Oooo a civil ethics discussion on YT! Chicken soup for the political science major's soul... LOL!

I agree that rights come with responsibilities. It was best explained to me like this. Let's say we are all in high school and had all gotten BRAND new red Corvette's to drive on the first day of school. So now its 3:15 and the bell just rang to let us all out of class and we RUN to get in our new cars. Well no matter whether or not we have the RIGHT to drive those cars, there has to be mutual respect and courtesy for any of us to get out of the parking lot. Otherwise it would just be a jumbled mess and alot of people could get hurt in the process.

My momma always says "If you wouldn't say it to someone that had a gun to your head, then you probably shouldn't say it at all." A little graphic... but it gets point across. Cause if I think about that before I say something, it really makes me think... Is it REALLY worth it to upset this person?!?

Smiley faces or not, sometimes members here are incredibly rude. Even in real life, just because somebody is smiling doesn't mean they're being nice. There is ALWAYS a respectful way to say what needs to be said. If not then just be a big tattle tale and report them to admin! I know that's how I always stayed out of trouble when I was little...
