How about using, tolerating and encouraging the use of drugs. Some of these drugs are fairly victimless, such as growing mild voltage marijuana in your attic, and some are deadly, such as meth. It takes down whole neighborhoods, cities, counties...as did crack cocaine. It creates cesspools where firemen are afraid to go, where police are afraid to go, where children can't walk to school or ride the bus safely, where companies won't invest.

How about being so lax in raising our youngsters that 12 year olds get pregnant?

How about partial birth abortion?

How about educated, prosperous (so no excuses that I can see) women deliberately bringing fatherless children into the world, maybe and maybe not injuring their own children, and definitely setting a bad example for the younger, more naive and disadvantaged women to do the same.

How about being so environmentally unbalanced (not aware, unbalanced) that whole segments of the economy are essentially shut down.

How about allowing schoolchildren to wear clothes that prostitutes would be ashamed to flaunt.

How about ridiculing or abusing Nascar dads, stay-at-home moms, Southerners, veterans, red-necks, people who like country music, Christians, Christian fundamentalists, Christian right-wing fundamentalist, Christian rightwing hate-filled evangelical fundamentalists, people who shop at Wal-Mart, people who drive heavier cars so their children will be safer, people who wear polyester pants, unless they are cocaine dealers, I could go on.
