    Conservatives have been using the “think of the children line” to justify Draconian overeach for years. All while simultaneously doing everything in their power to take away programs that help children.

              30 years is a blink in time. You do realize laws don’t magically stop being potential issues after a few years right?

              The Patriot Act which was bipartisan was passed almost 30 years ago now (25 years ago) now.

              KOSA was introduced by a Dem.

      political parties aren’t real. Their only purpose is market segmentation.

      It doesn’t matter which teams win in sports, billionaires own all the leagues.
