As for my offensive comments? Sometimes you gotta annoy ppl to get their attention. At least that’s my theory about most mainscream ads these days. It seems like they’re all designed to annoy just to get ppl talking about how annoying they are.

But if the comments cause some debate or discussion (even just “how we gonna hunt him down and kill him?”) that’s gotta be better than no discussion about the topics at all.

Then again, I suppose it is difficult to find somethng to say which has not already been said a thousand times.

This is true. I couldn’t agree more.

“Why do you think the religious nuts have so much control over what goes on at the schools?”

Religion, at least in the traditional sense, has all but been banned from school. The only religion that is allowed in schools is worship of the government and cartels, consumerism, and the “almighty dollar.” To which religious “nut” are you refering?

“In Oz schools aren’t autonomous, everything they do is controlled by the state govts.”

Same here in the P.S.A. and most every other country as far as public school is concerned. Schools in the P.S.A. are also heavily influenced by the cartels. I strongly recommend that parents homeschool their children or send the to a school within their congregation.

“The religious twits have no more access to schools or influence on education decision making than anyone else in the community.”

Again, to which “religious twit” are you referring?

“So if you want the parents to get upset about it, first you’d have to turn off their damned tv’s to get their attention and then explain it to them… In words of one syllable or less for a lot of them”.

That is the TRUTH!!! In order to get people to turn off their telly, you have to give them another form of pacifying entertainment. Peer to peer works great. Independent movies that are entertaining can be used to counteract the brainwashing. The same is true for music.
I love the song, “We All Live in Walmartville.”

“I’m not saying ALL american parents are morons, just a frighteningly large number of them.”

By calling Americans morons (yes using the words a “frighteningly large number” counts), you turn off people in the P.S.A. to whatever
good point you had. If you leave off the part, “In words of one syllable or less for a lot of them” and the last sentence, your comment might influence a few more people.

In Oz schools aren’t autonomous, everything they do is controlled by the state govts. This is why you don’t hear about ID being proposed to be taught in Oz schools. The religious twits have no more access to schools or influence on education decision making than anyone else in the community.

So if you want the parents to get upset about it, first you’d have to turn off their damned tv’s to get their attention and then explain it to them… In words of one syllable or less for a lot of them. I’m not saying ALL american parents are morons, just a frighteningly large number of them.
