@HolyCanoley : No. That's just ordinary ignorance. I see it all over CNN, CNBC, CBS, ... The ones that get me are the libtards who think a degree confers some sort of expertise in all things, which it doesn't. My PhD is in math, but I was about a year away from a history/poli-sci degree, when I graduated (and econ and chemistry and physics), but I learned more history since LEAVING school than I ever learned in school.
Anyhoo, what you're witnessing is the lowest common denominator and it's actually a lot HIGHER than it was 10 or 20 or 30 years ago. The schools are worse than they ever were, but the silver lining to that cloud is all the people who are learning on their OWN. The lowest common denominator a couple decades ago didn't read much and didn't write at all. You're criticizing people who are expressing their thoughts in the written word.
You don't like their words, but we've come a long way in a pretty short time. Legacy media and legacy education are built for a technological and social landscape that no longer exist. Government, too, for that matter. You appear to be one who clings to the "old way" of central control and public harassment of people outside of your narrow liberal orthodoxy. We had a name for people like that, back in the '50s. We called them "McCarthyists." Before that, there were the Puritans, and before THAT, the Papists. Same game, different people, different time. Still the same.

Mike Hill : That's how it starts. It ends with "inconvenient." Roe-V-Wade is already outdated, because the restrictions it placed on abortions were based on early '70s medical science on viability of a fetus.
One day, I hope the debate will be over, because we learn how to put zygotes on ice, until the mom's ready to have a child. Or implant the fertilized egg in someone who WANTS a child, but can't. I think it's coming. Then we can turn the page on a very troubling and often hypocritical era. I'm a hypocrite, too, because I can't say "die" to a fetus and I can't tell a mother she has no right to take herself out of Darwin's game. I think she's really only hurting herself and her chance to participate in reproduction and passing on her genes.
And I don't even want to talk about the father in the equation, where his rights begin and end. But if I were thrust into such a situation, I'd want the mother to have the child and give it to someone who wants it. And if nobody else in the equation wanted it, I'd raise it, myself, however horrifying that might be for everyone else! LOL!
The only principled stand I could take on it was "I'm not gonna cause one."
