That there was slavery in the North doesn't justify anything for the South. The North moved to end slavery long before the Emancipation Proclamation. It WAS a growing issue among citizens and lawmakers, it didn't just pop out of thin air as Lincoln was reading it. I would suggest Mr. Ballard up above re do his history ...more

The argument that a flag is just a flag until someone's attitude gets in the way seems a bit naive from someone that served our country for 20 years. Flags are symbols and they represent many things to many people. To state that someones attitude WON'T get in the way is to basically devalue the meaning of ANY flag..as ...more

Geiyser is a troll and a douche. And Lisa is an idiot. Your disagreement with someone running around half nude isn't a gay thing, that is YOUR issue with the symbolism. I suspect when your favorite straight singer/actor/whateve ​ r is running around scantily clad doing whatever they do, you aren't judgmental. Keep the...more

Actually, Geiyser...  it is NOT infringement. Hate speech is not protected by any laws. There is a difference. You can disagree with homosexuality. You don't have to support the cause or even agree with it...and no one is stopping you from being an ignorant **** who would suppress the rights of humanity to others based...more

There new 'fresh' menu is ok, but it's bland and not worth the buck for the bang. If they are going to compete, they are going to need a better price point...cuz Subway h...more

I can't understand why the reviewer isn't stating...more

@  J Sweiny Keep your rediculous conspiracy theories on another page you idiot and stop insulting the lives of the people that died on that plane and in the pentagon...unless,  of course, your theory explains where all of those people went and how their families weren't and aren't able to account for them... I assume ...more

Pretty funny Barry, of course, when you want to see real backstabbing, racism, and double talk about the sanctity of life followed by how all of the illegals and poor people are killing this 'free country' we live in...it takes a quality conservative christian republican for that.  You know...the kind of Conservative R...more

@Smoker60... With all do respect: Hey Idiot...there are laws already on the books for such things.  Apparently though, there are SOME people that like to break laws and have imported this menace to local waters and unfortunately, the fish are already here. so killing them is a perfectly feasible plan... unless, of cour...more
