News (and also Laws and instincts)

As I said before, humans have a natural instinct that makes us to satisfy destructives and "inmoral" wishes. Then it makes me to question to myself if we really need laws, because they just repress this instinct.
I think that the most famous law is that prevents uf of killing (humans, no more). But at every moment there are a murder or a suicide. For example, these days there've been some murders in Egypt because the authoritarianism of his political leader. But it's supposed that murder is never well-taken, so why there are a lot of them everyday?
We always want to get the happiness, and if we find obstacles we'll avoid them or eradicate them, so these murders could be well-taken. But if they are well-taken, we'll be able to admit that all the murders all well-taken, because we won't kill just because. We'll kill to get something that we don't have, to "silence" one person, to take revenge or just because they give us pleasure... But of course I think that they'll never be legally accepted (luckly).
But laws don't prevent it! It's their purpose, and there are punishments but it doesn't matter, there continues being crimes. We could increase the intensity of these punishments, we could especificate so more the laws and also we could reward the people that don't commit crimes, but there'll still being crimes, I'm sure of this. We are animals, and our dams are the humans.

Destruction's instinct

These days I've been thinking about one of Freud's theories, the instincts theory and specially the destructive instinct. He says that humans have a natural destructive instinct, an energy or force that forces us to destroy, to dissolve, to damage...
It justifies sadism or masochism as also our tendence to the wars. As we have the need to join with other people, to love, to feel loved etc. We have the need to do the opposite. Culture've repressed these instincts by sublimation (and other methods). At the destructive instinct, we canalize them by games and sport, and also by using it into ourselves, making us like we feel that we should be (respectfull, without robbing or killing, honest...).
Then, "thanks" to this repression we have an omniscient "policeman" in our minds, and he will ever repress some canalizations of the wishes that we know that we musn't satisfy. I mean, if we wants to kill our father or to robe a poor man, we'll feel an "energy" that repress this wish, and we won't satisfy it directly. Instead of kill our father or robe a poor man, we'll kill a monster in a videogame or to take the football ball from the opposite team. Culture's created this energy, and I think that it won't change.
It's good to have this policeman, or it just takes happiness from us?

Human rights are not respected. Perhaps it's time to do away with them.

Human rights are so important for Humanity because their meaning and intention to make the world a better place accepting an universal way of think based on equality and respect.
But some persons could not respect them because they could difficult or close some works.
Firstly, because in those countries, where there are slavery yet, rich people won't respect these rights because if they do it they'll lose a fortune. Humans are egoist, like all animals everywe wants to satisfy our wishes. We'll adapt them to the rules and laws to avoid punishments, but if that punishment it's just to be looked like a bad man or to see the pain of another person we could just ignore it.
Secondly, because our laws and rights can be looked like just ways of think, and everyone has a different mentality but society and especially our parents are who tells us what's wrong and what's right. If this point failures, the child could get his own etical mind and to don't care about that respected and globally accepted laws.
Thirdly, because I think that if we'd get a better education, if all of our parents would have gone to a "education school" or just have a more relative mentality, their children would have been more adapted to the society and respectfull with the other people.
In conclusion, I think that laws and rights should have been like a father's voice for all us. They should intimidate us and shows us what's "really" wrong with respected, particular and accepted arguments. If they're published for everyone and taughts us (by our parents, teachers and important people for us), they could be more respected.

With no limits

I sometimes think that the best way of living is like an animal, with no repressions and with really freedom. I know that if it's real our society'll disappear, strongest people will reign using violence and intimidations, and there'll be always wars between weak people and strong people, between sons and fathers, between brothers and between friends (if they exist in this "society"). The laws that prevent murders and stealing will disappear and all we will live with the death fear. Weak people (those that've dedicated their live at studies and analysis) will die (I think that I won't last more than 3 days) by strong people (those with more body strenght or skill), and natural selection will finally lead our specie. We'll become stronger and more adapted to our ambient and we'll live just like kings or wretchs. We'll live just like 30 years, and injuries or illness would kill us again. Our lives would be monotonous, we'll get up, kill some animal to get food, kill an "enemy", rape an attractive person, eat more food and sleep. And during the night a snake will bite us and we won't see the sun again...
In the previous post I mencioned that we should be more free and to dispel some repressions. But now I've just expressed what could happen if all we do that with no limits. In conclusion, I "like" the social situation that are we now. Just some people do what they really want to do (in some cases) and the other people see them like strange people, because they do "strange" things. I don't try to lead the people to a more free live, because I prefer to be looked as a strange man than to be killed by a snake. But I'd like that my friends do what they want like I do sometimes, I'd see they like more... human.

Without repressions

I think that something like to meet with friends or to study the lesson has becomed into a need. To keep our social status doesn't give us just a site in the world, it also defend us from him. A protection maked by a repression of our primary instincts and also a beautiful mask provides us security, but this security is weak and it can be dispelled. I think that those nobile people, that are so correct and formal, should have a lot of mentals problems (if they tries to keep this personality all the day). They are forced by theirselves to be good looked by their "friends", work members and also unknowed people. They think that if they are good looked they'll live better and will obtain more pleasure, and it could be, because society reward these people, but this mentality (dogmatic, closed, steady, correct...) will generate unwell and questions like "where do I want to arrive?".
I'm not just referring to upper class, I'm referring to a mentality that all us have, that mentality that stops us to do what we want or "need" to do. For example, the last day of this first semester I feel the need to hit something, or to scream very loud, I didn't want to go home, to be on holidays and not be able to see my friends everyday... and I couldn't do that because teachers or my classmates should have stopped me. Sometimes I feel that I need to do something eccentric, like to run fast and far away, to go out one night to anywhere, to jump up a table, to shout to a teacher etc. and I can't do it because I'd have punished. But this need tortures me and I don't want to live as a repressed. Sometimes people says that I'm so strange because I do strange things, but I think that they're the strange people because they don't do what I do, and I do what I really want to do, without repressions, with freedom.
