What is your point?

OH. MY. GOD.

Interesting, thank you. It just seems unbelievable to me that it is acceptable for people to get in someone's face and scream at them for participating in a legal activity.

So? Jesus is still a religious name that means quite a bit to the white folk of Tennessee.

He says "tags"? I thought he said "tabs" like, drugs. I am old too.

Vanilla Ice is NOT awkward!

There is an old photo of me from when I was 9 or 10 years old waving a sign with a heart on it that said "LIFE". My parents dragged me along on an anti-abortion protest. It was a massive church thing — we all piled in busses and drove to DC from NH. I am so pissed off at them for doing that to me. And the best part is

I thought there was already a federally required distance that protestors had to stay from the building? Or am I just living in dreamland? Not that 20' or 30' or even 50' is enough.

I think the fact that you know One Direction negates your feelings of old!

Yep. It's gotten to the point that if you're going to say anything controversial, you have to submit your socially conscious resume first in order to get your statement approved as "not assholey" when all you really want to say is that its nice that people aren't looking orange and gross.

Look. I stated something that I did when I was a child. I said it was wrong. You continue to harp on this when I have done nothing wrong. You're being a jackass.

But he's yelling at YOU like YOU'RE the racist, not your MIL. This guy...

Take your offense and stuff it.

Yes. AND WE WERE LIKE, TEN YEARS OLD.

But it isn't up to YOU to determine the child's future prospects — that is the job of the parents. And if the parents feel the name is good enough, then why do you think you know better?

Yep. There are so many great names that have meanings attached to them. That doesn't mean we don't get to use those names!!

Not to mention that I specifically stated that the names we giggled over are URBAN LEGENDS and not actual names.

I am speaking for myself and all the other little white suburban girls that I would giggle with over such names. Perhaps you were born perfect. I wasn't and am ok with admitting it.

And I assume you stood up to your boss and demanded that she stop breaking the law? Or did you just quietly go about your business?
