All these news bits about, for example this time, over the painfully obvious double standard makes me think that courts are setting a dangerous precedent.


Adult males that have sex with minors will be able to use court precendents of how women who have sex with minors get little or no jail time, and either reduce their sentences likewise in the future or sue the courts successfully.

I also wonder about the recent insult by Ms Clinton against blacks, would a Republican have gotten away with that, or for that matter a less well known Democrat?

I think that all these race specific or gender specific groups or pacs (political action parties) are in fact, racists or sexist as well. And technically, so is affirmative action. Perhaps, what happed with that black reporter that fabricated his stories is an example of the consequences of affirmative action. Which, is only about quotas racially motivated. That is not a good reason, either to higher blacks or treat them fairly. How are blacks treated fairly if they are only hired, because they are black?

One can argue about the double standards of women in the workplace, refering of course to the divergence of wages for similar jobs.

Its funny, that women seem to get away with more, like flirting, or revealing in public.

Ladies spend more for haircuts, understandable...if they have long hair, but so do some men. Are the prices reflective?

There are many many more, but i will leave it at these to think about for now.

I've always thought the NAACP was racist. Maybe it seved a purpose when it was first created, but now it's just racist. And so is Black History Month. Where's the Asian, Middle Eastern, European, Native American, and White History Month?

The mayor of new orleans said new orleans is going to be a chocolate city.

I wonder what would have happened if a white mayor had said he wanted to make his city a white city.

oh look we have 3333 members
