[kj] Jaz Straw

[ade]

I dunno. I just think it's odd to defend a way of keeping women down.
Nevertheless, I'll defend the right
to wear the things!

  So I take I'm missing the real issue then?

we're not talking about race

imagine a subject female
    being told she has to cover up *her* 'adornments'. Sort've puts the
blame at her door doesn't it.

    It's like as if the 'institutionalised treatment of women as cattle' is
shorted out by the 'race' aspect.

    A lefty nightmare.

      Dumb opinions that reek of intolerance are generally labelled
'intolerant', yes. He's not Hitler, but his misguided little tirade didn't
do him any favours, either.

your

Stormtroopers are coming...

        Please let's not compare Straw to Hitler. Disagreeing with the
letterbox-look
        does NOT mean the ovens are lit & ready.
