Obama: Think long and hard before letting youth play football.

[BarlyGurl]

Nothing wrong with being a scout master. And footballs are made of leather and contain no pigskin.
But training up a child in the ways of a reprobate mind IS an abomination.

Agreed... also when did they STOP making footballs from pig leather?

obama is one to talk when it comes to brain damage...

I find that offensive, and it usually takes a lot to offend me.

I'm not a huge Obama fan, but calling him "brain damaged" just because you disagree with his politics? Is that what Jesus would do?

Well gee.. I have noticed you use an assortment of tactics to belittle the intellectual powers of those who disagree with your views here on the forum. I do recall Jesus did call hypocrites...HYPOCRITES.

You're assuming just because someone is gay they will advocate raising young children as gay themselves which is far more of an ideal than actual truth

I am no way supporting KCKID... but footballs are made of leather... pig leather...aka...pigskin. At least thy USED to be made from pig skin.

Correct. They used to be, but haven't in years.

I respectfully disagree here. She and I disagree in a lot but she has always been respectful and kind in her debates.
She also tries her best to explain her views and opinions so other can understand where she is coming from.

Obama said he'd have to think long and hard before he would let a son play football.

I agree with him!

Knowing what we now know about football and the damage done to the brain, there is absolutely NO need whatsoever to subject our youths to this traumatic and dangerous activity. Daddies and mommies who want to live through their son/daughter, need to pack their ego at the door, and put their child's health above their need to see a few hard hits.

No problem... just because you haven't noticed this in your experience... doesn't change the fact of what I have noticed.
