Comment on Sexual assaults spiked years visitation policy was liberalized by Kel

That reads like something the school wanted to be put in the Tribune to silence those who complain.

And interviewing someone from the college ministry about an issue like this. The answer is guessable, go ask a health professional instead

I’m sorry I should have been less gender specific in my title, or more specific in my excerpt.

You confused me with your intro line! I read it and I went into this article kind of panicking because I thought this was going to be another study that said the only children who turn out okay are those raised by both a mom and a dad (so children of gay parents were screwed), but the study itself seems to imply that parental cooperation, mutual love/support/respect, and a positive parental relationship to one another is what makes for awesome parenting, regardless of the sexual orientation of the parents.

It’s getting harder and harder to take most of humanity seriously. This is all like a bad joke that won’t just die.

I thought Secretary of State Clinton came out and said we weren’t gana agree with that shit.

Good thing we have the First Amendment here, if racist bigot’d morons can voice their hate. I can criticize and insult any and all religions that I so chose.

Hmm the first amendment. Its just before the right to have Bear Arms

Side note: I expected nothing less from the GOP than to not give a rats ass about any one that isn’t them.

In this case insulting these morons as much as possible is the right thing to do. They voted against treating fellow people with dignity. So screw them, um burn.

I don’t think so, because they were attempting to point out the absurdity of not supporting such a measure. In this case, rape wasn’t the punchline of the joke, but merely a detail of the story. The notion that people would actually “support” rape in a backdoor sense and the ridiculousness of it was the punchline/goal. So I think in this case the topic of rape can be used within a humorous vessel to make a valid point. The story made the opposing senators look like IDIOTS.

Comment on Obligatory Halloween Post by Dashaway

What was the costume? native american indian–headdress and all and other various “cultural” (i dunno a better word for it) costumes like “the mexican”–sombrero and all
Where did you see this costume in action? a bar in memphis
What makes this costume awesome (or unacceptable)? i think most cultural costumes are done in bad taste probably without much reflection
Did you say anything? If so, what did you say? nope, but someone in my group did–we were a bunch of rad critical race and gender wannabe theorists, so we were talking about that broadly the whole night. It was great nerdy fun!
