I'd like to ask REID what, exactly, he means by "feeble-minded" people. What, exactly, do you mean my "feeble-minded" people?

But in its defense, Oregon still isn't in this century either. Medically speaking they're still in the 80s and I'm being generous with that. So, really it's typical that they would continue a deplorable idea long after it was denounced by nearly everyone else. But as if to knock me down, reality came around And without so much as a mere touch, cut me into little pieces |

My neighbors say I'm not an Oregonian. I'm, to them, 'that chick from Cali." we've been here since 2004. I guess after 20+ years (if we don't move back to California) we'll get our official Oregonian cards. Lmao. That said you're completely right!!!

Oh if I had a dollar for every time I've heard someone make a slur against anyone out of state (especially the cali stuff).. it gets so old to me and I fail to see why it's a problem. But haters gonna hate haha. I love the Oregon cards line, haha that's great. |

RE: Hobbitgirl - I Challenge You To A Debate On Eugenics
I bet I can win this debate with one name.
Ludwig van Beethoven. What if we could determine exactly how each possible child a person could have? what if some people's potential children all had some problems? Would it be better to prevent their birth? What if we had done this back in the day? We would be in a world without Beethoven. 2.5 billion seconds total
1.67 billion seconds conscious |
