Not "My way or the highway".&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;as far as the post above...common sense says that it's just a photo, If she earned the degree and certificate...give it to her. If, later on she proves herself unworthy...take them away.&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Deralaand</dc:creator><pubDate>Thu, 10 May 2007 07:49:46 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Woman Sues University Over MySpace Controversy</title><link>http://mashable.com/2007/05/08/myspace-photo-degree-denied/#comment-5944379</link><description>&lt;p&gt;Itâ€™s nice that we donâ€™t get executed for having a meeting and sharing an opinion about the religion of a national leader.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Are you sure it really is like that in other nations? And are you sure that you have the best freedoms regarding the same thing?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;And sorry for the insult, it was partly a joke, partly an insult and partly a shocked reaction. I mean, this can really happen in America? I thought you declared yourself to be free nation. And you proudly think you are the most free nation in the world. Sure, the girl can sue her school (is "sue" the most used American word nowadays?) but going to court to protect the very basic and absurd rights of mine is pretty much hurting my freedoms too.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;All right, maybe it is not that much anti freedom at all. Maybe it is just plain stupid. That is why I did not declare America as anti-free but just stupid :-P&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Don't take it all too seriously :-))&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;And pardon my sorry English.&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">JS</dc:creator><pubDate>Thu, 10 May 2007 02:42:20 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Woman Sues University Over MySpace Controversy</title><link>http://mashable.com/2007/05/08/myspace-photo-degree-denied/#comment-5944378</link><description>&lt;p&gt;It's nice that we don't get executed for having a meeting and sharing an opinion about the religion of a national leader.&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Deralaand</dc:creator><pubDate>Wed, 09 May 2007 11:44:49 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Woman Sues University Over MySpace Controversy</title><link>http://mashable.com/2007/05/08/myspace-photo-degree-denied/#comment-5944377</link><description>&lt;p&gt;FU&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Deralaand</dc:creator><pubDate>Wed, 09 May 2007 11:25:24 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Woman Sues University Over MySpace Controversy</title><link>http://mashable.com/2007/05/08/myspace-photo-degree-denied/#comment-5944376</link><description>&lt;p&gt;Man, America sucks.
