I don't see how a supreme court decision that changes the course of US politics as we know it is equivalent to some college kids running around a false petition to repeal the first amendment.
If your saying that the right is better about the 1st amendment, then you are woefully failing to show it.
The problem of college students is quite a bit more serious than you are making it out to be.
I used the example that you had already provided...
Quote:The entire higher education system is being corrupted by these students, with most political/cultural/humanities departments having been taken over already.
Ok let's move the goal posts and talk about this, entirely new topic... If you have any evidence for your claim please provide it and I'll consider it.
Quote:On the flip side, I could say the view of 4 unelected officials doesn't represent the majority republican view.
You could say that yes, but it would just be your opinion. But the majority of republicans elected the people who appointed those judges. Were they duped? Were those in the majority republican view protesting these appointments?
Quote:Democrats talk so much about how great they are for the poor. I'm not sure how much time people have spent listening to the other side of the isle, but the creation of the welfare state, the destruction of the family...
Pretty sure your over generalizing there. What do you mean by "destruction of the family" and how is the welfare state responsible for whatever you define it as?
Quote:...these are the things that have been keeping people poor. Democrats have made the poor dependent on the state, unable to get out of poverty and completely dependent on the checks they receive from the government.
So welfare programs created by democrats is what is keeping people poor and preventing them from getting out of poverty? As apposed to the financial collapse that forced something like 25 million plus more people to need SNAP. Not sure if they would have gotten out of the poverty they were just put in if SNAP didn't exist. I do know they would of had trouble feeding themselves.
Here is a good article about US welfare: http://www.poverties.org/us-welfare.html
