my dads’ so ignorant

I’m watching the peace maker: LA gangs, and he comes down and watches for a bit and says “They’re all idiots”. My dad doesn’t look deeper into anything. The LEAST open minded and the least understanding. I can’t stand it. He doesn’t know anything about them and how their lives have been. There is no talking him out of any belief, what a brutal way to live. This is the main reason why I do my best to be as understanding as I possibly can- that reason, and because it’s the right thing to do, I never want to end up like him. What a sad and bitter man.
