The Foreman Awards For Excellence In Humanity - December 14th

Jim Rutz says that soy makes you gay. I don't know about the science here (especially since this is from wnd.com), but I think that when he says "Homosexuals often argue that their homosexuality is inborn because "I can't remember a time when I wasn't homosexual." No, homosexuality is always deviant.", well, that says it all.

A young man found a pellet gun. He gave it to the assistant principal, who expelled him. Sure he probably should have left the gun where it was and went to get the principal, but ... expelled?

"All humans (even in old age) tend toward femininity."

Which explains why women grow beards as they pass mentlepause.

Both candidates here are outstandingly deserving, but I have to go with Mr. Homophobe for the malicious distortion of science. Perhaps 1 out of 100 will fail realize the second guy is a complete raving moron, but many more, not having any understanding of either science or of how to evaluate scientific claims, will be taken in by Mr. Homophobe's bullshit. He undermines not only gay rights but science itself.

To me, the issue is whether one has a direct impact on someone's life RIGHT NOW and being expelled for a GuN VIOLATION at school is going to haunt this kid for a LONG time.

This is a classic case of "shooting the messenger" with a gun that HE brought to YOU to turn IN!

The hell of it is that it wasn't even a REAL firearm, but a PELLET GUN - but the administration TREATED IT AS THOUGH IT WAS A REAL FIREARM!

In DuPage County, IL we have a program going on right now where citizens can turn in firearms that they don't want, no questions asked. Can you imagine what would happen if the cops suddenly turned around and arrested some guy who turned IN a weapon on that program?

They would NEVER see another unwanted firearm handed in EVER again, nor would the citizens OR the criminals trust their word on ANYTHING, ever again!

Some (many? MOST?) of these tin-plated martinets that we have as school administrators really need to get the hell out of their offices and into the real world for a few years so they can have a grasp of what it is LIKE out here.

The majority of them have NEVER left academia.

Ever.

Such being the case, they are completely clueless as to how the REAL WORLD works.

Having been on a high school parnt's advisory board for two years, and having dealt with uncompromising administrations when I went BACK to college (a Psych of Sexuality course that taught ONLY Freud?! - no Masters & Johnson, no Hiite, nothing on psycho-biological structures in relation to sxual response?! - NOPE!), I believe that I can speak to that with some experience and authority.

I firmly believe that ANY school administrator should be REQUIRED to spend at least THREE YEARS working and living outside of academia before being allowed to run the lives of our kids.
