Hearing about Gary’s Facebook friend who challenged somebody about leaving a dog in cold weather made me really frustrated. What kind of dog they are talking about wasn’t mentioned but the idea that dogs (most dogs) are in peril being in a car for some period of time when the temperature is either 32 OR 11 is silly. Many breeds of dog are perfectly safe in a wind protected enclosed space (like a car) at below freezing temps. They do have fur and tails to cover their nose with etc. Wolves, coyotes and lots of domesticated sledding breeds live in northern climates far colder than 11 or 32 degrees and without benefit of a car wrapped around them!

I don’t know if you guys have already done a podcast about it, and forgive me if you have, but how about covering a topic about what the appropriate age is for coming out to your family: At what point should it be a matter of “Okay, you’ve been lying to your family for how many years now?” and what are some pros and cons of taking a “It’s none of their business” stance?

COL News:

  • Wednesday 06-03-09 – Not to be shown up by Vermont, NH becomes the 3rd State to Legalized Same Sex Marriage by Legislature.
  • Do you think we could apply the domino theory to the gay marriage legalization blitz that’s happening?
  • Tweets:
  • BFIrrera: @boxtech re: domino theory. Yes. They are seeing that the world isn’t ending in these states…and the nationwide backlash ‘gainst Prop 8.30 minutes ago from TwitterFox
  • Arezzo2: @Boxtech I think the ‘by legislature’ is the detail that counts. Some of the others did it though the courts (I think).40 minutes ago from Tweetie in reply to Boxtech
  • Alkar: @Boxtech Yes. I think that as states continue to legalize gay marriage the others will be forced to by essentially pear pressure.
  • KRXQ Sacramento Radio Hosts Encourage Violence Against Transgender Children – http://www.huffingtonpost.com/michael-rowe/krxq-sacramento-radio-hos_b_210637.html
  • Dan – Did you hear about this latest public display of hatred and ignorance? How sad it is that views like these still exist. If Don Imus could get kicked off the air for what he said that one time, which was stupid and offensive, but was a far cry from this sort of ignorance … then what do we do with radio hosts who literally come right out and say that transgender children (and effeminate boys in general) deserve to have physical violence done against them?
  • Tofu Fairy – Sick
  • Cole – A new low. The good thing about these lows is how it galvanizes the left and center of society. This page has all the e-mail addresses to contact to state your disgust.
