Be Happy. Be Hateful. And Stop Breeding.


A Neuqua Valley High student wants to wear a shirt the day after the day of silence. The shirt will read "Be Happy. Be Straight." Or something. (Link to the article.) She's filing a lawsuit now because she wants to wear the shirt but the school won't let her. Frankly, I think we should let her. Her message is silly and highlights the foolish arguments employed by the ignorant religious people in this country who think they can control the rest of us and our sex lives. (Plus there's the whole free speech thing.) She should be allowed to wear her shirt if the gays can wear their own shirts ("Stop overpopulation. Start having gay sex." / "Good Christians don't use the pill. Neither do lesbians." etc.) on their own day as a replacement for the thoroughly unproductive day of silence. Everyone gets a fallacious, argumentative t-shirt day. Everybody wins.

Overpopulation is no laughing matter. I'm offended by your comment. You're going to hell. With the gays.
