Traditional Marriage or Unholy Chaos?
Here we go again. Let me tell you a little story about history. This country was founded on Religious Freedom and that all men are created equal. Religious freedow means exactly what it say's. Freedom to practice any form of religion you chose as long as it does not infringe on the rights of other people whom may not share your views. The Founding Fathers were some pretty smart guys. That's why in the Consitution of these here United States, as stated in the first admendment. "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof..." In short this means that the Government cannot make laws based on religious grounds. Them smart and hip Founding Fathers, who were not, though most people think they were, Religious Zelots. They knew that if they didn't separate Church & State it would not be long until the United States would become a Theocracy. So keep your Bible out of my laws. The religious zelots of the US cannot and must not dictate laws for their own agenda. If it means going to jail, I will not obey laws that are Unconsitutional and will fight them with all my heart to get them removed. People need to quit living in the age of Jesse Helms and his croneys. It's 2012 and people can use their own brain and don't need the church to tell them how to live. Church is a Crutch for weak minded people, that are not content with their own being, and need something to validate their lives. I have several Gay friends. They have been better friends than any Bible Thumper I have ever met. I would leave my kids with them in a Minnesota Minute, this is not true of 90% of Religious people I know.

Keep It Up, Rick and Rush
I'm not a Liberal by a long shot, I'm more middle of the road. Rush is a bigger ASS than my Grandpa's Donkey Max. I would not trust him or Santorum or Romney in a Outhouse with a Muzzle on!!!!!! I didn't vote for Obama the first time, this time will, He is not the greatest President But he is hands down better than these Republican clowns. I don't need a pack of Bible Thumpers telling me how to live.

Picerno Calls for County Board Vote on Marriage Amendment
Religion is just a crutch for weak minded people, whom don't want to face reality. Worshipping a Mythological God and believing a book on mythology is the answer to all of lifes riddles. How can one be called a Christian and judge people when in your all knowing God said in his Holy book, not to judge other people, that is my job. If God is so powerful why does he let inocent childern stave to death, why can't he stop wars and disease, according to you Bible Thumpers he was powerful enough to create the Heavens & Earth, Man & Woman, he should be able to do this with one hand tied behind his back. It just pure bigotry not to let all people of the US share the same rights as others. this is 2012 not 1512. I know right from wrong and don't need some hypocrites telling me how to live.

UP's Hicks Named Conference Player of the Year
Congratulations Crystal!! No doubt you have done an outstanding job and it has shown. Regardless of what accomplishments you make in life there will always be someone jealous. Their jealousy and ignorance shows and you just have to ignore it and move on.
We're very proud of you and wishing you the best on your future achievement!!!!!!!!!!!! Love you!!
