Because letting the majority decide the rights of the minority is a great idea.

Loudmouse, what about movies that portray violence? Horror films, for example. A movie like Halloween or Scream or any other film which involves the murder of innocents is NOT AT ALL DIFFERENT from cartoon drawings of illegal acts. Both are completely fictional, both focus on illegal acts. The only difference is that one gets millions of people into theaters and the other garners kneejerk reactions from people who can't separate fantasy from reality.

And who says he did anything of that sort? Maybe he had mother-son incest fantasies and drawn LEGAL porn of such situations was something he simply enjoyed. The guy was a creep, certainly, but there's no evidence yet that this was anything beyond spank material for him. And, again, it's legal.

How is that moronic logic? Homeless + see a home that nobody is using = problem solved. Just because it makes them a freeloader doesn't mean that it's not logical.

If you've been reading these comments, you'd see that the popular ones are condemning the bad cops and clearly stating that something needs to be done about them, not that 'all cops are pigs' or something along those lines. There are people stating that the whole SPD should start from a clean slate, and I have to agree, not because all the cops are bad apples, but because nothing's being done about them. The mayor, the police chief, and the other higher-ups are doing nothing about the problem of corruption, which will only make things worse in the long-run as the bad cops thrive over the honest ones.

Police officers are also paid well and receive pretty great benefits; it's not volunteer work. On the flip side, how many fishermen, loggers, pilots, etc could easily plant or threaten to plant evidence to get you arrested, admit to it, and likely get off with a slap on the wrist? How many garbage collectors could accidentally murder an innocent man and not face prison time?

Having a dangerous job doesn't mean you can get away with things like this. To go full geek and quote the Spider-Man comics, "With great power comes great responsibility". Because of the power that law enforcement officers wield, they should be held to a higher standard, not a lower one. Yes, I imagine it's an incredibly stressful job loaded with political bullsh*t, but nobody's forcing them to do it. For every scumbag cop like the one in this article, I'm sure there's one actual hero who'd be willing to take their place in the force.

The Phelps family is just in it for the tax breaks and the cash from lawsuits. When they get their asses kicked, they can sue the city for not protecting them.

Seriously, this is ridiculous. Most people out there have at least one fetish that others would find "gross", I guarantee. Many would even be considered taboo, like this one, but fantasy and reality are two different things. There are things I enjoy in fantasy that I have no desire to ever do or see in real-life. Cartoon porn/Hentai is one of those ways to indulge in a fantasy, and it's victimless. I just hate seeing people lump cartoons with actual child porn. The latter is criminal; a child is being exploited. The former is unrealistic and a figment of one's imagination. There is nobody being victimized, unless the cartoon is something like an actual child porn image run through a Photoshop filter or traced.

"the institution of marriage which until now has been served well by only including heterosexual couples" Kim Kardashian's marriage. Britney Spears' 55-hour wedding. The near-50% divorce rate among heterosexual couples in the U.S. Marriages can be religious, but they aren't by definition religious. Ancient Egyptian marriages were completely secular, and officiated by a scribe, for example. Can you give an actual basis for why there is no societal or moral benefit to homosexual marriage without referencing a holy book?

So? I don't like the thought of obese people making out or bumping uglies, but there's nothing inherently wrong with it. Legislating something "icky" that doesn't actually infringe upon any rights is just ridiculous.

Because the commenters on this site are twisted sadists. Check out some of the articles on child abuse and read some of the screwed-up tortures and sick snuff fantasies posters here have for sex offenders and other scum.

Oh, and even more ridiculous, thirteen of those seventeen were appointed rather than elected. Seven of those thirteen were appointed to take over for their deceased husbands. Sexism and racism are still rampant in our society, but just downplayed due to the wave of political correctness. A look on these boards should make it clear how many 'closet' bigots there are.
