Gee, I wonder who this is about.
First of all, this is pretty sensitive stuff from such a rugged individualist.
Second, here’s my general theory on life: we all live in glass houses. Therefore, kindness and tolerance are key.
However, the second someone starts lobbing the word “faggot” from his crystal balcony, or declaiming that Jebus is the only salvation from his mirrored doorway, then it’s open season for me and anyone other to whack away at that fucker’s foundation with brickbats.
If someone calls my beloved friends and family “deviants and perverts” because of who they love, I (and I’m speaking for myself, of course) will use all possible ammunition to embarass that person and make him realize the error of his ways.
I will not apologize for this, ever.
To quote from a book that has withstood the test of time: “Let he who is without sin cast the first stone.” I like that thought, and I will not cast the first stone.
But, once the first stone is cast, a motherfucking boulder should be dropped on that fucktard’s head.
Now how the hell did you ever figure out that I was reffering to you?
Oh that’s right Harris. It was you who ridiculed Fat Tony for being an ex con fatass orca loser and a weakling who can only lift a 50lb. dumbell.
You managed to insult him on three different levels in one post.
Hmmm. If he wrote something you disagreed with then you definately have every moral right for rebuttal but attacking his physical attributes when you know he’s making an effort to better himself is just plain wrong.
C’mon man. I know your smarter than that and some of your posts I can agree with but you went a tad left of good taste this time. I never have a problem taking critisism and dishing it out. I think that if this forum became too PC I and many of the members would lose interest so debate and even a little aggresiveness is fine. I just think you could have done it a little better that’s all.
I guess it’s like that cartoon drawing of Mohammed everyone is whining about.
Could they post it. Yes they can. Should they have done it? I doubt it.
Honestly, if I could have insulted him on 19 different levels, I would have.
I am thoroughly sick and tired of “faggot” and “deviant” being thrown around on these boards.
I would be just as aggrieved if “kike” or “nigger” was used so casually.
Now, am I perfect? FUUUUUUCK, no. I’ve had problems with drugs and alcohol. Shitty relationships with women. Used to shoplift in high school. (Books, and only from chain stores, but it’s still wrong.)
So, knowing this, I don’t believe I’ve ever been the first to pass jusgement on anyone on this board.
But, when I see someone with hatred and stupidity emanating–unbidden–from their very core, then I will come down on them like Mjolnir, mystical hammer of Thor.
More specifically, when someone comes onto this board crowing about taking speed and considering gastric bypass to lose the weight he gained sitting on his ass with a federally-mandated piece of jewelery around his ankle…well, when that guy calls my friends and family “faggots” and “deviants” and “perverts”…
Well, fuck him.
And, Grey, for our political differences, I know you’re a smart guy, too. I think you’ve picked the wrong side in this argument.[/quote]
I think I have definately gotten in over my head in this little debate. I just do not for the life of me understand why there is so much protection of gays. Look…I never give them a second thought…it’s a preference like if somebody likes a tall woman or like Testonly fat ugly ones.
At the end of the day it’s not that important a subject. Lately there seems to be such crazy publicity in and around this subject. Gay marriage…gay rights…gay adoption of children…gay awareness…
I think I will sidestep this issue as much as possible.
I recieved an e-mail from an exgirlfriend of mine in Italy last week.
You know what she told me? She said she was in a disco in Descenzano and got it on with two other females. This is a girl who I had slept with and believe me she is one hot number. She has decided to try being a lesbian.
I asked her why? She replied that being gay is all the rage in Europe these days and finding the right guy is impossible cause they are all idiots(except me of course).
Homosexuality is in. Hetero is old school and boring.
I give up.
Oh and Harris. Thanks for the compliment and I return the same.
Oh and I promise not to make any derogatory remarks about gays.
Probably if my brother or family friend was gay I’d get pissed off like you do.
