Swiss Voters Vote To Ban Minarets (Mosque Towers)
My take is that no democracy should allow the banning of specific religious symbols, banning all religiously themed towers(steeples,minarets,christmas trees > 5m), sure, only Muslim ones, not good.
We have fallen too far into the belief that democracy = right, which is plainly false. Sometimes, even often, democracy is wrong, that's why we have constitutional democracies, to protect minorities, and limit the destructive force of mob rule. It clearly didn't work here.
This is something I have conflicting opinions about. In principle, I think people should be able to live exactly as they please - racists shouldn't be forced to live with people they don't want to live with, for example. Unrestricted democracy is great, provided you also have complete freedom of association. Unfortunately the reality for most of us is that you're born into a society so large that you can't possibly expect to agree with everyone even on the most fundamental of principles. And you can't expect to fix that by moving elsewhere, either, since pretty much all societies are too large to allow for a large degree of individual autonomy. You don't get to choose the people you share a society with, which is, in my opinion, the real problem.

My point is, there ARE clear, ironclad protections to the "traditional marriage" crowd's rights - in the US constitution.

My only requirement is that those morally opposed to homosexuality also have their rights respected & protected.
Which rights are those? The right to live in a society where everyone conforms to one's own ideals? That's not achievable unless you're willing to splinter society into much, much smaller autonomous units than we currently have. Probably units of one person.

Cute Girl Plays Flute Hero
EWWWWWWWW!! This bitch is most assuredly NOT fucking cute. Are you kidding me? God damn. This bitch is UUUUGGGGLY and NOT CUTE. Plus I had to turn my speakers way the fuck up to even hear this video. Laaaame. Every piece of media on the internet needs to have its audio normalized.
Also, ew, it just got to the part where she starts playing. And what the fuck is this shitty ass song? Sounds like crap. Honestly. This is annoying. Sorry. I have to say it. I would downvote if I could.
Since you apparently don't know this, let me clarify: If you watch videos via VideoSift, comments you make will not actually be forwarded to Youtube. Next time, click on the embedded video first, then comment. When you do, remember to work the word "faggot" in there somehow. I think they require that as a matter of policy.
The Onion: Sneak Peek at Modern Warfare 3
Also, while this concept of a "Sneak Peak" sounds intriguing, and rife with military potential, I think the word you were looking for was "peek".
