Comments on: Tennessee, the Laughing Stock State becomes … A Laughing Stock https://gregladen.com/blog/2012/03/26/tennessee-the-laughing-stock-s/ Sun, 15 Apr 2012 15:14:27 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.4.8 By: David https://gregladen.com/blog/2012/03/26/tennessee-the-laughing-stock-s/#comment-492023 Sun, 15 Apr 2012 15:14:27 +0000 http://scienceblogs.com/gregladen/2012/03/26/tennessee-the-laughing-stock-s/#comment-492023 Wanted to point out that not all of his hillbillies in TN are idoits. 🙂 We are mostly a backwards thinking state but it comes more from Christians trying to further their religious beliefs than ignorance. Just one country boy’s opinion that I thought needed to be heard.

Well, since when has teaching 6 years old about gay sex had any part of education?

Since when the fuck has anyone advocated this? Moron.

I can’t wait till I get to quit TN. Hopefully before the state kills me.

How hard is it to understand that the scientific “controversy” they want to teach does not exist?

Whether these folks are simply whistling their opposition in the wind remains to be seen.

It might be a four-way tie!
