I really don't think the issue is THAT women breastfeed in public, it's HOW they breastfeed in public (boobs hanging out vs. more modesty or covering up).
Exactly, especially when they have people telling them to back off of their duties (lay off the jaywalkers), and citizens that are so sue-happy. I'm sure if SPD had known about the potential threat this guy posed, they would have taken steps to prevent the events of today.
I'm so glad Nina is ok, her howling broke my heart! Great job to ALL who helped rescue her. I have two bassets currently, but I've grown up with them all my life. They are the best dogs you could ever have, but they do have a tendancy to follow their noses and get themselves into situations they can't get out of.
KOMO, please keep doing articles like these, they make people feel good and it's a nice break from all the crime.
Yes, breastfeeding is a natural thing. You know what else is a natural thing? Sex. Yet there aren't any laws on the books protecting people who want to have sex at a restaurant, theater, store, etc. The issue doesn't seem to be that people want mothers to stop breastfeeding, it's WHERE they breastfeed and if they cover up or not. The argument that feeding my child is the most natural thing is in invalid argument when what they are asking for is WHERE they are allowed to do it. As a business owner, I should have the right to ask a customer to cover up if they are making other patrons uncomfortable. It's my business, and I should have the right to refuse service to someone.
I'd forgotten about these videos, love it!
I'm not necessarily talking about bullying either. A while back I was in line for a movie and a girl cut in line to stand with her friends. A few girls standing behind them started in on them calling them all names, threatening to kick their a**es, etc. I wouldn't really call that bullying, but a bunch of nasty words and threats being thrown about by girls that obviously had no respect for each other or their surroundings. I was shocked by the things they were saying to each other, and I'm only a 30 year old woman.
I agree, I don't see girls attacking each other physically either, but verbal assaults can be almost as nasty, and there is plenty of that going around even with so-called "good girls". I know I am generalizing, but these things are happening whether we see them or not.
Young girls now a days are so vicious and nasty, I hope they are charged as adults and get the book thrown at them. Kudos for the girl to fight back, I hope you recover swiftly.
If any money is paid out, it should go to Susan's parents. They have suffered more than anyone after all that they have been through.
