What the fuck is wrong with these homophobic bigots?

{RANT MODE: ON}

I have HAD IT with some of these idiots on this whole gay marriage issue. Are people so tied up in their own little worlds that they choose to remain blind to discrimination? Are politicians so concerned with staying in Washington that they’ll vote any which way they think will get them re-elected? Jesus Christ - we don’t even have sufficient health care, and they’re going to make a constitutional amendment about burning the fucking flag? Give me a break! When is someone going to stand up and do something that’s right instead of just doing something that’s popular? Please, God, let Jesse Helms and Strom Thurmond DIE already!

And these radical religious wack-os - “Gays marrying will destroy the sacrament of marriage! They’ll destroy society! They won’t procreate!” You know, the church says sex is bad, then says its all that matters - no wonder our society is so fucked up. If two people want to get into a committed relationship, let 'em - whose business is it of anyone else’s? How does this hurt anyone else? For Christ’s sake, there’s only 10% at most of us anyway - do you really think we’re going to topple the government and paint the White House lavendar? Fuck you and your “domestic partnership” bullshit! Land of the free? NOT FUCKING LIKELY!

Some idiot says “family is all about blood and genes.” Well I got news for you - there are a thousand different kinds of “families” in this world, and to spit on every one that isn’t man/wife/2.5 kids/dog is the most racist, bigoted, self-serving, hateful thing I’ve heard in a long, long time. I am lucky that I had a stable home life, but when I think about all those unwanted children, unplanned pregnancies, divorces, cheating spouses, ad nauseum, all I can think is any break a person can get in life they should jump on and never let go, and I don’t fucking care if its with someone of the same sex, adopting a child, living with your parents, whatever - it comes down to allowing someone to have some love in their life without all of the self-righteous small-minded bigots of the world saying, “Well, I don’t understand it, so it must be wrong - stop doing it!” And worse, like sheep, so many other otherwise good-minded people go along with it. What was that quote - “Nothing is so wrong as right-minded people who stand aside and do nothing?” Something like that. Well, sometimes it rings true. Fuck, on vote.com gay marriages won an approval rating of like 55% - what the fuck is wrong with people that they can’t even take the time to think about it and say, “Hey, maybe we should give equal rights to everyone?” What a concept, you MINDLESS MORONIC FUCKING SHEEP!

Um, hello? Reality check? Blacks get killed, faggots get bashed, women get raped, and white men get rich day-trading on the internet. Does anyone see a problem with this? When is someone going to stand up and say enough is fucking enough?!

{RANT MODE: OFF}

{sigh}

Perhaps I’m going to start re-thinking my second career of becoming a UU minister and start studying to make a difference today… Whatcha think? :stuck_out_tongue: (Oh, and can you tell I was in a pissy mood today?)

Next time I want your opinion I’ll beat it out of you.

Wow, that was a pretty intense rant there.

I do take issue with

Blanket statements like this one do nothing for your argument/rant.

Oh boy, my first official case of sig line writer’s block.

er . . . so, how 'bout them Rams?

4

I sure do! I’m a white man who’s NOT getting rich day-trading! Was I absent the day they taught all the white men how to do this? FUCK!

5

Andros… umm… that spot is reserved for Lauralee.

I mean, I think he might start getting a little upset if he thinks his groupie has left him.

LAURALEE??? YOU GOTS SOME SPLAININ TO DO!!!

Surely it can’t be much longer, in the latter case at least?

I see one problem: I’m not rich.

Hmph. Words to remember: All generalities are incorrect…including this one.

8

That’s right! I have a wife, 3 kids, 2 dogs, and a cat. I am so tired of people telling me how to live. YOU have too many kids. YOU have too many dogs. Shoot that fucking cat! I hate you. You’re not normal.

Whew. Glad I got that off my chest.

'Gator, would you believe that Andros is really Lauralee, and she let Gaudere run interference for her? :slight_smile:

Didn’t think so!

10

You don’t have to worry about Thurmond, he’s not running again.

Oh, and you’re kind of right, but not completely. They actually do think it’s wrong, the rest is just excuses.

I sold my soul to Satan for a dollar. I got it in the mail.

11

I have noticed a distinct lack of LauraLee follow-up posts recently.

Hmmm, right around the time Trollpuppet was banned…

Now, you too can become an Evil Ninja Assassin in the Self-Righteous Clique. Ask me how.

12

Oh, Poly, that was a cheap shot. I expect an immediate apology to Lauralee! :slight_smile:

13

Esprix: Right on man! I say we get rid of all laws because any law is a form of discrimination. Equality is good therefore anything that promotes equality is good.

14

Well, since we all know that internet polls are perfectly scientific, it blows my mind that no legislation has been enacted in reaction to this outcome.

Now, you too can become an Evil Ninja Assassin in the Self-Righteous Clique. Ask me how.

15

Yes, you’re right, and I apologize, but I will point out my Rant Mode was ON at the time, so some of it just came out without my intelligence filter on. I was raging at the world, man! :slight_smile: My point was there is a lot of obvious injustice in the world and too many influential people turn a blind eye.

And, yes, internet polls are more than a little skewed (Keyes won like 35% of the same vote.com mock election), but I was ranting, man!

Otherwise, allow me to say THANK YOU to everyone - after reading my post and getting all indignant, y’all just punctured my balloon and had me laughing on the floor! :smiley: I am truly grateful.

(I believe “Shoot that fucking cat!” wins my Made Me Snort Milk Out My Nose Prize of the day. :smiley: )

We could use a few more rabble-rousers like you, Esprix. Just tone down the language; there are kids at the service today. :wink:

My husband and I have been trying to convince our (UU) church to paint the organ loft in rainbow stripes. We have spent way too much time looking at paint chips in the last year or so.

Okay, so I guess it’s 2000 now, and that means it’s time to refresh the list of who it’s socially acceptable to hate :

Okay to Hate :
Homosexuals (BIG time)
Fat women
Those damn druggies
Communists, and to a lesser extent, Socialists
Blacks (South only)
Mexicans (South - Southwest only)

Not Okay to Hate (but was 50 years ago) :
Blacks
Japanese
Women in general
Anybody who isn’t Christian
Germans
Eye-talians

Ain’t all just silly? Of course gay marriage should be legal. I mean why the hell not? Give me one good reason without quoting the bible.

A world without hate would require a MASSIVE influx of IQ points, and I just don’t see that happening any time soon. Oh well …

Brilliant! May I quote you?

Squid,

That was fucking hilarious!

Don’t be such a stranger to posting!
