at least until she knows how to tweet responsibly.

They could also be the type who blast Rush Limbaugh and Michael Savage in the house when they are on. While doing the laundry, have the radio blasting and day in and day out, hearing the crap that spews forth from the radio. We all know their hate speech has consequences, and yet they are still on the air getting away with racist slants, and spewing forth fearful views of how the world looks to them. People who are not educated, buy into their crap.

This country is far from removed from racism, sexism, homophobia and yet it thrives everyday in talk radio. You can get sponsors to boycott a radio personality, but there will always be some right wing owner of a corporation willing to step up and take their place. Not only do their form of propaganda affects the minds of adults, but teens as well.

It goes both ways. I learned early on that I didn't want to be as intolerant as my parents, that I didn't want to have the same ideology that they have.

I'm not discounting that she may have learned this from her parents but it's just as likely that she learned it on her own.

I would bet the farm that there are plenty of people here on DU that could say the same. Her parents could very well be horrified and sick over this. She could have a crowd of bigoted friends.

IF she was that bigoted, it would have come up in conversation long before it came out here. Good parents would jump on that..and make sure their child never went in that direction.

When I was young, my dad brought home a puppy. Its was a pug.


He asked me to look at the dogs face. "Well daughter, is that a very ugly face?" I looked again. "No!" I said, how could it be so?"
"Correctly, said my father..."This puppy's mother loved that face, as did his brothers and sisters. To them, they are how they are supposed to be. Love comes from the inside out! "


hada no iro yori, anatano kokoro no houga motto daiji desu. Your heart matters more then the color of your skin.

anything the parental generation thought was uncool. I don't think of teens just adopting their parents' views. Though I guess with these kinds of views, it may be possible.

And forgive me if I don't think that losing your Twitter account or being grounded a for a few weeks is not sufficient punishment.

but I am suggesting that her parents need to take away her twitter account. How you can extrapolate one from the other, I've no clue.

already taken care of that.

I think they should lock her ass up in jail for a few hours. Here you go princess, this is what life is like for felons.

I think that quote from one of her tweets about sums up this young lady. She was probably drunk when she posted the tweet about Obama. Lots of posts about being drunk.

Upstanding citizen, not. CPS should get involved btw...alcohol, minor...need I say more?

Her Parents must be lovely people!!!

She'll be a Fox News Bimbo one day.

Now I actually feel bad for this kid. There appear to be some parenting issues here.

I'm guessing shes a miserable person with very few friends

...looking for a job.

But then I thought: -drunk -idiot -blonde -- I'm surprised she doesn't already have a job at fox news...

Frankly, I would hope so, too, for her sake. She won't find him quite so attractive when she starts making him angry...

But, then again, considering what she proudly posts about, she'd probably be drunk most of the time and not even notice.

Sad.

and use this as a way to get in the door of Fox, she looks like the type that they like.

To be sixteen years old and so fucked up in the head. Very, very sad. If I were her father I'd be crying every night.
