Holy hell.

I'm wandering around LiveJournal looking for bookish icons so that I can ask the creators to crosspost to book_icons and thus expand our repetoire. Not that we need new posters so much, but. (Incidentally, if you can think of any authors with large fan bases whom I may have missed, please tell me)

And that's how I found this. The person who started that thread shouldn't've picked the fight, but.... *stares*

Dude.

Just... DUDE. *shakes head*

I never really believed that people got upset over Sesame Street teaching Spanish. Shows what I know, huh?

It's like seeing Jenna in twenty years. Blech.

(Jenna being the obnoxious conservative bint in my Soc class last year who felt that it was fine for her to be on welfare because she's a white woman....)

Impressive.

What. The. Fuck.

Holy crap, someone is a liiitttle screwed up.

[conuly]

A little?

Better for her to supervise her children than to be screaming for Sesame Street to change. A parent that thinks of which values they want to pass to their children.

Maybe you don't like them, but I see a pretty involved mother there, which is way better than the mother who dumps her kid in front of Sesame Street because it is educational and thinks her job is done.

And I think the Spanish on Sesame Street is a waste, not enough to really learn anything.

I do wish my children had more language options in school, too. But now they have none. I was happier when my daughter had ASL and Spanish, although I would have preferred a choice for languages. Unfortunately, I can't afford private school and what little language we teach her isn't enough.

[conuly]

Sure, she's involved - but complaining that kids shouldn't be learning Spanish, so Sesame Street is wrong?

Holy premenstrual Mother of God on a muffin.

I'm not going to fit a mold - no one does. I am against illegal immigration, contraception, pre-marital sex, homosexuality, and abortion. I sound like a hard-core Christian, eh? I grow, dry and smoke my own pot. I allow my kids to fight in the playground (not pick fights, but defend themselves in fights). I give my kids sips of beer and scotch (but not at the same time) when they ask (in moderation, of course). Doesn't sound too Christian, eh?

No, it sounds like you're a closed-minded cow who doesn't even have an excuse for being one. Congrats!

I was rather amused to find that my own morals are actually the exact opposite.

[woodface]

*blinks* So Sesame Street is evil but growing your own pot is good. And of course homosexuality is sin. *nods* Gotcha.

[xmorningxrosex.livejournal.com]

yeah, since when did giving your kids alcohol and growing pot in their presence become ok and a Spanish word of the day become not ok?

[scarletdemon.livejournal.com]

She reeks of troll. Or maybe I'm just trying to blot out the possibility that she is serious...

Nope, I think she is a troll/attention whore. I don't think she's real.

Pot is acceptable because God made it.

Beer is acceptable because God made yeast.

By the reasoning, isn't *everything* acceptable because if you take it back to its basic componants, God made them. But no, manmade drugs are sinful (like, erm... alcohol?)

I really love the bit where America belongs to Americans, not the world. And even better since it's surrounded by sentences pointing out that her own parents were immigrants.

[gingembre.livejournal.com]

I guess those gay bulls are manmade too...

...

I think that woman just broke my brain.

Please tell me she's a troll. Please?

So, let me see here. Helping people up is communist and everyone knows that communism has absolutely no redeeming qualities whatsoever. You can easily buy Tylenol in any drug store in the country, but man-made painkillers are morally wrong. Pot, on the other hand, despite being illegal, was made by God and I should really be using that for cramps. Homosexuality is evil and immigration is ruining this country (even if you're the child of immigrants). The Puritans had the right idea.

I'd ask what this woman was smoking, but she already told us. I think she's doing something else besides the pot, though because DAMN.

Just....wow.

[eofs.livejournal.com]

The Puritans... weren't they, dare I say it, immigrants?

::bangs head on table::
People think like this?!?! What surprised me the most is how strict she'll be on one subject and not-caring in another.
Omg, kids are being ruined by kitty cats!!!
And the in-vitro fertilization, what about people who physically can't have children any other way?
I thought I lived with a nutsy-cookoo mom until I read this...

[sicpuppy.livejournal.com]

I find her personally offensive because I smoke and support pot and she's giving pot users a bad name. People are so quick to now say 'oh, she smokes pot, THAT explains a lot'.
Well, no, it doesn't. It doesn't explain anything. This woman is insane, and would be so wether she smoked pot or not.
I think her views on homosexuality are just wrong wrong wrong, but I think the people who suddenly turned it all around and began to attack her for smoking pot were just as ignorant and narrow minded as she was. Don't hate her because she smokes pot, because millions of decent intelligent people do, hate her because she's a homophobic bitch!
