Yes, anytime wisdom, compassion, understanding, and empathy are catalysts for change I would definitely say we are becoming better. It won't happen overnight and without some resistance, but in time, most people will change and progress.SheWrites wrote:Confederate flag gone.

Yes.....it is the law that all people will get the equal protection of the law and those who harbor hate, prejudice, and fear may not have their hearts catch up to their brains, but it has been 150 years since the civil war where the flag of terror and oppression still is in the hearts of haters.......but once symbols are taken off government property....they can individually hate but they will NO LONGER have government assisting in the same.

It does. If a person living next door is a married couple of the same sex when you were a child, it is less likely that you will be a hater as an adult......if you grow up seeing the flag of terror and hate in a museum and not on the state capitol, it is less likely you will find any legitimacy in the same when a hater flies the same in their front yard. Laws change hearts.....it just may not be immediate.

You just don't get it. Talk about hate...
If our ability to be better people is dependent on a political party we are forever in the mire.

I don't get it? I get this. You're not a rational human being if you don't see a political party that tries to suppress people's rights,beliefs, sexuality and even what they can do w/ their body. If you for one second think we can be better people w/ laws created by politicians to enforce their beliefs you are much dumber than I thought.
