...lived in today! There were no trays at the first Thanksgiving! The Indians taught pilgrims about maize and tray-less dining. At the very least we could have no trays at three of five meals: a tre-fifths compromise, though that was ruled unconstitutional in the seminal case of Roe v. Tray. It’s a simple case of traykle-down economics. Let’s not forget that trays nearly pushed us to nuclear war in the Tray of Pigs fiasco. When will enough be enough...
...similar initiative that was defeated in 2006, the new measure was rejected by 56% of voters yesterday. According to Kristine Wilfore, executive director of the Washington-based nonprofit Ballot Initiative Strategy Center, which advocates socially progressive issues, the initiative would have set in motion a future challenge to Roe v.

...1980’s, Republicans dominated the youth vote. Perhaps the stigmatization of relatively few issues repels socially liberal students. The connotation of “family values” conceals its universal appeal. Beyond Roe v. Wade and gay marriage–though both campaigns agree on the latter–lies the desire to achieve stable communities. Spending just under two months in Sociology 155: Class and Culture accentuates how often broken families adversely affect children and how easily these situations affirm poverty through jail rates, school dropouts, and future behavioral patterns...
