Okay...i'm just gonna say one more thing...
I am actually a moderate on some social issues...for example, I SUPPORT tighter gun laws. I am ardent pro Assualt Weapons Ban, for example...
My response to the Gay ? has been moved to the debate thread...

1) first, i must state my reasoning for the "no" as the poll says i should. anyone who knows me knows i curse A LOT (im trying to get better, sorry!). anyway, i do curse, but it's not my site (KLOUD doesnt have her own website 2 chat on that's WAY better that drawing [sorry kloud]), so i dont feel i have the right to make aku change it, it's what she wants. i think its more power to u to inforce your rules
2) on youth directors, i had one who i SWEAR looked like orlando bloom, it was AWSOME (though, it would have been better if he looked like johnny), to bad he moved to africa...hey, u dont think alyssa is hogging him, do u? i havnt heard from her in a while...
3)Whine? This is the first time...And I'm not having a fit about it...This is just my opinion and its just a petition I'm not expecting for it to change anything on the site..i'm just showing my own point of view on a subject...I haven't attacked anyone's morals I've just shown my opinion...It's just like the Day of Silence today...I wore my T-Shirt I said nothing during school..A bunch of people did but even though we have this protest its not going to change the fact that we live in a homophobic nation and it is shown throughout the generations of kids in highschool...I'll try to make my impact on this site ((Actually I think I have with that girl's board thing....)) until it closes down for any strange reason...Untill then..i'm just going to continue... i wasnt here that day (stupid bio project)...what t-shirt, and how does the Day of Silence jump to "we live in a homophobic nation"? u already know my views, but how do u make that jump?
ps. i want 2 c what "Umbridge" youth leader looks like

The Day of Silence was a protest for gay/les/bi rights and against gay/les/bi bullying...The T-Shirt stated the cause of the day of silence and everyone participating wore one that day...How that jumps to show that we live in a homophobic nation or lets just say generation was that once people I didn't know ((And some I did)) realized the meaning of my actions they wrongly assumed that I was gay and started to steer clear of me...I'm not gay but once somebody got the slightest thought in their head that I was they freaked out and avoided me like I had the plague...

Note that you were quick to add, "I'm not gay." The reason why many people are homophobic is because it's a way for them to assert their 'manliness' or whatever the female equivalent is called. They like to make a big show about the fact that they're not homosexual because they want to make it known that they're not-- otherwise, people of the opposite gender might think they were gay and not want to go out with them.
It goes back to waaaay back in the days of the cavepeople (and animals today), when people/animals would fight each other to prove how strong and manly they are in order to get a mate. Deriding homosexuals is a way for people to try to get a 'mate.'
I think Zim said something about how it's ingrained in the human brain for people to be against what is different or 'off'. It's there to perpetuate the human species, just as much as stags having antlers or walruses having tusks. And people who are sympathetic toward homosexuals have this instinct, too, which is why they're so quick to add, "I'm not gay." Quite often, people who act homophobic really don't care all that much. They just want to make sure no one mistakes them for a homosexual. They want to be seen as desirable to the opposite sex.
That's instinct for ya.

k. so, just wondering, how many ppl did u get 2 do the protest?
and a lot of times ppt who act homohobic arent secure in there own sexually (or are very consirvtive ) and thus cant accept ppl who are 'different' then they are, or they are closed minded and dont understand and become uncomfortable around them

Hmm well heres what I think about cursing.
1. Parents wouldnt let their kids on here if there was cursing? Am I the only one who doesnt show their parents where I go on the internet? Guess im just too sneaky
2. Lauren, if you REALLY think adults will ever join this site, you need a reality check. The only way any adult will see this site is through their kids. Let's not get carried away.
3. You want younger kids on here too? Really? Cuz I have a bunch of 8th grade friends who wudnt mind joining, im sure EVERYONE on here wud be thrilled to have them here.
... I didnt think so.
4. We need to calm down about cursing. Its just words. Its how you use them. I think if someone uses bad language towards another person, they should be banned. I dont come here to get cursed out, so true. But if I say something along the lines of "its f**king hot outside", no one should really take offense. Im not trying to insult you, im just expressing myself. Plus, no matter how much Aku may want younger kids and adults on here, it just isn't going to happen. And high school kids, as far as I know, aren't offended much by bad language, as they are around it all the time.
My 2 cents.

O.K then it would be wrong to hit Xim... Anyway....
You said I was quick to say I'm not gay but actually that was not true if you read the rest of the sentence...People who knew that I wasn't gay thought I was and as I said below freaked out...
I'm not trying to prove my manliness...There's no such thing as being more or less man like...I wasn't sure if other people on the site who didn't know me were wondering why people were suddenly avoiding me...
About the protest...Its a Nation Wide effort and the school's Gay Straight alliance were posting fliers and there were announcements during the announcements..

Oh yeah I also back up Xero...^_^
Some people on the site are so paranoid about child molesters Michel Jackson...etc...That wouldn't you not want adults on the site...Wouldnt it stink that we would have some sort of authority overruling us and our little Teen Land on the internet...

O.K then it would be wrong to hit Xim.. . What's funny about that is that i'm probably much bigger than you and if you were to hit me i would defend myself and beat the cow (least offensive word I could think of...) out of you.... And I'm gonna be 15 in september, so you're not that much older than me, if you are...... Did i mention I'm a blackbelt? End of Conversation.

Zim, no offense, but I'm pretty positive Broker's bigger than you...
But that's not the point. The point is, I really wish you wouldn't be so argumentative. Threatening to beat people up doesn't exactly endear you to them, ya know.

Oh Em Gee! He's a blackbelt...!
Seriously...I quit Taekwondo when I hit blue belt because I forgot all of my forms when I moved here...The thing is that so you are almost as old as me..(My B-day's in July so I think I'm the youngest freshman on the site..) but I don't think you are bigger then me...Plus...The one thing that stuck in my mind when I was in Taekwondo was that speed equals power...If you can hit someone twice before they can get a big kick in then that would be all that matters...I'm probably faster then you and alot bigger then you...Trust me you don't want to fight me..Have you even been in a real fight? I didn't think so...
Either way we should stop talking about how we are going to kill whom as Schmergo said before...

maggiesfarm.anotherdotcom.com/uploads/spanish-inquisition-04.jpgthe wonder of google image search... Have I ever been in a real fight? A better ? is, "Am I an Idiot?" (Okay, i'm almost positive that I made a grammatical error there.) "Do I care about the consequences of my actions?" "Do I think that beating the snot out of someone is a good way to solve problems?" The answers to all 4?'s are: No. No. Yes. No. Now, I'm gonna drop it....pray you don't bring up this line of discussion again, as your're currently on the path to making an enemy of me, and that's not a good thing. Just stop.....seriously, why must you instigate so much? This is, what, the 3rd thing you've caused since you came back... Now I have more to this arguement, and i'll post it if you continue. STOP, NOW. You've seriously cheesed me off....

I have nothing more to argue about there's nothing more nerdy then a flame match and when it turns into this: "my dad can PWN your nubCannon of a dad" it gets even dumber...
As I said in the C-Box..we both have conflicting personalities morals and a bunch of other things so we are forced by nature to be at each others necks...Yet it shouldn't have to be that way...We need to end our fighting at call each other at a truce...Two off of the list of Schemergo's list of the people you don't want to have as your enemies shouldn't be starting a world war III....
Have I been in a real fight? Yes..Does fighting solve anything? No..Did I realize that and feel like crap afterwords (Both times) Yes ofcourse....
Nobody won our "Fight" our "Flame War" our "Conquest For The Greater Good" we just both lost....
Truce? *Extends Hand*
