Re: A bit better

Taz argues:

You know about the stereotype that minorities like black and latino are uneducated and backward? Sure, not all of them are like that, but voting results continue to tell us that 70% of them are like that. Is it still stereotype if its true?

Ah...............but:

Voting results continue to tell us that at least 70% of every possible sub-grouping of all the voters you can imagine...are... uneducated and backward...(if not closer to 90%). It's like complaining that 70% of the voters wear clothes that you don't like.

Is it still a "stereotype" that a good hefty 70% or more of all human beings wear clothes that you don't like?

Food for thought.

Re: The Law and what will happen

CS, getting a bit lost here, posits, among other things:

I doubt that young children in Tennesee need the public schools to provide them with information about homosexuality in order to remain healthy. Even granting that some might, I don't think the "certain percentage" of them that would makes the bill unreasonable.

What about when children should be warned about Catholic Priests and other figures in similar positions of power over your children - many of whom are homosexual?

Wait until the 5th grade? Nursery school? There is a lot of serious health damage being inflicted even to this day, some of it earlier than pre-school.

But I digress....
