1.) There is no such thing as the “gay lifestyle.”
2.) No one gives a fuck what you accept or don’t accept. They just want the same rights as everybody else. They do not have an obligation to hide their identities from narrow-minded bigots. Gay couples deserve the same right to go to a baseball game as my wife and I do. They have the same right to hold hands or put their arms around each other. Events like Gay Day are intended to make the sight of gay couples as boring and unremarkable as the sight of straight couples. Organized events like this take the novelty of those sights. Once the initial shock value is gone, many people will begin to see how perfectly ordinary it is. That is the goal.
Of course there will always be morons, but that’s too damn bad, isn’t it? Why should those people’s “acceptance” be required? If someone doesn’t accept interracial couples does that mean that interracial couples should not have the right to go out in public?
It;s the same with same-sex couples. Your “acceptance” simply doesn’t matter. Your fucking hang ups are your fucking problem.
Well, obviously they do give a fuck what I and other people accept, because they keep trying to push it on us. And I didn’t say gays shouldn’t be allowed to go to baseball games. And no one has a “right” to hold hands, I don’t see that anywhere in the constiution. It’s not a right, it’s just something people do. And gay couples will never seem as normal as straight couples, becaues gayness is unnatural and most people know that.
I’m not saying anyone shouldn’t have the right to go out in public, just that I don’t like having their lifestyle forced down my throat.
Anyway, why do gays want a day at a baseball park? I thought gays didn’t like sports?
mhendo, the sheer stupidity of it made me suspect a prank even before the porn redirect showed up. (“EVOLUTION’S KANGAROO SCIENCE: THE ROOT OF THE NEW MONKEY MORALITY!” It sure looks like parody.)
Anyway, the slob in the sweatshirt really is a self-described “christian,” although the bulk of his web presence seems to be geared toward using religious affiliation to promotebusiness.
(There are some references missionary work in the Ukraine, to be fair. I do find the idea of exporting Christian missionaries to a predominately Catholic region kind of funny, though. )
I think it would be better if left-handed people were somehow prevented from writing, especially in public; left-handedness isn’t terribly common and I don’t like it and anyway, nobody has the ‘right’ to write, I don’t see that anywhere in the constitution. It’s not a right, it’s just something people do. And left-handed people will never seem as normal as right-handed ones because left-handedness is somewhat unusual and most people know that.
I’m not saying that left-handed people shouldn’t go out in public, I just don’t like having their lifestyle forced down my throat.
But… but… he’s a REAL AMERICAN HERO leading us in the fight against Cobra!!
Speaking of which, does that mean that Cobra is somehow aligned with Al Qaida or Saddam Hussein? I haven’t seen the Cobra Commander or Destro on a pack of playing cards, but I’ve been busy lately.
Is there ANYTHING more pitiful than an online petition?
BTW, I was under the impression that I managed to read most if not all of GI Joe’s posts and, while he is a moron, in the past that wasn’t a bannable offense. Has the banning of december gone to the admins’ heads and will they now ban everybody to the right of Ted Kennedy?
And what was it with GI Joe’s fixation with gays? I mean, even his name referred to his rectum. :rolleyes:
AND I was EVER so pissed when GI Joe started fighting COBRA rather than the Russkies or Red Chinese, who we were still cold-warring with. Little did I know that Hasbro was 20 years ahead of the curve by leading the fight with International Desert Terrorists With Cool Vehicles. At the time terrorists seemed to mostly be unpleasant students in the PLO, IRA, and Bader Meinhof Gang and I didn’t see Joe protecting discos from briefcase bombs. They did miss the boat with the cool vehicles, though. I don’t remember Hasbro offering a beatup Toyota pickup full of guys with AK-47s.
Hey now, even if you think Gay Day the greatest thing since sliced wonder bread and the petition the work of people who rode the short bus to school, I see NO reason to libel Donnie Sadler.
Please. Did you see the outfits they were wearing back then? No self respecting gay guy would be caught dead in those light blue road uniforms, or the brown and yellow San Diego unis.
