Finger on the trigger or not, loaded or not, I'd think just about anyone would practically shit themselves having a gun pointed at them...especially if you don't know if it's loaded or not.

Re: Most people still are misinformed on health care......

Exactly. We get so bogged down in pointless, unnecessary paperwork that does nothing but create headaches and stress that it takes away from the positive experience of getting (hopefully) good health care. Glad your wife and baby are alright. :thumb: (I assume they are, right?) They are good to go,...

Re: Most people still are misinformed on health care......

It's as I saw somewhere--we don't need health care reform, we need insurance reform. Our health care, for the most part, is pretty sweet in this country (AFAIK). It's insurance bureaucracy that screws things up. Just my two cents. I agree, and I am seeing this mess first hand right now. My wife had...

Re: Abstinence Only Education Works Best: U of PA Study

It says right on the website that they promote conservative values, so I don't take much stock in this article.

It also looks like that same Heritage Foundation funded the study. Ya think that might have had something to do with the results?

There are thousands of serving gay persons = they are not prohibited from serving . They did not change their views, they do not have an "inability to serve..." so what is your point? If they tell, they can get kicked out. However, if you walk in and talk about banging your wife, no probl...

The problem is that if someone in the military admits or is found to be gay, they are kicked out and lose all their benefits. If it was anyone else, you'd all be screaming bloody murder. And anyone who equates homosexuality with pedophilia is pretty fucked in the head. Because heterosexual people NE...
