Plays that stir the pot

<p>I live in a state in the north where the governor compared gay marriage to incest just a couple of days ago. Yes…simply wanting the right to make healthcare and end of life decisions for someone you’ve loved and built a life with for forty or fifty years is exactly like incest…I can’t wait 'til the next election.</p>

<p>As for this thing at Ole Miss, it is an absolutely horrible thing. I am of the opinion that the fact that these guys play a sport has nothing to do with the attitudes and sad outlook they have. That comes from how they were raised. I know plenty of football players, coaches and former players who do not think that way and would never carry themselves that way. The fact that this bunch thought they could act like trash and get away with it does have much to do with the privileges they are accustomed to receiving as athletes (let’s not forget that plenty of actors think they have a free pass for abhorrent behavior too). Also, considering the accepted statistics, it’s a good bet that one or two of them may have been heckling on the outside, but dying from shame, guilt and confusion on the inside.</p>
