Monster? Oh, please.  [ Fri Mar 18 2011 1:05 PM ]

Give me a break.

That's a good point, and you're right.  [ Fri Mar 11 2011 8:01 AM ]

I haven't seen one or heard about one in a long time.

Other cities have it.  [ Tue Jan 11 2011 1:17 PM ]

We didn't make it up. I'm not sure if we're arguing that it's a stupid idea, that the public is too stupid to use it properly, that it's a good idea but poorly executed, that it's unnecessary compared to other glaring needs, or just that there's a mean lady running it.

I support the right to express ideas  [ Wed Nov 10 2010 10:16 PM ]

but I question the motive in this case. If we support free speech, must we also broadcast pornography? If you own a sex shop, I can see the motive.

But pornography's taboo is it's power, and there's nothing less sexy than making it commonplace. Perhaps the Muslims have it right: taboos create sexiness. I'd hate to live in a nudist, free-sex society where everyone was at a loss to think of something dirty. It wouldn't make life better. Stop telling our kids Santa is a lie.

That having been said, I totally support gay marriage. That's not a sexual issue, and it's not about taboos. That's respect.

The city is right on the Pornotopia issue, from a public policy standpoint. We elect officials to make decisions for the good of society. They're not banning pornography. They're preventing some people with a pecuniary interest from shoving pornography in everybody's face for publicity, which is the right decision. The indignant porn people win in any scenario with the press they get. In fact, the bottom line is probably better just crying about being stifled. Win win, and it's still in everyone's face.

They have nothing to do and nowhere to go  [ Fri Oct 15 2010 12:47 PM ]

because they are homeless. Get it?

I talked to someone who observed the incident in question.  [ Wed Sep 15 2010 11:07 PM ]

He said the police were entirely in the right. The woman was violent. The impromptu "cop watch" blocked traffic and complicated the whole situation. I urged him to write a letter. Watch for it.

I agree about one thing.  [ Thu Aug 19 2010 1:44 PM ]

Playing the grammar card is a cheap shot. It's never classy and it's never on topic.

Listen, people.  [ Thu Aug 12 2010 11:15 AM ]

You don't deserve citizenship for being a nice person. There are lots of nice people in Mexico that can keep on being nice people in Mexico.

thank god  [ Thu Jul 29 2010 11:21 AM ]

I thought you were going to say it's all made up.

If your partner starts talking about chips in his head  [ Mon Jul 19 2010 7:41 PM ]
