“Isn’t it easier to use Latina for a female and Latino for a male. I thought that was standard.”

Of course that’s standard, and likely to remain so. I was just making fun of this ridiculous notion, using rfp1234’s reminder that X and Y may be used to refer to the sex chromosomes.

’ then I think that it really is a hate crime’

it is a hate crime when non democrat do something like this, even when it is not true. It is not the validity of the charge but the seriousness of the charge that makes it punishable. Only democrats can vilify and demonize others for who they are or for what they believe. This is the purgative of the left. How dare other students exercise their free speech rights.

I could go on but why bother.

So, bullying is now free speech? (Very dangerous activity) How would you react if a group of kids bullied your child for being a Trump supporter?

Put the shoe on the other foot. See what I'm saying?

(Please read "Animal Farm" And "1984" by George Orwell)

Winning the election comes with many responsibilities,one of which is to keep a level head and to bring justice, not revenge.

Groupthink is not OK.

Best wishes. Concentrate

Really? I disagree. Brush up on history. May Yahweh bless you with discernment.

You seem to want to make up facts and then lecture me on them. You must be a liberal with that attitude. No one said bullying is okay. Children saying ‘build the wall’ is protected free speech and is not bullying unless in is directed to a specific individual. this was not. She took offense at what was being stated which is a long way away from bullying. The left is bullying whomever at every chance they get including children, senior citizens, mothers with children on an airplane. Do you see what I am saying?

I have read both books and you are way off target.

Are you trying to claim some sort of responsibility of DJ Trump for this or other incidents? Are you blaming Hillary for the statements and actions of her supporters? If you recall, and they actually organized hateful events.

Maybe you should be looking at current events to see where you actually are and what is going on.

We are in an all out war for the survival of our civilization. We most definitely do need to bully, harass and intimidate the enemy. Time to fight back.

I understood that the child was singled out and shouted at, which is definitely not OK in my book, if the story is true.

In any case, perhaps I read it wrong.

FWIW, I am a pro-life, pro- 2nd Amendment libertarian, so I believe in protecting the innocent. Young children are usually pretty innocent of political stances.

But apparently, if the article is true it was, after her mother put it on Facebook (Damn Facebook!!) and it went viral.

See what I mean? Put yourself in the child's shoes.

Either way, she's innocent and didn't deserve this treatment. (If true)
