Stilton: Good heavens, everyone's disintegrating... What's your pain? Why? Head punching never works unless you're hitting a lawyer...
Punching does work sometimes. (Until you start breaking your fingers and knuckles, never get them set professionally, you get older and arthritis sets up. Then it sucks.)
The basis for this was watching a presidential candidate say that all members of a religion need to be banned from the country, then watching them get applauded.
Members of a religion that think it's A-okay to kill gay people, or people who get abortions, members of a religion with a rich history of raping and murdering people who disagree with them, using the excuse that a group only wants to kill people as a reason to ban them.
This country's big thing is freedom of religion. (Well, that and being able to have all the guns you want, of course.)
Put the ten commandments up everywhere, have prayer in schools, all that bullshit. But surprise surprise, what that really means is freedom for
OUR religion, not yours.

Casket of selfishness. It's got its flaws, but full-on escapism beats foaming at the mouth watching it all.
