Whatever excuses you all can think of to justify it. The fact that you need to justify it makes it wrong. People make choices and have to live with them. I'm sorry you all can't see that. I'm also sorry that personal responsibility has become such an alien concept. It's sad really.

Let the parents decide. If they're mad about it, why do they let their kid have one? It reminds me of the time when parents of obese kids protested McDonalds, but still ate there several times a week.

Funny. The majority of people I know aren't sexist, Islamaphobic, homophobic, or racist. Usually those are in the minority. I don't believe being in the majority gives me the right to do whatever I want, but believe me, I will defend them. I won't give them up just because somebody decides to get offended. And most of your examples were fighting for the right reasons. Discrimination was fought against because it was wrong and actually did harm to people. When people get offended, usually what they're getting so mad about was just a form of free expression and not meant to offend anyone. Eventually, the freedom of speech will turn into the freedom "from" speech, the freedom of religion will turn into freedom from religion, etc.

Half of the "facts" I see here are either untrue or not even directly associated with anything Obama has done. The economy hasn't recovered. The sharp decrease in unemployment was due to the number of people who stopped getting unemployment benefits after looking for employment for years. Note: you are only counted as unemployed if you are still actively looking for a job. How did he single-handedly save the U.S. auto industry? The deaths of the 22 Al Queda Heads were the cause of the hard-working men and women in the military. Not sure how he's even indirectly responsible for that. How has he improved relations with other countries? Afghanistan still hates us (probably because we're invading them, but no one wants to talk about that war), Iraq hates us more than ever since we left, as soon as we got out of Iraq, Iran decides to start talking about a possible conflict with the U.S, and Israel is starting to hate us as a direct result from Obama's foreign policy on Israel. He isn't a small spender. Fact: he has spent more money in 3 years than any other president has in 8 (that counts inflation). And just to top it off, he's spent more money on vacations than any other president. I do believe his last Hawaiin vacation costs $4 million, 99.7% of it being taxpayer dollars. Do your research man. He's terrible at his job

Osama was caught because of a ten-year investigation, many hard-working people in the military, and Seal Team 6. Obama just did what anyone else would've done and signed the assassination papers.

It's funny how everyone blames the Republicans for this recession. "Blame the Republicans. It's really their fault." That just shows how uneducated everyone in his fan-club is. The simple fact is that every single one of the last presidents saw the recession coming, but no one really knew how to stop it. Now that it's here, Obama doesn't know how to fix it. The fact is that the fault crosses party lines. However, Obama had Congress in the palm of his hand for two years and they did everything he wanted. They authorized bailout after bailout, and let him spend as much as he pleased. Now common sense can tell you that when you don't have any money, you need to stop spending as much. The Republicans won't agree with him because he spends way too much and won't negotiate. Negotiating actually involves BOTH parties giving up something they want so that both parties can get something they do want.

It's funny how people have abortions just because they can't be responsible enough to use protection. If the person was raped or could die from the pregnancy, I can understand. But honestly, people should never get an abortion if they are just too irresponsible. Makes me sick

My school used to do that all the time for perfect attendance. We would get $25 for every quarter we had perfect attendance. It worked well, but didn't affect grades at all. People would just come to school and sit there like always. It would probably be wiser to give the kids making good grades a monetary reward instead of the ones who just sit there

Woman on PMS+assault rifle=unstoppable. Just kidding...a little. But in all seriousness, women want to be treated equally to men. I say let them do it.

wow. Very tolerant and intelligent of you to call someone who doesn't believe what you do stupid. People like you are ruining America from the inside out. You can't stand for someone to believe in something different, so you call them ignorant. This site is for intelligent conversations, not god-bashing. Go somewhere else for that
