The general principle behind every right in the world is that it comes with obligations too (eg. you have a right to own guns but you also have an obligation to use them safely. You have a right to see your child enter the world but you also have an obligation towards that child's welfare, time wise, energy wise and financially after it's born). If you're unwilling or unable to shoulder the obligations you should relinquish your right. This goes for both baby mumma and baby daddy.

Unexpectedly delicious sometimes to one who is not expecting it.

You know, when I posted that abortion thing, I never stated my position on abortion in itself. Also, if my dad had his way, I would have been aborted. My mom was the one who said no, and took care of me. Women ultimately bear the burden of that choice, regardless as to whether or not it can be considered ethical. I am personally pro choice, because that way those people who want the option of abortion can have it, and those who do not like it are not exactly required to participate. There will never be a good answer to the question, but this is how I feel.

Public schooling in America is a conveyer belt, designed to produce easily led, minimally functional, subservient sheep, unable to have independent or politically incorrect thoughts and who are no threat to the ruling class. And if I ever expressed this sentiment in a graded essay, I would receive an F. I’m trapped on a treadmill, running a "Race to Nowhere".

How I'd love to see a commercial showing how a school-blasting kid is created... "Who's the monster? Him - or the people who tortured him until he snapped?" The mean girls, the jock bullies, the uncaring teachers, the cruel parents... EVERY ONE OF THEM should be accountable for the actions of the time bomb they created and finally detonated. :x

That sounds like a storyline for a Carrie rip-off. :roll:

How could I forget that classic movie? (No need to be sarcastic about it!)

Now, how does one condense that message into 30 relevant seconds for primetime TV...? Unfortunately, this world respects and rewards aggressive "go-getter" as*holes.
