Real purpose of abortions?

Uninformed/unaware about what?

Quote:I dislike how many people use/misuse the word "Ignorant". Oh, I am sooo with you on that. Another word that is tossed around with a thin grasp of it's actual meaning is "tolerance"

I agree it's not ignorant, it's stupid. Ignorant implies lacking the facts and coming to an incorrect conclusion because of that. Which further implies that had all the facts been available a different conclusion would have been reached. It implies the ability to reason. Stupid is more accurate. Stupid implies coming to an senseless conclusion in spite of the readily available facts to the contrary.I don't have the slightest fuckin' clue what we're talking about other that something some stupid bitch said but I don't know what stupidity fell like a turd out of her mouth.

Her dislike/hatred or whatever you want to call it, is ignorant of what she said about blacks, mentally ill and immigrants.You're not really making sense here and apparently don't understand what I am saying so I'm just going to leave it be. (see OldFolks' post above) What I see is a lack of understanding and sympathy. For once, try to put yourself in our place OK you're making assumptions here. Granted I'm not going feel the same as you do but it seems that you have this idea that I'm defending her or something. Why should I (or you) be upset over some old racist bag who spouted off crap 60-80 years ago? If someone were spouting that crap now, then you have every right to be upset.

one thing that I did want to mention is that I didn't actually know the history behind PP or Sanger aka nutjob.Thanks for adding to my knowledge base, always appreciated

lol and again. No, that's not what I said. I just recently found out WHO founded Planned Parenthood and their original intentions. That's the main reason I mentioned it because I had no idea. And just because the lady died 50 years ago doesn't mean her views died along with her. I'm pretty sure there are plenty of people who believed and probably carried out her original intentions.

You kind of come off as a cold and emotionless person sometimes... there's no warmth or friendliness in most things you say. At least none that I've seen. I always confuse you and Pete and then I realize well... one actually cares. And that's not to sound offensive but that's what I've noticed for a while. I just wish you were a little kinder or more understanding...

_I just wish you were a little kinder or more understanding... _
That's fine.. You don't know me... However, I'm not one to sugarcoat or make things rosy, nor do I care to spend too much time typing heartfelt responses.. I say what needs to be said and move on. Emotional I'm not.
-
No, I don't know you. And you don't know me. I'm not asking you to sugarcoat anything. Be real that's fine. I'm not asking for a retake of an Oprah episode. I'm just asking that you be a little kinder. I don't think you need emotions to be kind. But dang.
-
No she was responding to something I said.
-
I really don't see where I was exactly unkind in this thread. That's just your perception.

Cry me a river.

how 'bout if I fry you a liver (with onions)
-
Ooooo can you see my nose all scrunched up? My mom used to fry those up on weekends occasionally.. I tried it couple of times, but I couldn't fathom the smell and taste.
-
I wasn't a fan until I figured out how to cook it properly i.e. don't cook the shit out of it until all you have left is shoe leatherBut liver isn't for everyone, even if it's served with fava beans and a fine Chianti
-
I now like some foods that I absolutely hated when I was younger. Tastes change with age.. Maybe I should give it a try again.
-
You can't see how you act because you're used to it. How can you possibly see it? Only when someone points it out to you. And I'm speaking in general not this thread.But it's all cool. If that's just the way you are then mo powah to ya.
-
Well then BOOYAH!!! LOL

I like the fact that sdp pretty much always uses logic in his posts (when it's needed).
