What's the last thing you took a stand on?

[Work in Progress]

"All that is required for evil to prevail is for good men to do nothing"

Do you take a stand when something sincerely hits you as just plain wrong? What's the last action you took regarding something like that?

I sent this letter to my radio station today:

To Whom It May Concern;

Currently your station is running a commercial, I believe for a motorcycle shop, that has the jingle "Put something exciting between your legs".

I am quite surprised that your station sponsers this commercial. First, because I think it's a pretty widely accepted belief that the Country Music venue is considered "family entertainment" and "G Rated". Secondly, because I also considered your station to be of the same kind of entertainment.

I find this commercial inappropriate for a family radio station. I would expect to find such tasteless and crude stuff on a hard rock station, or a station featuring Howard Stern, and that is why I choose not to listen to those venues. I like your station, I love Jim and Wendy in the morning, but there are other stations that I get just as clearly including (town name here)  108 and (town name here)  107.9.

I would like to ask you to reconsider your choices in this matter. Sometimes, money is not the most important thing, or the bottom line.

Thank you for your attention to this matter,

(insert my name here)

So........what's your story?

[Guest Called]

The last thing I did was email those in the Senate about the Federal Marriage amendment. I also called Victoria's Secret and asked them to quit sending me their catalog's because I was a Christian and I didn't want their filth sent to my home.

I think as Christian's we should take a stand on things that are not right.

the last thing i took a stand on... nothing that will change the world.... my daughter's boyfriend cussed out my husband, and i swear the only cussword that boy knows starts with the letter F. despite the fact that my daughter had less than a week before moving and that it may make her resent me forever, i took a stand and told the boyfriend he was never allowed in my home again, and never allowed to call here again. i stood up to my daughter's tears, pleading, and then her outright FURY... but i did not back down.

and i wanted to. :sweating:

The sellout of my church and pastor on compromising with the world.

(sheesh, and it's not been pretty..........Hey Calamity, I understand the hurt you're experiencing. It's not easy, and it is spiritual warfare to the fullest extent. Please pray for me)

Suzanne, I feel for you. Been there, done that, and finally left that place to a church that doesn't sell out with a social gospel. Hang in there.

Lady - good for you!! Kids have no respect today. They are pampered and spoiled and left to raise themselves. JMO.

[Guest LadyC]

arrrrggghhhh, the little snot just called, twice! i answered the phone and he didn't speak. i have a full featured phone service (sprint) but can't remember how to block his number. anyone know what buttons i push to prevent his number from coming through?

of course, after he called, ashlea went out for a walk. i don't even want to know what i already know. i refuse to lock her in the house for her last three days. but that don't mean i have to let his calls come through, either.

A step ladder and i fell down and went boom :x:

LOL sorry couldnt resist

My most recent stand was on Denominations (see the now locked thread), Also i have recently wrote my congressmen and senators on the sanctity of marriage.

God Bless,

sorry river, but the constitution was messed with when radical judges decided to throw out the intent of the document to suit their political agendas. it doesn't mess with the constitution to clarify what should never have needed clarification in the first place, it simply attempts to protect the constitution from being abused.

but unfortunately, there's too many politicians that agree with you.

that aside, when ya coming to vegas for some hot wings?

The only time that you are really taking a stand is when everyone is standing against you.
