Teen who was sentence 10 years in prison for consentual sex to be released

"As a conservative, I am only trying to protect what I have worked
hard to gain. "


At what cost???? At the cost of peoples' lives and livelihoods? Conservatives don't care about minorities...they don't care about the elderly, the infirmed and the ill...they don't care about the "inner city" (code for "black people)...they could care less whether or not they had adequate nutrition, quality education, healthcare, resources, opportunity...no, all you care about is protecting what you have "worked hard to gain"....Stuff...except when a hurricane comes and takes "all" your "stuff" away, and your insurance company says you're not covered for flood insurance, and you are faced with "life and death" as FEMA gives you the "run around"...No, not until it hits "home" do you care about any body else...which is why I say, all of you can just drop .....and it would be a better world. Cheers

Here's a hint, "developmental disability" doesn't mean "bad".

No, treating homosexuality is harmful. You can't suppress sex to that level.

No, and I have said nothing about Homosexuals being bad, neither do I think their sexual orientation makes them bad. But, if the theory is correct then then homosexuality would be more accurately viewed on the same level as Autism, or any other developmental disability.

Sexual repression is cruel and nothing I would advocate, again I think you're jumping to conclusions about what I'm saying. When I said treatment I referred more to a hormonal treatment during adolescence aimed at correcting any developmental deficiencies. Much as we strive to one day cure Autism before it afflicts a child. Of course such treatments must be scrutinized for safety in the same manner vaccines are. I'd rather have a healthy gay son then a straight son that develops Leukemia at age 13.

But I'm getting ahead of myself, at this point we need further research.

Again, autism is not comparable to homosexuality.

by today's logic you're quite right. But if you knew for a fact that it was a developmental disability of the brain wouldn't you have to change the way you thought about it?

could you disregard that knowledge for no other reason then it's inconvenient to your views? Research and education constantly changes the way we see everything, why would human sexuality be any different?

wow look at all the stereotyping

Nazi science had a jump to conclusions stance based on false pretenses

I have a "let's learn more about this and then not be afraid to challenge the way we think as we learn" mentality

you also paint me as some young earth christian (volunteer is going to have a heart attack when he reads that). I assure you I am very up to date and in agreeance with radio-carbon dating, the actual age of the earth, and the vast differences between biblical explinations and natural sciences.

I'm also Agnostic, for the record

my, the things that fear closes our minds to, eh aaron?

Aaron - Among other things, I used to own a clothing manufacturing company. A hostile young black man came to interview for a job and was rejected for his attitude. When he shouted racism, I took into our workroom and pointed out the staff which numbered African-Americans, Mexican-Americans, one former middle eastern cabbie, a former hooker (one of the best pattern makers in SoCal) and a dwarf that was one of my seamstresses. Once he looked around and saw my commitment to diversity he apologized for insulting me. Part of my "stuff" was my staff and their families. They all earned more from me than they could have elsewhere and all shared in the profits. In return, I demanded loyalty and hard work. When I sold the company, they all got bonuses and several months to relocate. That's my story. What have you done other that shout from the rafters?

Like liberals don't seek to protect what they have worked hard to gain.

yes yes you cornered me I'm quite obviously racist

which is really a bummer because my half Jew/ half Korean best friend is gonna disown me when he finds out.

How to become a Liberal

1. Set up a standard for morality which mirrors that which your ID wants to do

2. Fiercely defend it providing no actual logical reason for what you believe

3. Slander anyone who disagrees with baseless accusations of Racism, intolerance, or sexism.

worked in the Duke case

works here

congrats, you've officially hit just below the "Al Sharpton" mark on the "crazy liberal" board. The place we affectionately call the "Rosie Square"

if you don't agree that's fine, but read the forum rules, no personal attacks, that means you

Personal attacks? I'm gay. You alluded to the fact, by offering up obviously "skewed" data from some waste-of-tax-dollars-right-wing research project, insinuating that I, and others like me, suffered from a "developmental disorder" (code: mental illness)...so, you can spin it anyway you like, but your assertions, by proxy, was in essence, the 'throwing of the gauntlet"...

I'm fairly certain it's a fair research product.

What would make you think that? Just because OSU did it...look at the waste and research that goes on in the government...do you think it's credible and justified, just because the government is doing it, and with little oversight, but plenty of agendi?

A waste of tax money, certainly, but I don't think they were lying.
What is your basis for thinking that? Do you know them to be a reputable entity? Look at the law students that came out of Jerry Falwell's University law school. Unqualified, incompetant, yet wound up with influential jobs within the DOJ, and wreaked havoc.

What I think they're doing is tricking people. When people see "developmental disorder" their brain flashes *BAD!* *BAD!* *BAD!* *BAD!* *BAD*.
No, when people see "developmental disorder", they see red, and think about kicking ***, and wonder where people get off saying crap, and getting away with it

It just means you didn't develop like most people.
And you did? And what is "most people"? And what is "develop"?
If that isn't inflammatory....

And here's a hint to everyone, that doesn't change a damned thing. It doesn't matter if we find it it IS a choice (I know it's not, but go with me), we should still give them the same freedoms we should all be given. They're people.

OK, that's all well and nice...but each of those persons you listed, were not there because of any "charity" on your part; they were there because they could do the job you needed done, and undoubtably, because they did it well. So, don't make it out like you're some Mother Theresa, and deserving of some accolade, when profit was your bottom line.
And who said you shouldn't have standards for "hiring"?

My issue was with your statement, ""As a conservative, I am only trying to protect what I have worked
hard to gain. "

Like liberals don't seek to protect what they have worked hard to gain.
It's like you bleed, other folks bleed...there is no distinction. How does that break down into camps? Hmmm?
And "shout from the rafters"....I was just calling it like it t. i. z.

Go to work and make something of yourself. Hire the downtrodden, lend a hand. I have. Have you? I think not. Friggin whiners. I hate 'em.

Oh, Kumbaya....isn't that sweet....we're people! As if we need you to say that. Thank you very much.

Some of them were exactly there because of CHARITY on my part. I took people that no one else wanted and gave them a chance. Get your head out of your ass. I am not the problem, I have supplied the answer. And, anyone that does not work hard to protect what they have EARNED and loses it through government supported mismanagement that they backed, is an idiot. Go to work and make something of yourself. Hire the downtrodden, lend a hand. I have. Have you? I think not. Friggin whiners. I hate 'em.

+1

there is no worse product of Americas success then those who have done nothing and bemoan those who's hard work has paid off.

Agreed.
So when are you and One Man Clan going to do some "hard work"?
Key phrase: "paid off"....selfish, arrogant...you know the rest.
