  Schools (Was: Ten Commmandment discussion with School, etc.) Was: Re: Mormon bashing again
 
(...) I can't speak towards the schools themselves, but I know that for the last 10 years or so, we've had groups like the Christian Coalition, Focus on the Family, etc. sponsoring not-so-stealthy "stealth" school board candidates with, shall we (...)

  Re: Due Process
 
(...) Certainly, but that sticker seemed like Judge, Jury, and Excecutioner all in one shot, and its effects lingered long after it was removed. I understand your analogy about the suspected murderer, in that imprisonment removes a potentially (...) (25 years ago, 17-Mar-00, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: Trying to understand Socialism
 
Steve, (...) Well, maybe what Bill is saying that this county wasn't started out socialistic, but it seems to be getting there. Socialism is a black and white definition, however. Any Political Science / Government class will tell you. Scott S. (...) (25 years ago, 17-Mar-00, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: Trying to understand
 
(...) I think I started to lose interest when their programming day consisted of Yo! MTV Raps interspersed with episodes of Club MTV. Not my type of music, if such it may be called... Dave! (25 years ago, 17-Mar-00, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: Trying to understand

  Re: Trying to understand
 
(...) Doncha hate that? When MTV first started, I used to be a continual watcher. It was something new, they (mostly) played really cool music, whatever. The beginning of the end (for me) was when they first thought "heavy rotation" would be a good (...) (25 years ago, 17-Mar-00, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: (Ten Commmandment discussion with School, etc.) Was: Re: Mormon bashing again

  Re: Due Process
 
Lindsay, (...) Ann Arbor, MI? Which one? (...) It depends on the contractor, some are good, some are bad, just like anything else.

  Re: Due Process
 
(...) "Aaahh yes, the o l d cone of silence trick!" (...) I was in Amsterdam in 89 and they have two Hard Rock Cafes - one for smokes and one for drinks. My friends and I walked into the wrong one by mistake - which being on active duty at the time (...) (25 years ago, 17-Mar-00, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: Due Process
 
(...) I've always wondered if this was something that was implemented in the design phase or after the fact--it's interesting to hear the reality. My uncle is an architect in A^2 and has built or remodeled private residences and public buildings (...) (25 years ago, 17-Mar-00, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
