DW Davis @DWDavis (25797) • United States 3 Jul 23

Years ago, I served on a private school commission, and one of the members, also a parent, wanted to ban the book Where the Wild Things Are by Maurice Sendak from his daughter's class reading list. His daughter was in sixth...

Never Takes A Holiday

celticeagle @celticeagle (189880) • Boise, Idaho 20 Nov 22

Many of us are about to enjoy some special time with family and a rest from work. But hard work, integrity, and our deep-seated ethics never take a holiday. We are who we are. We strive to do the very best that we can for...

I didn't realize that some of my friends on myLot are bigots.

DE @DaddyEvil (174495) • United States 12 Jan 22

Do you care about the color of your friend's hair? I don't notice skin color so don't know why anyone would single me out for the color of my hair. Calling me a "ginger" is the same as calling one of my black friends the "N" word....

The Right does have Bigots, but Liberalism is Based on Hate.

ParaTed2k @ParaTed2k (22940) • Sheboygan, Wisconsin 18 May 19

Everything about the modern Liberal agenda is based on hatred for people. They hold people down by discouraging people from learning English, they celebrate unemployment and food stamps but resent jobs. They set up Government...

Don't Tell Me You Are Against Hate,then Tell Me I'm a Hater if I Don't Hate the Right People.

ParaTed2k @ParaTed2k (22940) • Sheboygan, Wisconsin 15 May 19

Hate is the problem, it can never be the solution. If you make excuses for your hate then you can't point fingers at the haters, because you are one of them. If you blame others for your problems, guess what, you are no different...

Political Parties are Based on Who Members are Supposed to Hate

ParaTed2k @ParaTed2k (22940) • Sheboygan, Wisconsin 2 May 19

Another reason I'm not in any political party. Their based on who their members are supposed to hate. Newsflash: Hating "the rich" is as stupid and bigoted as hating "the poor". Most CEOs don't make millions, in fact, most are...

You can't punish one person for the actions of others!

flpoolbum @flpoolbum (2978) • United States 17 Apr 19

Every group has good people as well as bad ones. If you eliminated a group because of the terrible actions of one, there would be no humans left on Earth! Think about that. Do you want to be singled out and discriminated...

When people go too far.

marguicha @marguicha (230350) • Chile 26 Jun 18

Today I read something that shocked me. There is a campaign to take away from schools the books written by Laura Ingalls and in 1952 the ALSC changed the name of an award that had her name because she had written racist comments...

Racism Everywhere

redhotpogo @redhotpogo (4398) • United States 29 May 18

People that see racism everywhere are racists. What I mean by that is the negative effects of the American media, schools, government, etc constantly pushing the idea that a racist is right around every corner. If you're lead...

Linda Cann Pearson @LindaCPearson (2240) • United States 10 Nov 16

The election is over. I had so hoped that once this horrendous election came to a close, things would calm down a bit. Humanity would try and make a comeback. Sadly, things seem to be getting worse. Hatred, intolerance and...

Here at the office there are some gay office mates. In fact , one of my closest is a gay too. However, I like him because despite being gay, he is so unlike the others who comes to the office seeking so much attention, by greeting...

grandpa_lash @grandpa_lash (5225) • Australia 5 Sep 12

Tasmania, Australia's smallest and currently only "liberal" state, has just passed a gay marriage act. This is ironic, in that Tasmania was the last state, by some margin, to decriminalise homosexuality, but a welcome...

Charity, Greed, Money, "The Rich".

ParaTed2k @ParaTed2k (22940) • Sheboygan, Wisconsin 17 Dec 10

No matter how humanitarian and service oriented we might be, it takes money (and usually lots of it) to finance any charitable operation. I spent much of my adult life on service oriented jobs and activities. In doing so, I...

Estate Taxes

ParaTed2k @ParaTed2k (22940) • Sheboygan, Wisconsin 14 Dec 10

There is no form of taxation more unethical and dishonest than the estate tax. First of all, it is nothing more than robbing the dead. It proves that supporters of it truly believe that all property and money belong to the...
