Close down the Catholic Church? Hah.
Look, I agree with you, and the church is full of crap on this, but the insults are unnecessary.
You're likely correct, but it still offends my purist sensibilities.
But then, I didn't like CENTCOM or NORAD either.
Just so you know, "y'all" is the proper contraction for "you all."
"Ya'll" is not a contraction of anything I can discover.
Rag Eaker for many things, if you must, but he's absolutely correct on "y'all."
Only Americans have to live by the rules. The bank the other day said with a smirk... "if you are illegal we don't need your SS number." What the hell is up with that!
So you say that illegal immigration is breaking the law like j-walking.
Is the fine for j-walking $5000.00???
Fines for littering in Washington State range from $95 for a fast-food wrapper, to $950 for a lit cigarette, to as much as $5,000 plus jail time for illegal dumping.
What does any of that have to do with your j-walking comparison?
PS: In Texas violent trespassers can be shot. Trespassers can be shot after dark to protect yourself or your property.
This ain't Washington State.
