go in very different life directions.

"I have been a part of the community since I was born, I've watched as it has rapidly grown throughout the years". With that "I would like to be remembered for supporting those in the community who feel they don't have a voice in our community."

Democracy to Me

Have it your way. This picture was taken in 8903 South Tryon St, Charlotte, NC 28273 in August 7, 2015. Democracy to me is how free we are, to go different paths and able to think differently, begin able to get a set limit only if we limit ourselves.

Our Democracy

Some may ask how this picture signifies democracy. To me its very clear. democracy to me is the freedom to choose what to do with my life and time. If I want to game and eat chips that is what I will do, and because of democracy I can do that.

Our Democracy

Liberty and Justice for all

As some may stand for the pledge and others may just sit down. And few might even support, but still not get up, why? One’s opinions should not affect us, but how come we feel offended if one person doesn't share the same faith as we do.

The Scary Truth of Democracy

The power of even one vote can sway the decision of all, half of the people will always be unsatisfied that is what terrifies me. Morality that respects democracy shatters then they the go against the fold with anger and rage.

Friendship is democracy because we all have different opinions but still come together.

Our Democracy

True democracy is a great goal, of course everyone wants to have an equal say, but in practice there is still injustice. Not everyone has the same size straw, and some don't even have a drink, so to say.
