no proof that anything is being 'ignored'


the point isnt bringing down the number of killings, its equalizing the TREATMENT of killers,,,

INVESTIGATE<, is what was at hand

evidence cant be adequately collected when someone is killed, in just one or two hours or one or two days,,,,

but if one is killed with a gun in a public area and the other is holding the gun,,that warrants INVESTIGATION and not just taking the gunmans word,,,,

from the parents perspective,, this was being brushed off as a non incident

from a prosecutors perspective, PRESSURE kept them from ignoring the honest attempt to gather EVIDENCE to decide upon how to proceed

most christians I know would not be mad at someone for having an abortion under those circumstances,,,,


Im glad for him if he is finding peace,,,

'abuse' is a highly overused and oversimplified term in the forums, thats why I always almost put it in quotes,,,,

agreed, we became a nation where children were made 'equal' to adults but still given the 'protection' of children

mixed signals and mixed up kids...

only if the presumption is made that one is abusive,, which I did not assume

I said they are equally 'abusive', meaning one is no more or less abusive than the other but not necessitating that either is abusive

fifty years ago, we probably wouldnt have children behaving this way at school....

any limit placed upon someone regarding how they perceive their own existence, is equally 'abusive'

they dont have to show, the POLICE show in full force and 'negros' get arrested,,,,

I imagine that 'abuse' applies equally in the case of not allowing others to think beyond the options of 'one or the other' , black and white,,,,etc,,,

yeah, throwing books and things can get people hurt

physical restraint was probably the best way to reduce risk,,,as quickly as possible

this^

Id say if she was posing a danger to herself and others, restraining her was the right thing

and any physical restraint they would have used would have been criticized, but reasonable when logically thinking about the safety of the child and others

if it pertains to MY existence, MY answer should be sufficient,,,

try changing the view to a smaller percentage,,,(the % is in the lower right hand corner above the time in IE explorer)

I think you want me to pick what represents YOUR existence,,

I already answered what pertains to my own,,,

again, that is a physical attraction which is fleeting and CAN change

it is not an absolute, but society reinforces the idea to us that it is,,,so it becomes our 'reality' and our identity,,,,

when I Was younger , I Was not at all attracted to Asians, if society had had a label, lets say,,,afroeurosexual and encouraged me to define my identity by it,,,my repeated insistence to myself and others along with societies affirmation that that is what I Was would become more and more concreate and real with time

however, I have interacted with and been 'attracted' to Asians since then because I Refuse to define my identity in such shallow terms...


however, there is no such la label, and as I got older , I Realized stimulation and attraction take plce in the brain and therefore are not restricted to a physical package

I have developed 'sexual' attraction to people that I may otherwise not be 'attracted' to ,,,because of udnerstanding that,, but most people are too fearful to step out of their comfort zone of some 'absolute' attraction/identity to do so,,,

dont believe me? think of episodes on the talk shows where men have 'fallen' for other men they 'thought' were women,,,its in their head the 'package' required to develop attraction, but its not really the 'package' at all,,,,

you can RE Define attraction

society insists on making it only a physical reaction, people are fearful of redefining it and comfortable with that definition,, so they stay where they are comfortable,,,
