Without a doubt, racial tensions are at an all-time high as of late. From troy Davis to Obama, to the Hispanic community to PETA, people have taken cheap shots at all types of races. However, it's this blogger view that one group is over looked, that of course being the creatures known as monsters. So in order to raise awareness and give these creatures of the night a voice to be heard, I will attempt to take comment and questions from these misunderstood humanoids, as well as provide my views, to better educate the masses on monster tolerance. 
Hollywood and writers alike have done more harm than anyone else to portray these gentle souls in a gruesome like manner for thousands of years. These humanoids are trying to coexist in this big blue marble we call Earth just the same as you and I. I sat down with Frankenstein earlier today to get his take on the situation as of late, and this is what he had to say.
"I just like the rest of the world was in shock about the whole troy Davis thing. However, it doesn't surprise me in the bit. For years, we monsters have been misunderstood. I mean look at me for example. That whore Mary Shelly had me as a cold-hearted brain dead creature. The truth of the matter is that if that whore had done her research, she would have seen that I graduated from an Ivy League college. However, times were different back then, people judged me based on my looks. It didn't help either that Dr. Frankenstein kept me bound in chains of racial hate. The question I ask everyone is, if you were me, wouldn't you feel just a bit angry? The bottom line is that I have good credit, own my own castle, and go to work just like everyone else!" I found my time spent with Frankenstein very insightful, however when asked him about his real name he broke down in tears.
"That's the thing; everyone assumes my name is Frankenstein. That is my slave name. Sure, I use it for marketing and merchandise, but that contract I signed with Universal was and is legally binding. Do you know how hard it is to look at myself in the mirror and see the shell of my former self-staring back at me? Therefore, to answer your question, my legal name is Francis Alberto Rodriguez. However it doesn't matter to the press, the demon world, Hollywood, or even to my relatives in Spain, the world will always know me as Frankenstein. But the worst part by far, is the fact that when all those villagers were coming after me with pitchforks, chainsaws, ice cream trucks, and God knows what else, they just saw me as a monster, not Francis Alberto Rodriguez."
I think the thing that has been most disturbing to me as of late, is how we the world have been judging these humanoids. It has been less than 24 hours since Troy Davis had died, but let's not forget that even in death his spirit lives on. It was this man's death that moved me to write this piece. He has had many people to be his voice, but what about the so-called "monsters" themselves. Do they not have a voice? Well folks I think it's up to everyone here to change that, starting now! Let's break the chains of hate, and start showing the world, that "monsters" are just like you and me! In my journey to understand these people, I came across the ghoul master himself, Dracula at a local Wal-Mart and here is what he had to say. 
"Oh yeah I get stares all the time now. Thanks to that twatlight movie, I get the honor of not only being a monster, but a pedophile as well. It's not fair I tell you. As you can tell, I don't even have an accent. It's that damn contract that Francis, I, and the others signed that really ruined us. Well that and that damn Bram Stoker! That piss ant wanted to do a biography of me, and what does the prick do? Turn all the facts around and makes me out to be some sex driven, blood thirsting, Transylvanian pimp! It's all lies I tell you. Sure, I like to sip back a few bottles when I wake up at night, but the truth is, I buy it at the blood bank like any other respectable and honest vampire would. The funny thing is I didn't lose my virginity until after that moron published his book. Sure, it might not make me look cool, but the truth is I had one too many Bloody Mary's one night and next thing you know I get back to her place and it all went downhill from there."
I found Dracula's story unique, but what surprised more than anything else is how the Count views himself.
"To be honest, I am just a hard working person. I find myself more like the Count on Sesame Street than any other stereotype… I know that might make many people shocked, but it's the truth. I own several McDonald's and I am kid friendly. All I ask of the people is look beyond what Hollywood has portrayed me as. I am not a sex symbol, womanizer, or out for blood. Instead look at me as a guy who enjoys funny YouTube videos, owns his own business, and above all else, believes in strong Christian values." 
The truth of the matter is that both Dracula and Francis along with others have been affected by racial issues repeatedly. So next time you pop in a Blu-ray or DVD of the "monsters", don't view them as horrible creatures of the night. Instead, when the Wolf-man howls at the moon, admire the soothing sound his voice puts out. He is not howling at the moon for blood, he is howling to say hello. When you see Dracula at the theater, shake his hand and don't run away when his fangs start to show. When Francis is playing with your little girl at the lake, he is not going to down her, rather he is going to take the time to greet her with a smile and hug.
