No problem. What can you do? Not much.

What you can do is refuse to deal with this woman if she seeks to have any interaction with you at all.

Her neighbors should refuse to talk to her. If I ran a business, I’d do my best to see her take her business elsewhere.

She’s got every right to her beliefs. So do I.

On closer inspection, it does mention about his “parents,” but there’s no indication this way or that to say that he belongs to a hetero couple. QED

Well, since she’s two states over from me, I guess the “not dealing with her” takes care of itself ... but thanks for the thought.

Not too surprising since they’re all brainless inbred hicks and they do what there told.

He has the right to decline to say the pledge (I usually do myself, as my allegiance is to the Constitution, not a hunk of fabric). That doesn’t change the fact that he’s a totally lame gaywad.

Who are, Arkansawyers or the kids of screeching liberal “parents” (and I have never in my life used the term in so loose and academic a sense)?

Will said. “I really don’t feel

And there's the problem ... for all his pretense to "analyzing" things ... it all comes down to feelings.

My comments weren’t meant for you entirely. You know, communities with people like this in their midst should just shun them. It’s the community member’s right to associate or not with whom they desire.

When this woman winds up with zero friends, perhaps she’ll move out of the area.

“We raised him to be aware of what’s right, what’s wrong, and what’s fair” ... as THEY see it. A 10 year old does NOT understand these concepts! They are INSTRUCTED. I have a very intelligent almost 10 year old granddaughter and she could care less about all of this. This kid in Arkansa is being indoctrinated by his parents and they’re so proud that he’s following their instructions.

Gotta run folks, but thanks for the response. My first thread here — I feel a little less like a newbie :)

“I’ve always tried to analyze things because I want to be lawyer,” Will said. “I really don’t feel that there’s currently liberty and justice for all.”

THe LEFT will make sure he get FREE tuition - at YOUR expense! Just watch.

Bet Will will have a fun time on the playground after the kids start hearing what the adults at home have to say! I almost would bet that Will is not from the area and just moved in in the past few years?

While I agree with many posters that this boy’s position is undoubtedly influenced by a massive, expensive and incessant public-relations campaign, the law if firmly on his side, and has been used by conservatives and religious people to protect their rights.
In a 1943 Supreme Court ruling in favor of the petitioner who had been punished for refusing to say the Pledge of Allegiance, Justice Robert H. Jackson declared that “if there is any fixed star in our constellation, it is that no official, high or petty, can prescribe what shall be orthodox in politics, nationalism, religion, or other matters of opinion or force citizens to confess by word or act their faith therein.”
In other words, government may not interfere in the free exercise of religion, speech or association. I wish this thinking was more widespread today and I blame the liberals. No one does more to try to limit free speech than the gay-rights proponents.
