Much of this reporting is good, and needs to be reported, however it is done to the exclusion of any commentary or reporting which tends to project sex as natural, healthy and part of the human condition.<br /><br />• There seems to be a story every day about a sex crime or the adjudication of sex crime. The KDT will not print any editorials that put the adjudication of these crimes into question, and under report false arrests and/or dropped cases after person’s names dragged through the mud.<br /><br />• The local Art Community is fixated upon excluding sexuality as part of the natural human condition. All of the stage productions exclude sexuality as a healthy part of humanity, and deliver a steady stream of light, bland productions, which tend to reinforce the puritanical culture. The same holds true for the visual arts, which seem totally dedicated to projecting a faux image of the American West, replete with images of proud, healthy American Indians, rugged cowboys, and of course, the obligatory quail and barbed wire.<br /><br />• Public School administrators are focused on the same mission. Kerrrville schools minimize sex education, and try to inject religion into the curriculum as often as possible. In one bizarre incident, a former Texas Ranger actually took guns into the classroom in Ingram. While this was acceptable to the administrators, they reject using condoms into the classroom for educational purposes.<br /><br />Is there any wonder there is so much fear and guilt in Kerrville regarding sex?<br /><br />The prosecutors are savvy, and use the evil twins of fear and guilt time after time to promote themselves by grandstanding, using sex cases as a vehicle, exploiting the fears of the community.<br /><br />Where are the leaders? Where are the artists? Where are the journalists?<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4791178038803775236.post-73778689142666860932012-11-23T17:24:37.589-06:002012-11-23T17:24:37.589-06:00I have written several posts here criticizing Kerr...I have written several posts here criticizing Kerr County Culture, but have never really offered a solution or alternative culture. Our recent national elections have put America on notice there is a culture change upon us, and I believe there is a chance this new culture will save us from decline. I am talking about marijuana culture and sex for pleasure, both of which are social taboos for discussion in Kerr County. I am sure we all have an idea what sex for pleasure is, but many of your readers may not have the foggiest idea what marijuana culture is. Let me explain. The recent legalization in Washington State and Colorado has legitimized a long standing subculture around marijuana, which emphasizes peace, sex, relaxation and concern for the planet. These elements are the polar opposite of the underpinnings of war on drugs, which is ultra-violent cartel culture, and ultra-punitive police state / American prison culture.<br /><br />What great day to light up, and get naked.

They love to hate sex,and are constantly looking for new ways to make it a crime. I have submitted several stories on point which you did not published and I understand why. It is true that "surge boy" Patreaus was conservative hero before the sex thing. Now they claim to hate him from the jump. I listen to Rush everyday just to know what my clients mad about that day. They hear it and immediately incorporate it into their belief system. Fear is a beautiful thing, the feed stock of exploitation. I do like the term "war of sex"...could you copyright that for me?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4791178038803775236.post-31482309963114791192012-11-16T16:51:50.438-06:002012-11-16T16:51:50.438-06:00You are misreading the post.

The other point is that there seem to be a lot of generals in the US military that think they are entitled to do whatever they want, and the rot filters down, e.g., to the sexual harassment and abuse by low level trainers in the USAF. You seem to get agitated when I don't toe the complete leftist line. As for you last statement, I thought what the right wingers did to Clinton over Monica Lewinski was despicable.

OH NO! Not THAT! Of course SEX trumps everything. I remember the moveon.org piece a few years back which labeled him General Betrayus. The Right wing went on full attack mode, with flared nostrils. Your mentor, Rush, went on and on about how great the General is...a true American..blah blah. Obama kept him around and then there was SEX so now this guy is unfit and has always been a louse. How quick they forget. This is a page straight out of Orwell. Doublethink is the correct term, I believe.<br /><br />Kerrville is leading the war on sex, and Richard, you are proud sex warrior.
