		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;You see what the problem is? FY2009 was not a Bush year. FY2009 was not a Bush year. FY 2009 was not a Bush year. The Democratic Congress did not pass a budget until March 12, 2009. Do you know who was President on March 12, 2009? It was not George W. Bush.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

&lt;strong&gt;OMG&lt;/strong&gt; are you and &lt;a href=&quot;http://tinyurl.com/7fypy9s&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;Ann Coulter joined at the hip? &lt;/a&gt;Not that it would be a bad thing but Dr. Wifey might object ;)

&lt;em&gt;It&#039;s been breaking news all over MSNBC, liberal blogs, newspapers and even The Wall Street Journal: &quot;Federal spending under Obama at historic lows ... It&#039;s clear that Obama has been the most fiscally moderate president we&#039;ve had in 60 years.&quot; There&#039;s even a chart! 
&lt;/em&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;CM&lt;/strong&gt;, before you even fuckin start, argue against her FACTS not her persona OK?

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;I’d also have the same complaint about a straight roommate that kept bringing girls over to fuck.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Yeah right. That&#039;s why the equivalent of &#039;skanky old fags&#039; is &#039;girls&#039;.</description>

		<description>You can indeed spend your way out of debt, all the current US financial problems are “Bush’s fault”, Obama walks on water, has a 13″ cock, and has not once wiped his ass with the constitution. Additionally, despite proof the contrary, Obama has presided over the greatest era of economic prosperity ever, as evidenced by all the government spending on green energy.

		<description>CM will point out that you can indeed spend your way out of debt, all the current US financial problems are &quot;Bush&#039;s fault&quot;, Obama walks on water, has a 13&quot; cock, and has not once wiped his ass with the constitution.  Additionally, despite proof the contrary, Obama has presided over the greatest era of economic prosperity ever, as evidenced by all the government spending on green energy.</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;I’d also have the same complaint about a straight roommate that kept bringing girls over to fuck. Unless he brougth one for me, he can go find someplace else to do his business – college dorms are too damned small for putting up with that bullshit.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

When I was in the dorms, at one point I was in a large room with two other guys (we knew each other well and had requested this).  One of my roommates brought a woman there once who was at least 30 who beat &lt;em&gt;the shit&lt;/em&gt; out of all three of us at pool and drinking.  If he&#039;d brought her there again, I&#039;d planned on talking to number 3 and saying something to number 2 about her and not being comfortable with it.

It doesn&#039;t take being gay for there to be a problem.</description>

		<description>The punishment is way out of line - he&#039;s being made an example of in the name of political correctness, just like Zimmerman.  The rule of thumb is this: when the LSM, academics, and race-baiters scream hate crime, it is almost certainly not one.

Also, the way dorms are set up with being randomly assigned roommates is stupid.  I don&#039;t know about you, but the last thing I want is a gay roommate that brings over his skanky, older, shifty-looking dates and tells me to get lost while they spend the next few hours buggering each other.  Now this guy gets to not only worry about his stuff being stolen, there&#039;s the almost certain drug use going on in his room, and he has to find someplace else to study.

He should have been able to make 1 complaint that his roommate was entertaining skanky old fags and interfering with his ability to study and had a new roommate.

		<description>Do I think that Ravi did something wrong?  I do, but his level of punishment has already been way beyond appropriate.  When you&#039;re not the only person using a living space, running video without the other person&#039;s knowledge is a violation of their privacy.  Normal expectation of a living area like that is that you&#039;re not being taped.  That said, he&#039;s been kicked out of school and stamped with the scarlet letter.  Just like with Zimmerman, my position is partly reactionary to my recognition of the media making the situation out to be something it wasn&#039;t.  Ravi wasn&#039;t some hate-filled monster attempting to entrap Clementi for the purpose of public humiliation.  His only chance to leave this behind is now to change his name and move to a different area, and even a legal name change doesn&#039;t leave it behind for the purposes of employment (as background checks will ask for/find the old name).</description>

		<description>It&#039;s odd how so many of you seem totally convinced that Clementi only put up the camera to protect his stuff. That would be his version 100%. How about his tweets and text messages? How about Clementi playing the tapes for his friends?

I think that Clementi did wrong, but I DON&#039;T think that he&#039;s responsible for Ravi&#039;s suicide. Am I being unreasonable? Your reaction is weird to me. It was the same with the Zimmerman-Martin case. Why go from one extreme to another? Zimmerman was a neo-Nazi or a superhero, Martin was a gang-banger or a saint. All depending on politics, it seems. Isn&#039;t all this ridiculous?

Seems to me that Celementi got a pretty fair deal from the justice system. The court of public opinion is another matter, though. I don&#039;t like media reporting names before convictions. I&#039;m not a huge fan of media reporting names after convictions either, but that&#039;s just crazy talk, I know...</description>

		<description>Talking to a bully about their behavior will always have the same result - an increase in the bullying behavior.

One thing, and one thing only, &lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;ever&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; stops a bully: consequences

To start with, lot&#039;s of bullies find what they&#039;re doing as quite enjoyable and/or frequently think the victim has &quot;earned&quot; it - &quot;talking&quot; to them isn&#039;t any motivation to quit doing it.  Making them bleed for their efforts, however, will provide plenty of reasons for it to to &quot;not be worth the trouble&quot;....

&lt;blockquote&gt;I think that he put up the camera and was immediately regretful of what it showed him, but he was just trying to protect his stuff.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

I know I would have regretted it.  Puking is never pleasant.....</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;Putting up a camera is exactly something a bully would do. Someone fearing for his life, his future, his sanity, his family, love and the human race, would have talked to the guy. &lt;/blockquote&gt;

No, someone being bullied knows better than to think that talking about it will do anything.  Besides, do you really think that the straight student complaining about a gay student is going to get any help from the university?  He would&#039;ve been told that he was a hateful paranoid homophobe, and that he had no basis to judge his roommate or anyone he brought home.  I think that he put up the camera and was immediately regretful of what it showed him, but he was just trying to protect his stuff.</description>

		<description>People put cameras up in their residences all the time for security.

Bullies physically, verbally, emotionally, etc harass other people - making sure that his roommate&#039;s sketchy boyfriend isn&#039;t stealing shit doesn&#039;t qualify.

Trust me on this one, I&#039;ve been bullied - this isn&#039;t even in the same category.</description>

		<description>Putting up a camera is &lt;em&gt;exactly &lt;/em&gt;something a bully would do. Someone fearing for his life, his future, his sanity, his family, love and the human race, would have talked to the guy. Had that not worked, he would have talked to officials. Had that not worked he would have talked to someone else. If nothing would have worked, he would have moved out himself.

Or, he could have beaten the crap out of the guy. If I felt abused I might have just done that. But I would have deserved the punishment when I got it. Not for the suicide, but for the beating. Had I chosen another route, like say putting up a camera. I would have deserved punishment for such a dick move.</description>

		<description>Clementi was the bully in that Ravi felt uncomfortable being in his own room because of people his roommate was bringing there.  Putting up a camera isn&#039;t exactly the type of thing that someone would do who had the upper hand.  What do you think was happening?</description>
