Did they spike the fruit punch or something?

I've witnessed several historic events the last week or so.

1) The confederate flag being torn from it's masts.

This may seem symbolic for some, but the symbolism is deeply rooted in our nations history. I really never thought I'd see the day.

2) Marriage equality

The ENTIRE friggen country! Equality for all! The repubs will keep being dragged kicking, but they've not only lost the battle, they've lost the war on LGBTQ!

I thought I might see that during my lifetime, but I'm still shocked that THIS court did it! Thank you, Justice Kennedy!

Just ponder the history we are living. Twenty years from now it will seem unbelievable that this nation supported this bigotry and hate for so long.

I'm pretty happy today.

People should keep their guns at home

Isn't what they are so concerned about defending against the anarchist hordes?

I like Bern!

This election cycle, I have feelings of hope I haven't felt before. This to me seems like our final chance, and we need everyone but the teabag crowd to vote for Senator Bernard Sanders.

About Republicans

I'm talking about the federal politicians in the senate and house, not Republicans at large. These are the biggest, brashest liars in defense of corporate corruption and military expansion I've seen in my lifetime. They should be ashamed of what they've done the last 6 years.

All because our duly elected President is not WHITE!

What on earth is wrong with these people?

Gym Pulls Woman's Membership After She Complained About a Transgender Woman in Locker Room

http://www.people.com/article/planet-fitness-cancels-womans-membership-transgender?xid=outbrain_peoplenews

Cormier says the gym is being unfair to her. "I feel it's kind of one sided," she told Michigan Live, suggesting that the gym instead provide a third locker room for transgender people. "I feel like I am the one who is being punished."


You are, Yvette, you are!!

Rand Paul is a sexist fuck, with a seriously low respect for women.

I'm not here to post links to back up my opinion, it's totally available on the internets.

I saw 2 separate clips on MSNBC of him belittling, and degrading, one on the Today show with Savannah Guthrie.

I'm a Caucasion, and therefore have a view based on my personal experiences (I'm 60 yrs OLD).

#1 - I find that bigots are programmed by their parents and/or respected friends and contacts.
#2 - I believe that all human beings should have inalienable rights. Those rights include not being ostracized for having different sexual norms.
#3 - I believe we need to go back to a liberal education model.
#4 - I believe bigots and racists should be ineligible for federal office.
#5 - If I ever come face-2-face with Ted Nugent, he'd better be well armed. All i need is my fists. Can anyone say "douchebagel"?
