T-C Line Madness

I thought I was going to collect a lot of T-C Line quotes and put them on the blog in one swoop. Bad idea. I will come in every so often and put one up, but the T-C Line is such a joke I can’t spend too much time on it.

On to this week's quote. A recent controversy at Longmont High School involves a male student being sent home to change because he was wearing a skirt, or a related article of clothing. This sparked a protest by students against the school and its so-called discrimination of gays. Like small-town newspapers are supposed to do, the Times-Call reported on the controversy. Now, the quote:

I’m disappointed the Times-Call is featuring alternative lifestyles. Example: the teen cross dresser who disrupted school with his attire. Schools should have a dress code, and all students—both male and female—should comply. Regarding the lesbian couple who was featured as a “family,” the Bible clearly states homosexuality is a perversion and abomination to God. Always has been, always will be.
I am so sorry. Pardon the Times-Call for failing to censor any material that might be objectionable to anyone. I don’t know what they were doing by reporting a local happening? And alternative lifestyles, what were they thinking? Listen, this caller, and countless others in the city of Longmont, myself included, want to live in a world with one lifestyle and one culture, a world where patriotism means complying to the rules…all the time. The Times-Call would no longer be able to report on diversity in a totalitarian regime. If they did, they would face strict penalties from the ruling class. That is what I would like to see. No more tomfoolery on the front page. No more shenanigans from the Times-Call.

Thank you so much for keeping me up to date on the T-C Line...it is definitely one of the most entertaining portions of the Times-Call!
