  1. Given that at least one Justices is already floating the idea of controlling the right to access contraception, along with removing same sex marriage, I think you are foolish for thinking it couldn't happen.
  2. No way would conversation, empathy, compassion or compromise be indulged in by men! War is the only answer!
  3. No doubt starting with the freedom of men to kill women who've lost the "man's" baby, whether through miscarriage or abortion.
  4. Ah, so death threats and intimidation is ok if you agree with the political viewpoint of the agressor. Do you also agree with this one, posted by a member here: MostAll demonrats actually should get punchedshot. For the record, I do not excuse death threats from anyone, even the one made against Kavanaugh.
  5. Convoy protesters threatened Ottawa's Chief of Police - was that intimidation ok with you?
  6. As long as government is calling for reducing our reliance on fossil fuels, they need to provide the infrastructure to support it.
  7. Men will regret this decision when they have to pay child support for children neither they nor the woman wanted, but were forced to give birth to. Expect the children in care to skyrocket, costing governments millions annually.
  8. I'm ok with reconciliation and reparation. Good for us, as a country, making some effort to make things right. So what would you do? Give them a few blankets? Dismiss the past, and call them down because you don't understand what our 'intervention' into their lives has done to them? Assume they drink and use drugs because they're just bad people? Assume they stay on reserve because it's such easy living?
  9. The last residential school closed in 1996. Indigenous women were sterilized, without consent, until 1976. Thousands of children were taken from their parents, families and communities in the 60s. Native people were not even allowed to leave the reserve, unless they had a pass, until the 1950s. Reconciliation isn't just about land taken through treachery, but for all the ways in which the Canadian government oppressed indigenous people for generations, up to the present.
  10. Yes. I remember a conversation I had with a guy who's lake cabin (not on Babine Lake) is part of treaty negotiations. He lamented the time and money he'd put into the Crown leased property. Thirty years it had been in his family, and now he might lose it. I couldn't help but think of the FN who'd been on the land for 1000's of years, and lost it through treachery by the Canadian Government.
  11. That six year old grows up to be a teenager. If his parents have taught him that LGBTQ+ are disgusting, evil and unacceptable, he or she will support or help with the beating up of those people. Parent's attitudes matter. Your attitude toward LGBTQ+ is full of hate that will be passed on to your children. And if one of those children happens to be different, they may be the one who commits suicide out of shame and self-hatred.
  12. Teachers are not weirdos. It's attitudes like yours that teach kids to beat up someone who is anything but binary.
  13. What about those kids who know they are different? They don't get to be kids, they get to be freaks because their "kind" can't be talked about- except in the context of being unacceptable.
  14. The Republican extremists: Rino Hunting.

     

    1. OftenWrong

      OftenWrong

      And? What do we conclude from this

  15. If you don't like someone's opinion, just move on.
  16. You call right wing propaganda sites and people calling themselves a doctor on Twitter "research"?? Funny how you ignore all the abuse she dishes out; she gets what she gives.
  17. As do you when stats and studies about the damage caused by Covid has been presented to you. You think you are different, you aren't.
  18. And, by the same token, nobody here has ever said that they don't care about adverse effects from the vaccine, or about under 40s dying. Yet, you just accused several people of that.
  19. From another perspective, you don't give a flying F about the people who die from Covid because they're old, fat, immunocompromised, or didn't take their vitamins.
