My own act of silence is a protest against this particular act of silence.
I wonder when they will have blue jeans day to show their support or when they’ll want us to have our headlights on at night to show their support?
My son mentioned this at dinner tonight. He said how he was going to spend the day talking more than usual! We then had a discussion on what it was all about, etc. He didn’t sound real clear about it.
I did tell him that if the “silence” is to support them as people, and their free choice, and not to be bullied, etc. then that is okay. “Even so dad - like not talking for a day is going to change anything!” “Okay - point taken. It is just a “feel food” thing for some liberal to do.”
Regardless, if some guy you know is getting picked on for being gay, stupid, ugly, etc. - you need to step in and tell the other person to knock it off. (He knows several gay guys that are nice enough kids - just “weird”.)
On the other hand, if it is to show support for their choices, and you don’t support them - well, keep talking. But we agreed that it should be his normal amount and on his typical subjects. And if anyone gives him a hard time “Hey, this is who I am. I thought this day was about allowing kids to be who they are?”
“What - and this other stuff isn't?” (Luckily they are truly innocent young teens that think that normal sex is still gross and inapropropriate! (I'm pretty sure my older son doesn't think it is gross anymore, but it IS still inappropriate. I hope that continues until he is married.
As liberals used to say (when it suited them), "It's nobody's business what goes on in someone else's bedroom.". Now it seems like it has to be in our faces constantly.
If only the “love-that-cannot-shut-up-about-iself” would have a day of silence every day.
Meanwhile, PUBs of all kinds are telling us NOT to get involved in social issues. Even while LIBs continue to push THEIR social issues.
Homosexual unions not approved by voters - no problem, find a homosexual judge to overturn the vote.
Cap and trade not passed in Congress - no problem, get EPA to do an end-around.
TSA groping old ladies and little children - no problem, it’s for security. Meanwhile, Mohammedans get a pass.
On and on it goes, while PUBs cower in cowardice.
If they could STFU for a year I might have some sympathy for them. But I wouldn’t bet a wooden nickel that they can shut up for one day.
"Git'cher programs HEEah ... can't tell th'playas without a program"
Git'cher programs heeah ... "
How did things get so screwed up?
God must be shaking his head constantly these days wondering why he put so much work and thought into designing the human body (especially the fun parts!).
We don’t need an instruction book to figure out that the Penis (Part #A) is meant, by design, to fit into the Vagina (Part #B).
If it keeps the fags quiet for a day it’s a great idea.
I was going to say keeps their mouths shut, but hat would ruin the whole day for them when they couldn’t engage in sex.

If I had children in a government school they would be using their 1st Amendment right to free speech and speaking out against the school promoting perversion.....
Day of Silence, I wish. As the old joke goes: “The love that dare not speak its name, has become the love that won’t shut up.”
What’s with this sex on demand stuff? So now they want to be able to have sex whenever and with whomever they want at the drop of a hat....or they are a victim???
