I like the smoking bans indoors but using bad science as the justification just allows people to dismiss science.

Where I live they want to make outdoor public spaces such as beaches and parks smoke free. Ridiculous but I am sure someone will pull out some half-baked clench report to say that ban is for the safety of the people.

I don't give a shit about the safety of it outside. What I do give a shit about is how fucking annoying it is if I'm trying to relax in a park, on the pier, etc. and instead of nature I smell a god damn cigarette.

Two people were found dead in grisly fashion just a few minutes from my parents' house (sounds like it could be a murder/suicide): http://www.wcvb.com/article/death-inves ... me/8953656

My bitchy sister-in-law (not the same one I talked about in the "RMers with Kids" thread!) sent a text to my wife all "Pft and they want to babysit, look at the neighborhood!"

My mother texted us all and said, "Check out the news! Cool!"

LOL @ all the conservatives who think that Milo is a saint who is being railroaded.

I guess political affiliation "trumps" all morality, wouldn't you say?

I was wondering about this on the way home. I guess these right wing, conservative assholes think pedophelia is an ok thing. That's it's ok for older men to molest young boys. What other conclusion is there the way they are defending him and his comments?
