Now the Declaration of Independence is racist?

First, I can't take this woman seriously when she says "only Caucasians was free". That sure doesn't sound like proper English to me but I'm a little picky about that so...moving on.

Second, if we stopped teaching everything that was offensive to someone the history of the world would disappear completely. Maybe they think that will make it all better? To pretend it never happened?

Our children are already growing up to be way less intelligent than previous generations because of the way they are treated, disciplined and the information that schools are allowed to teach. Heaven forbid we teach them about the past, even the bad parts, so they aren't doomed to repeat them.

The bathroom drama continues

A Facebook post from an unknown source is being shared online that says it's stupid to worry about a pedophile being in the bathroom with your daughter because they've been in the bathroom with your sons and you've never been worried about that.

False... They still can't grasp why people are against this. I don't give 2 $hits about a legit transgendered person using the bathroom of the gender they identify with. They are less than 1% of the population and the chances of anyone being in the bathroom with them is small.

Now, everyone read carefully:
Those against allowing this wide open bathroom policy are concerned about the legal ramifications that will arise when these pedophiles, who are not trans, are caught doing nefarious things in the bathroom of the opposite sex.

*There are more sexual predators than trans people. This law only helps those offenders find a legal way out of prosecution.

*Don't pretend this "fake" transgendered situation isn't happening. IT IS HAPPENING! Get your head out of the sand.

*The stores don't have a clear definition of what they are allowing. In recent videos some target employees stated it was OK for a man, dressed as a man, to use the women's bathroom, no questions asked. That's not what was intended when this mess was started.

We get it! You're different! Get over yourself!

I'm all for being proud of who you are but why is everyone so hellbent on flaunting everything to the point of being obnoxious? And why is it ok to announce you're proud to be certain things but not others?

Gay people walk around in flamboyant attire with rainbows and such with verbiage on their shirts that announce to the world that they are, in fact, gay but get upset when people don't want to interact with them.

Black people flaunt it by chanting black lives matter and reacting to injustice with riots, violence and threats but get pissed when people call them thugs.

If a white person wears a shirt that says proud to be white or speaks out for the rights of anyone, they'd be labeled racist. Or, radical Christian Republicans.

Everyone claims they want to be treated the same...but they don't. People want to be treated better than everyone else because they feel they deserve it more.

Let me just lay it out now... Nobody is better than anyone else based on the color of their skin or their sexual orientation. You become better than others by being a better person, educating yourself, being sympathetic to others and not forcing your beliefs on others.

What many of these folks don't realize is that they had way more respect from others before they ever started demanding it. The methods used are offensive, in many cases, and trampling on the rights of others is no way to exercise yours.

We get it. You're "different"! We all are in some way and we all face some sort of discrimination in our lives. Your constant demand for attention to the slights you experience only make people dislike you more.

Learn to advocate like adults and not spoiled brats that didn't get a chance to play in the sandbox.

Stop helping the predators

Haley Power had this to say on facebook.

I shared a bathroom with a transgender woman today. I had my 3 babies, a duffel sized diaper bag, 2 dirty diapers and 0 patience. I also had 0 handguns and my husband, a voting republican, was certainly not there. Do you know what ghastly things happened to me? She handed me my wipes when I dropped them off the table. She had the audacity to smile at me and tell me that my children are beautiful. Then she proceeded to act all nonchalant and walk in a stall to do her business. Crazy right! You know what didn't happen? I didn't get molested! I wasn't grabbed inappropriately, and I actually didn't feel scared! Using a bathroom at a gas station with no door makes me feel scared. Using a bathroom at a drive in movie theatre puts me in a compromising situation. Using the bathroom with a transgender woman (who has been victimized the better part of her life I am sure!) who APOLOGIZED TO ME FOR POTENTIALLY MAKING ME UNCOMFORTABLE didn't scare me at all, though? I have cried for her, to her, and about her all afternoon. People! Your wives and daughters aren't safe in a public restroom as it is! If you believe that criminals obey the law, then I am certain you're voting to abolish guns for the protection of your family, too? Right? Wait.... Use your common sense, stay alert, and be so cautious of your surroundings, but especially of your words. If you put your hate out into the world, it might just turn around and be your little boy who decides that he is a woman one day. Stop the hate!

My response is this: It's not the transgendered folks you have to be afraid of. It's those pretending to be, and there have been several stories of this happening. Will a law protect them from prosecution? Until someone can tell me how to tell them apart, I'm not going to be in favor of this.

I want to know what transgendered people were doing before the law. I'd imagine they were using whatever bathroom reflects the gender they identify with and nobody was the wiser. I'd like to know why this has become such a hot topic all of the sudden? The trangender population is tiny (less than 1% I believe) compared to the overall US population so I find it hard to believe that many trans people are even having issues with this.

Yes, criminals break laws so let's not make laws in their favor when they decide to prey upon us.

Ladies, let's learn some self respect

It sickens me that so many people have commented on this post  that girls should be able to dress how they want and the problem is that men need to be taught to control themselves? Seriously?

Yes, men have a responsibility to control their own urges and they should be taught to respect girls, women and other people. That being said, what do you expect to go through a man's head when faced with a female in a very skimpy or revealing outfit? Girls need to be taught SELF respect and stop dressing so provocatively.

If a man is a rapist, he's going to attack, no matter what you're wearing but seeing a woman dressed in a "scandalous" fashion could be the trigger that makes them attack. You don't know...is it worth your life, or your daughter's, because you think showing all your assets is attractive?

Not to mention that the article talks about school aged children. They have no business dressing with any skin showing while at school. It's a place to learn, not spring break. We've fallen so far from respectability because we want everyone to have freedom of expression. Well, all I can see are millions of kids expressing their desire to look like classless hookers.
