“:-/ no control over how many kids they have? you know i love you, but how dumb as a box of nails do you have to be not to know that if you open your legs and let someone squirt in your chances are you might get pregnant? are people THAT dumb and naive?”
Rob, you’d be shocked at teenagers these days…or maybe you wouldn’t be. Repeat after me: It won’t happen to me. The laws of nature, laws of society, and reality generally, all apply only to other people.
Arkady, excuse my impertinence, but where did you pick up that phrase?
Right on, bxgrl!
Dibs what are you looking at in the market????????
Legion- you get treated the way you treat us. You’re the first to point fingers at liberals or dems and accuse us of everything evil under the sun. Then you want the rest of us to go, oh-right!.You come in with an ultraconservative agenda and proceed to talk as if only you have all the information or all the accurate information. You accuse people on the left of wanting our society to fail- oh yeah- that goes over well. What do you expect? You shouldn’t be patting yourself on the back for being confrontational from the getgo. Etson shares many of your conservative views- He has no problem expressing himself and no one demonizes him. So get over yourself.
So what if planned parenthood started off that way? It’s what it does now that’s important. Same thing for your praise the Republican Party of Civil war days- they are some of the biggest racists today. (And I can back that up with facts).
I have agreed on some of your points- you have yet to agree on anyone else’s. SO in fact your idea seems to be, agree with me and you’re a reasonable soul. Disagree and you’re demonizing me.
Dibs – Yeah, but Gidget had a good innings.
And now, back to real estate! Here’s a total asshat question that will get lots of snarky responses, but it’s from a friend’s parents in suburban NJ. Their daughter (my friend’s sister) is about to sign a lease at a place on Lorimer between Stagg and Scholes. Thoughts? DH? Mopar?
“No rob- but unless you think married people should only have sex in order to have kids, what do you think happens? Do you have any concept of what the anti-abortionists, religious right and so-called pro-family people are teaching? Obviously you don’t. That makes you dumber than a box of hair.”
Pull out – or master the rhythm method.
Legion, different people were disagreeing with you about different things. I acknowledged that as you pointed out, there is also left wing propaganda, not just right wing, and I was suprised to learn about Sanger based on your suggestion. There’s not a party line here with you being chastized for being on the wrong side. There’s plenty of scuffles all the time.
