I am getting fucking fired up. Three stories came up today that make me want to shout and scream and just punch people in their goddamn faces.

Stories #1 and 3 don't surprise me at all. I was raised Catholic in a Republican part of Georgia, and I have no trust for Catholics or Republicans. But the second story is so discouraging. I'm a parent, and I can't imagine throwing my son out of his home. And it was just a one line comment in the article. A kid losing his home is a much bigger story than a prom. And people want to raise money for a limo ride for him? How about raising money for a place for him to live, or to go to college? Damn, I'd have the kid move in with my family if he needed a place to stay.
