Don't just wank, do something about it!

Yes, I get it.  Sam and Dean and Kripke and Ben and Sera and all the rest are racist, misogynist jerks, and the show was better in season one, and you hate the mythos, and you want to get back to good old fashoned case shows and you hate angels.

You know what?  It's fiction.  If you're going to complain about the way things are shown on the show, why not complain about the violence?  Why not complain about the guns?  Why not complain about the fact that Lucas's mom let him play around a lake without watching him.  Where was his life jaket?

It's easy to find something wrong if you're looking.  Instead of complaining about something wrong with a fictional show, why not try to fix the problem in the real world.  Or better yet, complain all you want.  But every time you want to complain about a problem on the show, donate a dollar toward fixing the problem in real life.

Misogyny wank?  Donate a dollar to the local battered women's shelter.  Angry about the fact that only minorities get killed?  The ACLU would love your donation.

You've got a right to an opinion, but why not make it count?
