re: He talks like that only because they were hateful first......in his eyes. I don't care. He's off the wall racist and violent, in the great tradition of Hitler and the KKK. He speaks softly and with reason but he is promoting the most destructive and vile terrorist act in human history. Forget about how he says it, concentrate on what he says. He is for nuking Mecca, he's promoting a Christian Muslim religious war. He's one sick puppy, and not worth your time. Well, I told him to take his mask off. I guess he did. I think its better for people to be honest rather than to present an image that's not real. The more I read about the school systems in this country, the more I see that people are raised very differently from region to region. Hollywood families are a liberal's perception of how life should be in the American family. I am beginning to see that many people do not believe in that concept. For this one class, I have to read a couple of teen blogs and then in a paper, relate it to what we're learning about a kid's psycho social development during adolescence. Well I was reading this one blog where the kid was from TN. It started by him saying he told his parents that he was gay. I thought whoa this is not good. Well his parents have confined him to his room until its time for him to go to a fundamentalist Christian camp that is designed to make gay kids into straight ones. He posted the rules of this program. Its unbelievable. They are only allowed to wear shorts one day a week. They are expected to go a church service three times per week. Girls can not have any leg exposed above the knee whether they are wearing a skirt or shorts. Boys can't wear sleeveless tees. Everyone's hair has to be real short. There is only certain colors they can wear. The rules and regulations are five or six pages long. With each paragraph of rules and regulations, there are excerpts from the Bible. Its unbelievable to me that parents would send their kids to a program like this. Its as if they are in the early part of the 20th century. They don't believe in any of the stuff that you and I might believe. A second blog was about this kid who was kicked out of a polygamist family in Utah. He had 30 brothers and sisters. It goes on and on.......for an example, some of the younger men are going after young girls because the older men will not let them go out with women their own age. This country is a pretty bizarre place. ted
