LGBT Equality, Civil Rights and Social Concerns

All wild animals and zoos hate humans, they find our human love contrived, manipulative, vacant of all feeling and all humans are simply worthless of all value. Even house pets feel trapped.. the bacteria in your eyebrows feel their human host is devoid. (again, cynical)

Passage of New Zealand marriage equality breaks out in song in parliament. This is beautiful

Jubilant elation, love it!!!!

This is so good ... U.S. Senator Bernie Sanders V. Sen. Rand Paul on keeping seniors from starving to death. Also featuring Al Franken.

Rand Paul, "When do we reach the height of absurdity?" Al Franken, "I think you already have."

Comment:
Doesn't that say it all...
Let me understand this,
"This seniors program's criteria is that it must save money?"
So if this program only saves lives... it is not worth it because it loses money? How is that pro life?

Since when is it wrong to invest the people's own tax money into the most vulnerable of our society?

So is there another program the republicans have to invest in the elderly? No solution but to ignorantly push this burden off on private agencies? Then why pay the government taxes if they do not feel it is right to even help the elderly or anyone else? If the private agencies were enough then there would be no hungry people already.

This tax money that the middle class people paid into a fund, this fund's purpose should reflect the middle class people's needs not the needs of only the top 1%. Consider, the top 1% is dodging much of their taxes.

I think this middle class tax money would be well spent on strengthening the IRS so it can prosecute 1% tax evaders to the fullest extent of the law.

Then Rand, maybe there would be money in the budget for "saving granny's life".

This is what 16 months of police killings in the U.S. looks like
http://theweek.com/articles/553856/what-16-months-police-killings-looks-like

Or maybe, just maybe, this is what 20 years of rap music looks like.

The same rap music that glorifies cop killers, mobsters, gangsters and disrespects women and encourages crimes of all stripes...

Is this wave of killing the inevitable response of both white and black police who battle mobsters created by the rap music industry?

You are what you eat and you become what you feed your mind upon...

While a simple religious book can create millions of devoutly religious fanatics a song book of mobster "scriptures" creates a culture with disrespect for police and this carnage is most likely the result.

Is it easier to blame the police for violence created by rappers?

I actually like the rap form of music, sometimes it is monotonous to me but it can be good music regardless. Once rap music crosses the line to gangster rap music I put my foot down.

Sometimes gangster rap seems funny on the outside but inside it has a sinister and antisocial message.

Police use violence way too much these days to the extent they become judge and executioner before opening arguments are even heard.

If society was more respectful of police and others I personally believe police would be more respectful of our rights too.

People litter the streets with cigarette butts and simply drop their food wrappers wherever they land.

People (black and white) are inconsiderate, ignorant, uncaring, unfeeling living oblivious to their surroundings.

Music should nurture and not steal life and love from others.

It is time these rap artists and the music industry face some consequences for their blight on society. Hitler faced the music for his hateful propaganda!

Instead of singing about another dead black man shot by a cop, sing about another dead man shot by "your" hateful propaganda music that convinced him it was okay to hate and perpetrate crime in the name of, music, of all things! Gangster rap seems like a joke on the surface but no one is laughing now.

Music is supposed to empower us to do great things, not entice us to become slime ball gangsters and devolve us into common thieves and robbers.

ISIS has adopted rap music, enough said?

ISIS will use rap music to create another generation of people marked for death.

People say, "Well gangster rap music is just songs..." consider, the Bible, Koran and Talmud are just books...

Thank you India for your draconian disregard for human rights!!!!

Mexico’s Supreme Court strikes down same-sex marriage ban
http://attitude.co.uk/mexicos-supreme-court-strikes-down-same-sex-marriage-ban/

YAY MEXICO!!!!

Yeah... as Bezmienov predicted long ago: demoralization of this country will continue...

So, for the record, how many genders we have so far?? ... I lost count... why do we even have man and ladies restrooms.

Now ... whenever someone inquire vogina instead of penis, or vice versa, we call him transgender... which restroom they should use? Hmm...

Seriously now, instead of sending those people for some treatment, which they desperately need, we glorifying them as they some kind of heroes.

Well, another aspect Mr Cobbler.
Not mentioning, that this disease of stupidity went viral (now other countries start legalizing gey marriage), we will have a dilemma. Are we going to discriminate against zoofilia, pedophilia, or incestuous relationships? What if those people rised up tomorrow and demend that they want to marry their mama, or 11 year old daughter, or their horse or dog??? And don't tell me any BS: that's different...
It is driven by exactly same motivations: they simply feel attraction to their cats or dogs or cows or immediate family member, instead, as normal people - to adults of oposite sex (same species!).
The same as geys have attraction to same sex.

Of course, you'll brush me of by calling this bigotry or what have you .

Why it is always left that is so stupid, namely Democrats.

NOTHING TO BE PROUD OF, COBBLER!

http://www.nizkor.org/features/fallacies/slippery-slope.html

I never mentioned abut gey marriage being a slipry slope. But it is much worse... apart of taking away a common sense, and diminishing gratification of word marriage, it also presents itself as a dilema in respect to other deviants.

You're the one around here that needs treatment homophobe!

I am proud of Mexico and their stance on human rights and ashamed of you!

Get help...

No, you didn't mention the slippery slope, you committed the slippery slope fallacy. I pointed it out. If you hate-mongering, self-righteous religious wingnuts had even the first scrap of evidence that your sky-daddy was real, you might deserve to be taken a little more seriously. As it is, it's wingnut-city for you and all your ilk.

Let's (the GOP) freak out over the mundane so they do not see us robbing them blind...
