Saying in Jim Mora voice "Mentor....Don't talk about Mentor," Michael Vick is a scum bag.

No people are simple! That is an outrageous statement and it comes across as misguided and arrogant.

O.K, I guess then our homicide rate should be lower??? Nope its about five times higher per 100000 people. Again most of ours are firearm related....

Are you scared now or something??? I would rather have a campus where a person is not allowed to carry a gun, then go to school where scared and armed students may start shooting if they think something is wrong. Chances are most who say they should be able to defend themselves with a gun would never have the nerve to use the gun they were carrying anyway. A gun free zone is a joke.
Grow a pair and go to class.... Norman is is not Baghdad ... There are plenty of police on campus. The problem was that this person had access to a gun in the first place. Basically the problem was the gun!!!! So you want more problems????

Sexy is in the interpretation. Fifty years ago there were advertisers that used sex to sell their products, and that continues today. There is more so than ever an interest in where products come from and how they are made. People have always cared about cheaper prices and that is why places like Wal-Mart became successful to begin with. There is no doubt that Wal-Mart and big box stores have problems along with increased globalization to deal with, but these are separate issues that have little to do with advertisers using sex to sell products. If there is fear of becoming a mindless consumer then there are ways to deal with the problem. First the United States for the most part is a capitalistic system and thus we are all consumers. There are misguided people throughout the world that are truly in need of a better education. People should not refer to anyone as mindless because everyone’s story is unique with regard to choices they make in life including shopping. There is little basis for considering the clothing that American people buy in general as being too risqué. The clothing that people have been wearing for centuries all over the world varies with culture. What people would consider sexy also varies greatly even in places where they traditionally wear very little clothing. Does wearing the smallest amount of clothing equal immorality? Not at all, is immorality implied within the article? The author is worried about things (sex-focused lifestyle) that do not correlate to bigger societal problems such as divorce, corruption, general unhappiness, depression, and suicide to use the examples given in the column. Submitting to a sex focused lifestyle leads to all of these problems? Huh, the fact is that all animals have a sex-focused lifestyle; it is how we reproduce, evolve, live and thus survive. Basically if we did not have some sort of sex-focused lifestyle your supposed moral values in this country would not exist. We really need to take a step back if we are worried about what kind of underwear seven year olds or people in general are wearing. My questions would be who cares what underwear people are wearing? People wear mismatched socks because no one will see them. Should I care what socks people are wearing? There needs to be an exchange of information, and increased education about what comes naturally to people, and society. Having rules about what is appropriate is a good thing and will differ across cultures, which is also a good thing. There are laws in place that protect people from what has been considered to be offensive in public and these too vary from place to place. One perception and or moral judgments should not be considered more correct than others when dealing with public information. Turning a blind eye is the worst thing that can be done, when doing so leads to more ignorance.
