CDC: Suicide rate among U.S. girls soars

I'm sorry if I'm overreacting, but your post makes me sick. We are talking about suicide of PRETEEN girls here. Half of them probably don't even know what a politician is, much less what they are saying. Even worse is to take a serious psychological issue, and simply blame it on a political...

Suicide notes

To everyone who thinks someone who commits suicide is a pussy, I hope you are never around someone suicidal. One of the challenges of preventing suicide (or depression and things related to it) is that whenever someone seeks help, they often become isolated and shunned, which makes things worse...

Poll: Do all cultures (and their traditions) deserve respect?

Is that statement talking about whole cultures or individual practices of a culture? A culture as a whole will have strengths and weaknesses- its strengths deserve respect, and its weaknesses don't.

I know, when I made this account I never planned on posting. This is the only message board (out of about 3 or 4) that I ever post on. Had I known I would post, I would have went with a different name.

u suck retard

What I really wonder is if the message is suggesting that you suck retards, or that you are a retard and that you suck? EDIT: I'm not pissed at him! :D

A must read...

I think the article brings up an important issue. However, I think the problem is that everybody sees school as being a program where people have to work for a degree. In reality, school should be a system where people learn to utilize their inherent strengths and weaknesses. Gifted kids should...

NBC's 'To Catch a Predator' is sued for $105 mil. over man who killed himself as police arrived

The law about arresting people for thoughts/talk seems to have a gray area. Whenever someone online sees a picture of a 17 year old and says "I'd hit that", they are committing a crime and can be arrested for it? That or, when people trash talk in video games and use the term "rape", is that...

Confederate/Rebel flag

It represents the (non-existent) Confederate States of America. Now, what that symbolizes is a lot of things. I'd say it represents states believing that they have more power than the federal government, although most southerners put it up as a symbol of pride in their heritage. I'm not sure how...

Obama says Bush not solely to blame

Hillary is seen as representing the machine and the status quo. Obama at least tries to represent change (although, being a politician, he could be full of crap). Obama is just pointing out that a vote for Hillary is a vote for the same system we have had for the past 8 years. The real...

NBC's 'To Catch a Predator' is sued for $105 mil. over man who killed himself as police arrived

Well, if he didn't commit any crimes over the internet, then NBC is definitely at fault. After all, what would you do if police showed up so that you could be labeled a pedophile on television? Even if you aren't guilty, your neighbors wouldn't let you live a decent life anymore. No amount of...

Let's play the same ten songs we have

Listening to "hell's bells" on repeat is probably better than listening to the more modern stuff. I can't tell the difference between most emo bands. That or nickelback and linkin park over and over again. UGH. Anyways, try internet radio. http://www.pandora.com/ is a good site.

How Can the Republicans Win the White House in 2008?

The democrats *should* win, but I have a feeling they will mess it up. Heres how I see it happening: 1. The Dems nominate Hillary. 2. The Dems continue to play the game of "if you don't vote for her you're sexist", "vote for me because I'm not bush", and "If you don't vote for me you are an...

Who else is NOT voting these coming elections?

Why settle for a *lesser* evil? Vote Cthulhu! (If you don't get it, you are not nerdy enough) I'll be voting next election, although I have a feeling that I won't like whoever I end up voting for. Like someone else said, not voting just makes it look like apathy (rather than protest).
