Something doesn't sound quite right here Tom. Let's start with the "parents abandoning you at 17." When I was 17, I abandoned my parents - not lawyers but southern simpletons - by joining the Marine Corps. By age 17, just how must more parenting did you really need? The answer became quite evident as I read further. Research shows we actually get about all we need from our parents by age 7, and you got 10 more years. If you watched them get their butts up out of bed everyday and go do something productive...if they were both educated and led you to see the importance of the same...if they established an environment where you had to think and solve problems, become mentally and emotionally tough, and build a coping system to face the harsh world...then exactly how much more did you want Tom? So the fact that your story starts off with a sympathy play speaks volumes. The fact that so many who commented actually buy your BS, just tells you how few critical, analytical, logical thinkers we create these days. It's obvious Tom, by all the categories of people you berated - including this cracker who put his life in harm's way for 20 years so you could speak so freely - that you're a hater. Anyone, or ideology, that doesn't fully embrace yours deserves your scorn. Wake up Tom, Gulfport, Mississippi isn't the problem. Your emotional immaturity is. Now, if you happen to live a lifestyle that's socially frowned upon in a certain geographical area, then do what all the animals do Tom, migrate...and then be happy. Seriously...be happy! If not, seek therapy.
