Re: “The grilled chicken open line”
Wanna get really creeped out? Do a google image search for "gun and Bible."
Somewhere along the way you gun freaks have made religion, Christianity, and gun ownership into the same thing.
And no, I don't want your damned gun. Nobody does, not even the President. But some of you people have really perverted what it means to be religious and a Christian. Hopefully the image search will shake some of you out of your sleep.
I hope Wayne LaPierre gets even worse treatment than Nate Bell did by the good folks from New England.

From a gay man to the Sloan/Hendrix School Board members who "had concerns": Fuck you sons of bitches.
Re: “TGIF line is open”
What irritated me about Mrs. Harris is that, as far as I know, didn't really include Arkansas as the main geographical area for her books or the series on HBO.
Why does it have to be Louisiana? Why NOT Arkansas? Why can't Arkansas be the focus of hot, steamy, sexy, redneck horror stories? I know that some will say we aren't worth it, but if it's fiction, why can we be?
The next thing that really bothered me, is that she picked up and moved to TEXAS as soon as she could get out of Arkansas. Just like the Clintons, and everyone else. I saw this mentality show its head when Nate Bell made his comments during the Boston bombing. All kinds of tweets and facebook postings from people who were "born and raised in Arkansas but now live in _____, and I'm so embarrassed for my native state."
Well shit. You all picked up and left as soon as you could rather than stay and fight for change in Arkansas, so your opinion of your "native state" counts little to me. And so with Mrs. Harris. Except she couldn't even right a fictional account of hot, redneck sex in Arkansas.
End of Arkie ex-pat rant.
Re: “NBA player Jason Collins comes out”
Elwood:
I am in agreement with your assertion that wage and salary workers remain unprotected, but these workers cannot be discriminated against because of who they are. They cannot be fired for being Baptist or straight. Or black or handicapped. But they can be fired specifically for being Gay or Lesbian. And it's here many of us draw a difference.
Of course, I agree with 99% of your posts, as you know.
Re: “NBA player Jason Collins comes out”
I think I'm right in saying there is NO job protection for Gay and Lesbian people in Arkansas. They can be fired simply because an employer doesn't like them being Gay or Lesbian. Unless the employer states they are protected under a company's personnel policy.

Re: “Police arrest third man in car burglary that led to shooting”
I don't believe in charging the other men with the murder of one of their accomplices, just because he was shot by a cop. So I guess I'm with Sound on this one. Now, had one of the three murdered someone, then yes, charge'em all with murder. But my mind could be changed on this one, if someone can show me another way to look at it that makes my moral judgement tingle.
Do I care that Kenzell got killed? Nope. Pull a gun and shoot at a cop--you get what you deserve. Street thugs are killed way more than cops are, because they can't hit anything they aim at, because they turn the gun sideways (like in music videos) when they shoot. Idiots.

Re: “'Powder, lead, walnut, brass and steel': Nate Bell's tribute to weapons”
If there is no police record of this incident, I call BULLSHIT!
