ReplyIts disturbing that some of the worst violators are a public school and a nursing home, where the diners being served have no choice but to eat there.

ReplyAmong my list of pet peeves:
Children in movies, babies in movies, and mom and dad in my movie while children are in another theater and when their movie is over they come in to get money from mom and dad who are, of course, sitting right in front of me.Movies are so loud, I don't think babies delicate ears should be exposed to the volume of these action movies. Young children shouldn't be exposed to the violence of the movie. And yes, if I am getting my night out with out my kids....the last thing I want is to be bothered by your kids...so Raven I like your husband very much.
We used to take our kids to the Drive in movie theater that was along I-85.
I confess I did ask "why was a baby in a movie theater at midnight?" when I heard that a baby was among the victims. It doesn't mean that anyone there was asking for this bad thing to happen. I just don't think it was a place for a baby to be. -

ReplyBrian's columns and the comments after it give me hope that Georgia is not lost to the extreme conservative right.
When I was in Savannah the Memorial on River Street says "Freedom from Want" among all the freedoms listed for America. There was actually a day in our history when we took pride in the idea that American's did not want. That we took care of our own. Today the theme seems to be, "I earned this and I don't want to pay for someone else." And this from the same people that claim America is a Christian nation.
I just want to add that it is so important that we get out and VOTE, and help someone else get to the polls too. I heard on the radio this morning that democrats out number republican's nationally by 7%. But Republicans have a higher percentage turnout at the polls.
Its all well and good to voice our opinions on line. But we aren't going to change anyone's mind. The only thing we can do is get out the vote, and prove them wrong by the success of the policies we are endorsing. -

I'm bothered by the fact that a 15 year old could need this pill....but not bothered that it is available for them if needed.
