What's most disgusting is that six years ago the student body elected mentally handicapped women to the prom royalty. It was a proud day for the community and school. Now look at this six years later. Tolerance is a two-edged sword.

Nothing wrong with tolerance when it is applied to those who, though thinking different than you, do not represent a group, ideology, or movement that is threatening to the whole.

Blacks and other races (simply because of their race) never did, other religions rooted in the same fundmanetal moral principles as were envisioned when this Republic was founded never did and do not. The actual sex of an individual does not. Etc., etc.

It is when these basic characteristics are distorted and perverted that you have problems...in other words, when they come away from the foundational moral principles and promote something that will destroy them.

Still, as long as they do not violate laws and harm others, they are to be tolerated...but a general swing by any signficant portion of society towards a perversion or distortion or corruption of the foundation...will destroy the Republic from within.

There are plenty of organizations that understand this and then use the enviro-whackos, the homosexuals, the abortion community, etc., etc. as their modern "useful idiots" to weaken our nation in the hopes of ultimately bringing it down. In my faith, there is a particular entity behind it all, confederated with evil tyrants of the day, who is pulling the strings and playing these people like a fiddle. He has always dealt in lies, corruption, compulsion, and the anti-thesis of liberty. Has from the begionning, from before the foundations of the world IMHO.

He does so today and it is sad to see it find root in what has been traditionally an all-American community like Murray, Utah.

It could well be just a stunt by an adolescent student boidy as a mild form of rebellion...but it is still sad to see IMHO there in Murray.
