Other than an overwhelming number of them, and the fact that your messages are hard to find and respond to among them, I don't have a problem with you using them. And I surely have no issue with you exercising your American right of free speech.  I meant that some of the quotes have disturbing, even scary, implications.  I intended what I said as a conversation starter, nothing more.

Proud homeschooling/unschooling mom :)

 From the day we arrive on the planet. blinking, step into the sun. There's more to see than can ever be seen. More to do than can ever be done. There's far too much to take in here. More to find than can ever be found. But the sun rolling high
Through the sapphire sky. Keeps great and small on the endless round. It's the Circle of Life.
