We have a section in our local paper called You Said It, where people can call in and make anonymous comments. When new management took over a couple of months ago it intended to banish You Said It, but turns out people like having such a venue. (As the child of a family sometimes involved in politics? Which means you sit down and shut up? I can see how this might come in handy ;)
ANYWAY.
Opened the paper today and nearly fell out of my chair. The thing about You Said It? There are people raising hell about "crinimals" and "al-kee-holics" and "them thar" speeders. Statements are published verbatim and some of them are...reason for pause.
Quote from today's paper:
"In response to Bonnie Erbe's column in the Saturday newspaper opinion section, if God didn't want us to eat animals, why did he make them out of meat?"
This one goes on the refrigerator.
