little people call for fcc to ban 'midget'.
new york (ap) -- little people are calling on the federal communications commission to ban the use of the word "midget" on broadcast tv.. .
the group little people of america said sunday the word is just as offensive as racial slurs.. .
What on earth is the world coming to?
Midget vs n*gger? No contest. Midget's just a regular word, the other is an unforgivable slur.
IMO "little people" sounds far more condescending than "midget" does.
Maybe the JW's are right, and the world is about to end lol
reconsider!
here is the low down on maintenance and costs.. first of all with a brand new air system by trane (2 years) our bill is still 400 a month for cooling a 1650 square foot house.
electricity down here is very, very expensive.. mold and mildew during the summer months will take over a pool, deck, or the side of your house with in days.
Florida is too humid, and there's too many old people driving 10 mph below the speed limit in the fast lane.
old friend of mine od'ed today.. such a waste..
Damn, so sorry to hear that :-(
Drugs have their place, just a shame when they ruin or take a life.
If I still prayed, I would pray that you and your mate's family make it through these hard times. But since I don't, I will just wish you will and say that if this wasn't the internet, you could have my shoulder to cry on in a heartbeat.
in countries with basically a homogenous-language speaking group?
it strikes me as more devisive than uniting.
more like "separate, but equal".
It's just another way for Witnesses to fill their lives up doing Jehovah's work. It provides them with the hobby of learning another language while at the same time making them into JW All Stars. For a devout, mentally infected Dub it's a win-win.
this is a first timer posting.
heres my story which im hoping you guys can help me with, even if its just support ( i could sure use some!).
brought up in the truth, i spent 20+ years of my life having trauma after trauma in it.
OnTheWayOut summed it up perfectly:
"You are done. Enjoy your life."
I don't think it could be any better expressed.
i received this vomit-inducing email from a jw:.
i had the tonight show w/ conan o'brien playing in the background, at first i was shocked to hear what i heard, yet very happy to see what was being prominently displayed in public view for the entire world to see (as the show is syndicated internationally)!
yup, the study version of our dear watchtower with the words announcing jehovah's kingdom prominently on the front cover.
LOL hilarious! Pretty schocked that they had a study copy of the WT blown up for use. Wonder if the Brooklyn Bastards are going to sic their lawyer hounds on Conan...
other than feeling "love bombed" when you first started associating with the "brotherhood", did you experience the "love" in your years within the organization?.
if you felt truly loved, was it in reality, a "conditional love"?.
I knew some brothers and sisters that would step in front of a train for you and really acted like Christians in terms of helping those in need, taking care of their neighbors, etc - but these were very few and far between. Generally every hall I attended had its cliques, scandals, and gossippy backstabbing going on so that the few decent people there never really even got noticed.
i just heard mention on the news of jw's again pertaining to burial etc concerning mj.. i have heard and read more jw stuff in the media since his death than ever in the media.. why not just come out and make a statement where mj stood with the organization?.
.
purps.
Why don't they make a statement and put to rest any of the public's confusion on his JW ties?
Because it makes too much sense. Come on now, we're talking about the people who believe they are woshiping an invisible dude in the sky by giving away magazines.
Poor Mando... sounds like he's just at the beginning of JWness. He's got a long way to go to escape what he's only begun to step into. /sigh

"Theocratic Warfare" wow what an utter joke. How does occupying a seat twice a week at a KH, giving away magazines on random topics every Saturday morning, and lying to protect your ass even remotely resemble any type of warfare?
