This is one of the reasons the government shouldn't bend to Catholics church position on birth control on religious beliefs.

ooooooooor people could just go to another doctor who's not a nutjob... I'm just sayin

6/5/2012 10:40:28 PM

^^Problematically, pharmacists have even more ... discretion. They can refuse to fill a prescription if it violates their own moral code. Now, I'm in favor of private businesses being allowed to refuse service, but you would think that if you work for say, CVS, you would pretty much be required to fill a valid birth control prescription.. not the case.

Also, this dude chick sounds like a nut and should probably have his medical license reviewed and possibly revoked.

the thing about pharmacists, though, is that the people who have the objection to filling BC prescriptions are a dying breed, so the problem solves itself. just go to another pharmacy or raise hell with the manager

They knew all along that the majority is pro-gay and lesbian. There is no reason not to be, unless you're a religious nut and there are a lot less religious nuts than normal people. Who is the gay and lesbian obviously going to be fooled into voting for next election? "

SET EM UP:

Americans shift to supporting gay marriage

A majority of Americans — 54% — say same-sex marriages should be legally recognized, a poll says.

i am ok with gay marriage but i dont see how the supreme court can say laws can't be based on morality alone. if that was the case then thousands of laws would become unconstitutional such as gambling and prostitution just to name a couple

if one did, it would have to be a state court not a federal one as this power is not given to the fed in the constitution. yes i know that hasn't stopped them before. Also no way they would take away that much power from themselves.

I think the argument goes that any law that discriminates against a class of people must be examined "heightened scrutiny" to justify that discrimination.

3/14/2013 9:43:08 AM

Prostitution doesnt just fall under "hey I can do whatever I want, victimless crime, just having fun, etc."

The state has a vested interest because of public health risks.

Gambling has demonstrable ties to organized crime, huge amounts of money, and addiction, etc.

Both probably have tax issues (or lack thereof) that the government is interested as well. You arent going to get out of them regulating both harshly. I seriously think you should all continue sticking it to the man, however.

I mean I think you have a point if you are trying to say that the Supreme Court has gained power over the last decade or two, but the 10th Amendment does not restrict the Supreme Court from hearing cases on state statutes. The Supreme Court can hear any case that involves constitutionality.

Have fun some day in front of a town council, or state legislator, or maybe even the Senate with your Family Guy themed PowerPoint. I'm sure you'll make a difference and influence prostitution/gambling laws.

More realistically you should probably just keep these discussions within your small group of friends that share your naive worldview.

Speaking of menial labor you should probably get off the Internet now and go hop back on that forklift. 12:30, breaks over.

The cartoon isn't the discourse, but the satire that it provides certainly advances a discussion of what makes something wrong or illegal.

3/14/2013 12:36:49 PM

The cartoon was to get down to shitbrain's level of understanding. And well even that failed.

I suspect his mother drank heavily while pregnant with him.

3/14/2013 1:12:00 PM

Lol, you're calling me shitbrain when you obviously have no idea what the definitions of pornography and prostitution are.

I can't argue with such people, but since this is Chit Chat I'll give you a pass.

Again, continue thinking you're smart by soaking up Family Guy and assuming it to be clever. Just because your dimwitted peers do the same does not make you intelligent.

The laws of Chit Chat demand an ad hominem attack against me asap.

In the meantime here are some analogies that might better help you formulate these arguments in the future. I don't want you to limit your argumentative toolbox to cartoons:

Oh course they are, but what are you trying to accomplish by being there?

That sort of think makes you "simple" in their eyes, and unfortunately they are the ones with the power to affect real change.

self-hatred/loathing is well documented

it's not a stretch (in fact, it makes sense to me) that a significant portion of those most outspoken against homosexuality do in fact have homosexual feelings themselves

you turn shame and embarrassment over your own feelings/predilections/tendencies/whatever into hate towards the same traits/behavior in others

we need to bring back mccarthyism, but make it homosexual-themed
