So you're sure that she's not threatening to rape us if we don't vote?

Of course that's what she's trying to say. But there's hyperboles and then there's wacked out fear mongering.Durandal wrote:Jesus, calm down people. She's not saying that people who want rape decriminalized shouldn't vote; she's tacitly equating anti-abortion laws with rape of the female body and saying that if women don't get out there and vote Kerry, that's what Bush will try and do.
As a citizen, she's entitled to her opinon. As a celeb, she's got the money and fame to promote it.
That said,
, she could have said it better. As is, it makes her position look like shit. Her rough and tumble delievery reminds me of the eco nazi's.
They say, "the tree of liberty must be watered with the blood of tyrants and patriots." I suppose it never occurred to them that they are the tyrants, not the patriots. Those weapons are not being used to fight some kind of tyranny; they are bringing them to an event where people are getting together to talk. -Mike Wong
But as far as board culture in general, I do think that young male overaggression is a contributing factor to the general atmosphere of hostility. It's not SOS and the Mess throwing hand grenades all over the forum- Red

I sorta miss the days when celebrities used to ramble on about how by the year 2000 we'll have run out of clean freswhwater and the icecaps will have melted and we'll have to walk around outside in spacesuits because the ozone layer will be gone and there'll be no more trees...Knife wrote:

In other news, today was cold and rainy. Leaves are starting to fall and turn colors, around here too.

No offense, but today is the first of October. Around here, it IS fall. But then again......Utsanomiko wrote:

Didn't even begin to suggest it wasn't. Just pointing out that (bum bum buuuum) IN THE 21ST CENTURY... Ya might want to wear a jacket in October. And there's still trees.Knife wrote: No offense, but today is the first of October. Around here, it IS fall. But then again......
A hazard suit or oxygen tank's only required if you've got a crystal pyramid and a magnetic bracelet to go with it.

Wow just look at how many people here jumped to defend rape?
It's fairly obvious that she's talking to women, and telling them to get the fuck of the couch for being lazy morons who don't put their voice into the political arena.
