Tell Me AGAIN that Liberalism Is Not A Mental Illness!

Not much faith in the Constitution or rule of law there, LumRaiderFan.  If we made it through the Civil War, we can make it through anything. People thought that politicians were as looney then as we do now.  I don't believe we're doomed.  Change ain't easy, but it is the only constant, and we have the best system of government to deal with it.  That's why we out-innovate the rest of the world.  We adapt to change because of our diversity.  I like to compare it to an ecosystem. As long as ecosystems maintain their diversity, they remain healthy.  When something comes along that diminishes that, the system fails.  Consider what happened in the south when it went monoculture with cotton.  The soil would wear out in a few years, and the land was no longer any good.  We need diversity to thrive. 

It was just a jab at Kountzer...we're good, I think anyway.

Why stop at 3 genders?   Surely there are some other "victims" of our cruel society that need their own special characterization?

Three?  Which 3, he, she & it?  H-ll, I thought they had identified 19 or 20.  If not, they will.  Like any aggrieved group, there’s no end to demands & wants.  No end.

Gay magazine says Trump is racist for trying to stop the killing of gays

The Trump administration is set to launch a global campaign to decriminalize homosexuality in dozens of nations where anti-gay laws are still on the books,

 reported Monday. While on its surface, the move looks like an atypically benevolent decision by the Trump administration, the details of the campaign belie a different story. Rather than actually being about helping queer people around the world, the campaign looks more like another instance of the right using queer people as a pawn to amass power and enact its own agenda.



Some commentary.

I don’t see how any independent can get behind these people 

 

Let's all get behind the #DumpTrump movement by taking a dump outside your nearest government office. Extreme times require extreme measures. I'll be taking a dump live on Periscope with my fellow resistors outside the City of Seattle building on Virginia St this weekend

Mandated equality!!! Doesn't get any better than that!!  Rather than equal opportunity, the left values equal outcomes.

My guess is they caved to some parent group that felt excluded. Not justifying, but some blame for problems in a school district is borne by the parents, not just the “liberal” public education system.

I cant disagree with that.  However, this is symptomatic of the "I am a victim and it's somebody else's fault " theory going around.  Therefore, those in charge need to be "compassionate" and make the pain go away rather than doing it myself.  And I can tell you that this theory was NOT perpetuated by the left.

    • No doubt. It's definitely intriguing enough to watch how this all plays out...
    • We all know that each state has its own laws which can be very different, especially in endeavors like annexation or incorporation, so there is no telling what Louisiana law says. I don’t know but I doubt that there is a point of appeal for Baton Rouge to force St. George to be absorbed back into Baton Rouge by now giving them what they asked for years ago. “Oh, we lost? Well let’s just undo incorporation, ruled as legal by the Supreme Court (of LA)  by going back and giving them what they asked for”. There has to be a law allowing such an appeal. I think what I read about the lower court decisions which actually backed up Baton Rouge, they did not all rule that incorporation was illegal but that they did not think the city could have services up and running soon enough. So you have a court saying that sure you can split but only if we agree that you can provide services get enough. In Louisiana, who knows? I doubt that Texas has such a mechanism to allow a city to split, for example, could the west end of Beaumont say that they wish to make their own city against Beaumont’s objection? I doubt it. Certainly Beaumont could allow a city to be created as Port Arthur did with Bridge City and Taylor’s Landing. There is a huge difference in allowing and forcing which is what happened in Baton Rouge. Similar to the sometime discussed topic of Texas splitting off from the United States because they don’t like the way things are going, think if citizens in any city in the United States were allowed to create their own city, which could not be stopped by the parent city.  That could get interesting!! Don't like what is happening in the south side of Chicago? Just de-annex and create your own city!! Anyway, I thought that it is an interesting story when the capital city splits in half.   
    • Wasn't that 1st round loss last year? Also, during those previous 10 years I am pretty sure Jasper didn't go 2-58 in district play in the other 5 sports.
    • Ma'am, I don't think he said all Muslims were like that. If I'm reading this right, he's referencing the terrorist Muslims. You know, the ones who commit murder & have no regard for anyone who doesn't follow their jihadist beliefs...
    • Great playoff run, no doubt.  They did make the 3rd round(1 less) 4 of the previous 10 years, only one first round loss. 6 district championships and 4 second place.  The only 4 years Carthage was in the same district. So no, I'm not sure it does make sense.
