hrmm... wait, why is this thread closed?? i feel that the fact of the matter is, is that this is a real problem that our world faces today. yes, people can either take things seriously or joke about a problem. reguardless, it will still be there the next day. i'm not sure if this thread was fiction or not, but this is something that deals with more aspects than we probabaly realize. is it dealing with people who don't share the same ideas that you do. this thread won't be liked be everyone but how is that different from any other thread?? surely abuse is illegal, but so is statitory rape, and so is drugs and underage drinking, YET we will talk about it. i talk about driving home drunk in basically all my threads and i know a lot of people don't agree with it. the bottom line is that this is a forum and i feel that people's ideas should be welcomed. i might not agree with everything, but you won't like everything in life. i feel that this thread should be reopened, so i am doing that. mod's if you feel differently, tell me so and we can talk about it. raverboy
