Well folks tt here once more. here in norhtern colorado the town of loveland has had what some would call a tempest in a tea cup or is it?

The focus is a sculpture of one man and two women in the buff,placed in a traffic circle. the battle is the standard one,as you can imagine.

having grown up in a more innocent time (not that i ever was) i can remember that that would have never have been permit. something about public morals comes to mind. Most parents would have been out raged,but in the world i grew up in terrorist that now are paraded on tv as freedom fighters would have been condemned and hunted down by all western nations and who gives a dam about if they are hiding in some middle east nation. borders would have meant little and the local governments would have handed them over or been replaced.

Now days that would bring a scream of horror from most of the western nations and notes of stiff diplomatic protest. the alphabet media and air amerkia would be having orgasms of condemnation and self degradation.

one person that thinks a girl is ready for sex at twelve is either a child molester or a progressive female supreme court judge. a girl at 14 should have the right to an abortion with out her parents knowing. on the other hand in colorado at 14 she's old enough to have a common law marriage,and no one seems in a hurry to change it. common law from england is the base of many of our laws and has stood us in good effect. however it came about when the average life span was a lot shorter and by 14-15 a boy would have been a master in his craft and have lived almost half his life. a girl of 14 would almost be past marriageable age and again more than likely have lived half her life.

You grew up fast back then. responsibility came early,nowdays they talk about phasing in driving permits. How do you explain that at 18 you are old enough to change the world by voting,to go to war, BUT you aint old or responsible enough to drink???? yet people use warped logic to bend it and make it sound reasonable. why are kids responsible enough to have sex,abortions,vote,go to war,but not drink or learn to drive. where have we failed to teach them complete responsibility?

HMM... let's see freedom fighters, paradox on the age of responsibility,Harris and Kleibold,mothers that drown their children,nude sculpture in public rather than museums,cries of outrage when countries defend them selfs from terrorist,a family structure that's being redefined.....

No it's not the world i grew up in and it won't ever be again (you can't put the tooth paste back in the tube). moral relativism and what i call I.E.G.S. and I.M.G.S. have worked to our benefit haven't they. for most people this is the world they wanted/didn't want. so buckle up kiddies from here on the ride gets rough.

all the best tt. ...-

p.s. these are the good old days
