"...drawing attention to a full figure is not what most women really do..."

I have seen teenagers with a slight bit of belly flab put rings in that flab and draw attention to it. Nothing could be more repugnant IMHO. This young lady, while flambouyant to an extreme, is not as bad as the belly-flab-rings. She will probably be a wonderful wife and mother for all I know. The dress is tacky but she has something to say. God bless her.

Oh thats just grose!

[diamond6]

Are those REAL photos or doctored?

[Missouri]

I like your picture better but I thought I'd throw this one in, too.

NICE PIC

Ted got all bases covered in that picture.

I never would have thought back in 1975 when I seen him in concert that he would become a political figure. A great defender of the 2nd Amendment.

Glad he's around and doing his thing for us.

Yeesh! Someone call the dog catcher, I think he missed one.

The chick in the Rebel Flag dress looks like you (well, not you, but you know what I mean) could take her home to Mama, walk her down the aisle, raise a bunch of kids with her, and happily live to a ripe old age with her by your side.

That other one looks like she needs major medical and psychological help. Stat.

[ArrogantBustard]

Her figure is remarkably similar to the attractive young lady on your profile page.

No, I don't mean the Daisy Duke picture.

That's me hehe. If I ever put on a dress like that, my mother would scream. I must be getting old :o)

There are few Constitutional Rights that extend into the classroom. Public School Students do Not have First, Second, Forth, or Fifth Amendment Rights in public schools.

Is that why we have public schools where Catholics and Jews are not allowed? < /sarcasm>

[ArrogantBustard]

I'm sure that your mother has impeccable taste ... and I'm just a crusty old @#$%. I think she looks just fine in that dress ... sort of reminds me of a young lady I met XX years ago. Especially the smile ...

I married that one.

Smartest thing I ever did.

[Polybius]

I think these RIGHTS were forfited at a place called Appomattox a few years back

Do you know who Fort Benning, Fort Lee, Fort Bragg and the USS Stonewall Jackson - SSBN-634 were named after?

[cyborg]

Like the other freeper said, she'd probably make a fine wife and mother and stay married to the same husband for years.

You know what would be the sweetest irony and blow minds all over America?
If she had WON the case and then had an AFRICAN AMERICAN student be her prom date!!!
Wonder what the liberals would say then.

Picture here.

[trussell]

Thank you. I appreciate that.

Looks like she put lots of work into it. The story said 4 years. Too bad she didn't get to attend.

I had my Confederate X tattoo'd right into a rose on my ankle. They'll never get, nor stop me from wearing mine.

I have mine tattoo'd into a rose on my shoulderblade.

[SouthernFreebird]

Awesome! I now know how you got your screen name. :-)

I love my tattoo, and don't you know there ain't many of those around. Mine will be seen all summer long as I display it proudly! LOL.
