Re: Liven up - What are your 'hot button' issues

  • When people trash the local police depts. and call them lazy and overpaid. I can't even THINK about this without getting fired up because I know how hard my Husband works to protect the people that live here.

  • career welfare recipients, racism, disrespectful people, immigration, stereotypes.
    sometimes all you really need in life is a pink wig.
  • Mine is smoking, I don't believe in smokers rights and I won't even let you smoke on my property even outside.

  • Rape victims referred to as "The Accuser"

    The assumption that the poor are lazy- some of the poorest people and hardest workers I know are one in the same

    Corporate waste

    Environmental destruction

    How race, sex and class still intersect after all we've had the opportunity to learn

    too many to list :(

  • It would be easier for me to talk about what doesn't get me riled up nowadays.

     

    Any mom wars: SAHM vs Working Moms, BF vs FF, and on and on.

    Immigration. So people who can and will work and pay taxes can't come live here but the people who can but refuse to work and abuse the system without ever paying into it can? Ooooookay.

    Anyone who can't see outside of themselves w/r/t the way other people live/think makes me crazy. We are all different. Mind your fuucking business.

    Abuse in the Catholic Church. 

    There are so many more. Seriously. I could go on forever.
