Just think of the moral cesspool our educational system would become if we outlawed guns in school too.
How do you spell D-E-L-U-S-I-O-N-A-L? Yep. That seems about right.
Lady, even bad things happen to good people, whether they pray or not.
This kind of thinking is purely self-serving. I really believe she cares nothing for actual victims. Its the worst kind of demagoguery. Can we please get these small-minded, narrow-headed freaks off he public stage once and for all? Arrgggggghhhhh.
Lets just ignore the FACT that crime, especially VIOLENT CRIME is down across the board to the level not seen since the 1920’s when America was MUCH more rural and people had much less contact with each other.
The only thing that has gone up is the exploitation of crime by Politicians (Tough on Crime!) the News Media (If it bleeds, it leads) and opportunistic Religious Dominionist (American Taliban) assholes like this one.
Swing and a miss lady. Would you like to play again?
As a social liberal,fiscal moderate,somewhat hawkish on defense/foreign policy person,this is the reason I cannot even hold my nose and occasionally cross party lines and vote for a Repub. Starting in the 80’s,the GOP has become so tethered to the evangelical right that I cannot,in good conscience,vote for any Republican.
Not usually a looks oriented person but she strongly reminds me of the woman in the West Wing [president of the Tight Ass Club].
Probably just me.
Scary stupid.
Invoking the name of David Barton’s studies as proof results in the death knell of her claim. Put another way, it’s BS!
"Because we as a church should have never have let that happen, we should never have allowed prayer to be taken out of our schools," she said,
Prayer hasn’t been taken out of the schools. Any student can pray whenever he or she wants to, quietly to him- or herself. The minute you make it mandatory, it becomes coercive. And guess what? The Constitution says you can’t do that.
Take your proposed theocracy and go away.
. . . and Scott Walker. You forgot Walker. All these people listening to this kind of rant can not WAIT to vote for WALKER.
My mother had a saying whenever the subject of “banned prayer in school.” She would say, “As long as there are final exams and SAT’s, prayer will be in the schools. I defy you to prove otherwise.” That would shut even the most vocal “that damn Earl Warren, liberal Supreme Court banned prayer in school” loudmouth. Smart woman my mother!
I think they should be launched out on a A United Launch Alliance Delta IV-Heavy rocket toward the outer solar system where, by means of radio signal, they will be automatically disgorged to become a permanent addition to the rings of Saturn.
The GOP IS made up entirely of the Dumb and Dumber crowd.
or perhaps Ur-anus would be a more fitting final destination or them. It seems to echo what drips from their lips.
Exactly, I used to pray in school all the time, “Please, Lord, don’t let Ms. Reeves call on me today.”
Dirty ice…perfect for dark money.
Walker’s fetal looks creep me out…I only included the THC faction, JEB and Rand with Little Jackie Paper. Scott seems too much a momma’s boy to have experimented with hash or bong.
Hmmm… All those problems started in the 1970s… Then I blame the advent of the designated hitter in baseball. The world has just gone to hell since that evil practice started.
When the prayers came out of schools in the 70’s…
Since the 1970’s Teen Pregnancy has gone down. Using her logic:
Prayer in school causes Teen Pregnancy.
Why do you want more teen’s pregnant, Tamara Scott!? … WHY!?
I do believe that most likely many of the the people listening to this lady would feel much better, and a lot more secure in their own lives, if only we still had “total subjugation” of a certain race of people. They do yearn for those days.
(And honestly, it’s only recently that I’ve begun to feel so hopelessly cynical; the right-wing response to Ferguson, the foolishly uncompromising GOP responsoe to “anything Obama,” the sweeping GOP victories in November of EVERYTHING - the Senate, Governors, state legislatures - after the total mismanagement the GOP brought to the U.S. House of Reps, and even though the states in GOP hands are foundering, and then, on top of that, the endless manipulation and lies from the elected class. So much of it, I believe, is driven by racism; a racism so buried in our subconscious layers we don’t even recognize it for what it is.)
Gee-there was never any prayer in my schools and I have never assaulted, raped or murdered anyone! "Fact’ disproved-moving on!
