She did not... she was the devout, poorly-educated daughter of an urban Scots-Irish Catholic family desperate to appear genteel. They yearned for the Victorian (or Edwardian) definition of respectability - every piece of furniture was covered (no legs!) - and who looked down on anything associated with the "old country" as unbearably primitive and peasant-y.

Exactly... I can't tell you how many comments I've had to abandon because they just trailed off into incoherent and disgusted mumbling.

Not to mention being "psychologically unfit" for police brutality duty.

Can we start a GoFundMe to post this on the biggest Times Square billboard in perpetuity? I'm ready to bankrupt myself to get it going.

I believe Al Franken put it best when he said the best job in the world was Rush Limbaugh's fact checker.

You've got it all wrong... in a healthy, functional society, the BOYS should be constantly trying to get in the pants of any girl they cross paths with, and never taking "no" for an answer unless it's backed up with pepper spray. It's 100% up to the GIRLS to maintain good Christian values, (while of course being careful not to make the boys feel rejected or like their unwanted sexual advances were in some way a bad thing.)

(Should probably stick a Poe disclaimer on this one...)

Whom, exactly are these boys to fuck? Conservatives have spent years yelling at women to put aspirin between our slutty knees and calling us whores for wanting to have some input over our reproductive rights. Girls go to a clinic for a pap and a breast exam and are subject to "Christians" screaming at them and calling them murderers. No wonder girls are turned off.

Listen, El Rushbo - all the boys have to do is follow Bristle Plain's Abstinence Guidelines and they'll be fucking everything in sight, instantly, all the time, too. Your being relaxed is important to Merica. Goodbye.
