a serious problem and why should there be a law for 3% of the population. Freak! Any time anyone doesn't have allegiance to the beliefs on the adolescent group's leader (be it some sick little bully or GOP socilization of kids to hate gays) there is potential for bullying. Much more than 3%. I mean Cheney had a one percent doctrine on terrorism but when it is future democrats and future adult bullies (the future gop base) the gop plays politics.

Nothing is connected, except for what is theirs, so whatever is lost, NO MATTER WHAT IT IS, in their dog-eat-dog culture, it doesn't matter.

6. well at least we know he supports hard drug legalization |
|
too many of us smoke pot but i think that heroin, cocaine, lsd, mdma, ketamine etc. can all be legalized, along with rape and murder, simply because less than 3% of us do these things, come to think of it banking fraud too should be legalized, no where near 3% of the usa can do banking fraud

7. Well, because he's a GOP asshat, that's why. |
|
These are the same people that are millionaires and say brain surgical things like "Class Warfare never created a job".
The GOP is made up of predators of all kinds.

8. Because he doesn't have a daughter |

Any woman ( hell! A straight woman for that matter) knows for a FACT that bullying does not just happen to gay teenagers. Someone should send him a copy if Queen Bees and Wannabees by Rosaline Wiseman so he can see just how much bullying is part of the fabric of jr high school is for EVERY adolescent girl in America. It's not a minority - it's just amped up to a whole new level from slam books in the early / mid 1980's to entire web sites dedicated to 13 year old girls calling each other fat, ugly, sluts. My niece is in middle school in Northern NJ and rest assured: it happens to black, straight, 13 year old girls too. I'm thrilled we have the anti bullying law in NJ this year. Now the school doesn't have to deal with me and my sister screaming in their faces this year to do something - because Ayana was punched in the head and had her tray flipped on her in the cafeteria.
