Freeper madness from school
This is something one of the Ramapo College Republicans posted on my school's pipeline.

"Now, let me tell you of a little personal story of mine. On Friday, my FYS class had to attend the "Sexual Panal," if you've had it, I'm sure you remeber it was about dealing with Gay Americans. Now...this girl in my class...said to professor in our disscusion, that "...I...am not confortable with the idea of two people of the same gender in marriage..."

Instead of trying to understand her point-of-view, which I most definately agree with, our Professor struck her belifs down, and tried to force her in accepting a behavior she already did not aprove of; as well as try to change the subject from gay rights to civil rights, the girl is an African American you see."

I cannot believe such hatred is so rampant at my college. You see, I believe that he was right to bring up the civil rights issue because it has many parallels to the gay rights movement today. Back in the day, white people used to feel uncomfortable about blacks, and we see the same with heteros against homosexuals.

1. Why Is Bush So Interested In Introducing Theocracy
as the law of the land in America? That's why most of our ancestors left Europe.

2. Power. It's all about power. People are easily manipulated through
religion. You control people, you have the power.

3. So True
Even the founding fathers admitted they invoked religion as a way to control the masses and for no other purposes. Bush has added one additional Nazi item to the agenda "He will use fear and religion to control the masses". While he's redistributing the country's wealth from the working class to the global elitists.

4. I'm not going to mention the horrible grammar, but...
I was rather pleased at this Freeper's use of the term "African-American." Aren't Freepers supposed to hate the whole PC thing?

5. Trust me, they do
In fact, back on November 2, the Ramapo College Republicans actually chalked the words "Kerry is a fag" on the sidewalk.

6. You should transfer to William Paterson
Nobody here gives a shit about politics. It's not the most stimulating environment, but at least you won't have to put up with stupidity like that.
