It is about resposible ownership IMHO...sm

A dog will usually show some sign of being aggressive. I don't believe that they would just attack all of a sudden and never show a sign of being unstable. Granted there are some pit bulls who are very dangerous. Now I believe if your friend has a pit she should not let it run loose in the yard. She should have it where it is confined to a fenced in yard with posted signs. I wouldn't feel comfortable going there either if it was just loose. That is not responsible ownership. I don't agree with euthanizing them unless they are dangerous. But I do agree with restrictions on ownership. I don't believe you should be allowed to own a pit and not have a fenced in area for it. They think when a stranger approaches they have to protect their property and protect their owner. You can't just let them have free reign of the place and roam all over the property to possibly bite someone who visited. If they aren't loose to bite someone then they can't bite them. Just my opinion.

Very excellent advice. If only we could all be so resposible. nm

he needs to want to do it himself, IMHO
My husband was 100% on board with it and had no problems at all after the surgery. The surgery is pretty simple for most men and their recovery is much easier than what we go through for a similar procedure. We have never regretted the decision not to have any children more than 15 years after he had it done. Good luck to you.
IMHO yes sm

Sometimes an 80-year-old patient is mentally capable of making this decision and it would be wrong to hold back on it. Sometimes we want to throw the baby out with the bath water and that's wrong. If the patient is capable of making a decision and has the means to pay for it, then it would be imperative to give them the option. I know 80 seems old and IS old, but some of our octogenarians have a lot to offer their family as well as the ability to carry on a healthy lifestyle. If their brain is "gone" then that is a different story and a decision for their future care should be up to the family who are hopefully going to decide wisely. Doctors are not God and we shouldn't allow them or expect them to make this decision. They have enough to do without having to play God with your parent or your family member. It's a tough call, been in that position and it haunts you for the rest of YOUR life, believe me, it's not easy for anyone. The mentally alert patient usually knows when to give it up and we should let them decide, it isn't always about the $$$$.


IMHO she is a liability....

she is just a shill for the left because of her position to potentially influence many who only get their news and views from The View. She buys in to many conspiracy theories yet can't back up what she says with facts. There is an angry, unloved person in there who has to dominate every conversation, talk louder than everyone else to make sure she gets her point across, and is just generally unhappy. She is crude and obnoxious. Forget the hanging upside down that she does for her depression, she needs some therapy and medication.


Lil and Matt should go, IMHO.

You need to get an INFORMED opinion, IMHO.

IMHO school and teacher were about as far off base as you can go...
Anytime you work around another person, you subject yourself to being called names. The "American Public" needs to suck it up a bit. If a teacher can't handle being called a name behind his/her back, he/she has no business being a teacher or in any position of authority. Bosses get called names behind their backs all the time BY ADULTS who are quite well behaved, and children are notorious for wearing their emotions on their sleeves.

Had there been a threat involved, had it been done on school property, or had the kid called the name to the face (insubordination), then the school would have had a complaint. In the absence of any of the above, school has no business there.

Were it my kid, I would explain discretion and drive on. Some of my kid's teachers have been *****es, and I have no problem with calling a spade a spade, but I do have issues with insubordination. A personal blog from home is in no way insubordination at school.

FLAME AWAY, but the kid has as much right to state her opinion as anyone else, and sometimes the truth hurts. I'm fat. I accept that. If someone points it out to me, it hurts my feelings, but it doesn't make me skinny. BTW, I'm also a b***h in certain circumstances, and have no desire to change. As a society, we need to quit being afraid someone isn't going to like us or might call us a name and realize we're no better than spinach in that some folks will like us and some won't, and that should not change our individual purposes a single bit. Used to be we were taught "sticks and stones may break my bones, but words will never hurt me". Now we've decided that words are as bad as sticks and stones. When you cause someone to swallow their feelings long enough, something's going to break, and then you'll be lucky to just get sticks and stones. IMHO, this is where the root of much of the violence is, and if we'd quit trying to be Orwell's Thought Police, we might actually see a reduction in violence, suicide, and depression.
not as good as Friskie Willow . . . IMHO (LOL)

Nope, not surprised. But IMHO, he did us a public service...
...by getting rid of that skank. They're all just a bunch of low-lifes with more money than morals or brains.
