Just because we live in a country with freedom of speech does not mean people do not have the “freedom” to protest hate speech at their place of education.

1. When she expressed her belief that America would be better off if women couldn’t vote

“If we took away women's right to vote, we'd never have to worry about another Democrat president. It's kind of a pipe dream, it's a personal fantasy of mine, but I don't think it's going to happen. And it is a good way of making the point that women are voting so stupidly, at least single women,” she said.

2. When she advocated for a poll tax and literacy test (hmmm… that reminds me of something)

“I think there should be a literacy test and a poll tax for people to vote.”

3. When she used a homophobic slur to categorize John Edwards, a democratic presidential candidate

“I was going to have a few comments on the other Democratic presidential candidate, John Edwards, but it turns out that you have to go into rehab if you use the word 'faggot,' so I'm... so, kind of at an impasse, can't really talk about Edwards, so I think I'll just conclude here and take your questions.”

4. When she compared Barack Obama’s book on the state of racism in America to Mein Kompf

“ A dimestore Mein Kompf.”

5. When she had some colorful words for a Canadian Muslim student after they disputed her claim that Muslims should not be allowed on airplanes

“Take a camel.”

6. When she attributed gun violence in America to black men

"It's not a gun problem. It's a demographic problem."

7. When she referred to Mitt Romney, a person she supported, as a “retard”

"I highly approve of Romney's decision to be kind and gentle to the retard."

8. When she said there should not be a path to citizenship because immigrants would vote for Democrats

"If amnesty goes through, America becomes California, and no Republican will ever win another election."

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day.
