I say it's time we practice what we preach. Keep in mind, my parents generation thought my generation was destroying the world. I won't follow that trend as I feel this generation of youth can make the world better and in fact are doing just that right now.

You want to talk about the Westboro Baptist church at their hurtful campaign? That is NOT the way to change things either. I do NOT agree with their methods either. Nor their premise.
Does the end justify the means? Can we just attack and hurt and walk on peoples tender feelings in order to get our point across?
When is it just TOO much?
