500 mothers will be seriously offended.

But one deviant won’t be offended.

Sounds reasonable to me.

England needs to send a few ships full of hard con lifers to the Australian outpost to get those Aussie heads straight.

How could this even remotely be seen as offensive? Everyone at some point had a real biologically female mother. If this is about offending poofters, and why would I think it isn’t, I must ask, when do we push back?

In case the biped humanoid who fills the role of ‘mother’ for some poor kids is a hirsute cross-dressing pervert complete with male plumbing.

Just a reminder folks, at the demise of the Soviet Union and all it political correctness, the first thing Mongolia did was to rediscover their heritage which the Soviets had stolen.

Cedarburg, Wisconsin 4th grade school has cancelled Mother’s Day as to exclusive, instead it will have a day some time in late May to honor teachers, family and friends ... in short, since every body is honored, nobody will be honored

This should appease the Muslim gangs.

You know...I actually laughed out loud when I saw this--not a cynical laugh, the laugh one gets from really funny slapstick comedy.

How hare-brained can these people get???

When Western Civilization finally collapses and human beings return to the mentality prevalent at its origins, as expressed in the Iliad and the Odyssey, for example, these nitwits will be locked up in straightjackets, that is, if straightjackets can be found in the rubble of the fall.

This is the story of mankind: Civilization rises, flowers, decays, and descends into madness. It falls into a dark age. Then civilization rises again. The same thing happens over and over again.

There are always nutcases, but civilizations fall when the nutcases outnumber everybody else.

Denying reality is insanity. Each human has or had a mother and a father. Nothing more to say about it.

Didn’t read the article. What kind of stall is this? I’m guessing not the one we flush in the “loo.”

Of all the former Brit colonies (including us), I’d have imagined that the Aussies would have given their most sincere middle finger to all this political correctness bull Obama.

Soon the only Death Penalty being enforced in this country will be if you offend somebody.

Today's England would be more likely to deport Tommy Robinson and Nigel Farage.

Thoughtcrime is far worse than any other crime on Airstrip One.

Thank you for the thoughtful reply.

Yes, it seems that the flowers are decaying and the geometrically growing number of loons are forcing us into a deep madness.

So for now, I will just try to stay here in our fragrant gardens and appreciate the spring's new growth in these acres of perennials.

Have a pleasant weekend.
