Yet another strike against civil rights when it has to do with gay people

Wow, is that like, a total dodge of the point and just a lame ad hominem? Yup, looks like it.

Maybe Capt has gotten a leak about our agenda to convert children to homosexuality.

It is a good debate, and if you [Capt. Dizle] continue to be such a flammer about this than please try to ignore the thread instead of giving straight, white, christian men a bad name.

Thank you.

If Capt. Drivel [yuk yuk yuk!] wasn't interested in gay civil rights issues, you have to wonder why he opened the thread in the first place and bothered to post...

I agree with that. But man, its like having digital cable and 273 channels of "Roots" reruns. After a bit it just gets on the nerves.

See, you've got your cable and Roots reruns. Gay life/issues are something you encounter...once a day? Twice a day? Flicking through the metaphorical channels and stumbling across it. Meanwhile, we're trapped in the Sony store where all the TV's are perma-glued onto the same channel and the stereos are blasting out the same music. Everyone else is walking around not noticing cause they're humming along. So, sometimes, we have to shout a bit louder and more often to get heard.

The most annoying bit, though, is actually coming across something we like. Perhaps a new CD player or the Institution of Marriage. We think, "yeah, that'll be nice. Perfect even. It'll suit us just fine and hey, everyone else can get it so surely we have equal rights to partake of it too." Then suddenly a big glass cage falls from the sky and it's all Nooo, silly homos. You can't have that. It's not for you. Equal rights? Pfff. You wouldn't know what to do with it, you'd make a mockery of it, you can't even load the CD problem or work the tiny buttons. Meanwhile, while we're getting this lecture, the tour guide is turning a blind eye to the people skull ****ing the twitching corpse of, say, Marriage by getting hitched while drunk and then divorcing thirty seconds later and releasing a song about it. It just gets damn annoying after a while.

Sorry for mixing metaphors.

I guess any thread that has been posted in by a known homosexual, Boris. Seems to me that Captain Dizzy oughtta leave the OT before he catches that homersexshual bug that's been goin' 'round 'festin everybodies.

(since we're bringing up lame TV analogies here...)

The idea of "gay infestation" sorta reminds me of that episode of M*A*S*H where Hawkeye and Trapper paint that bigot brown, claiming that he got an infusion of the "wrong colored blood."

I concur. However, flaming doesn't do any good. This is why we have these threads. It's about a right to chose, as Tia puts it, or what civil liberty is.

We debate homosexuality a lot, because it transcends all issues of discrimination while we can ignore other facets; race, religion, nationality, social class, etc...

It is a good debate, and if you [Capt. Dizle] continue to be such a flammer about this than please try to ignore the thread instead of giving straight, white, christian men a bad name.

Japher, I might not agree with you but I appreciate the sincerity of your comments. I'll be more than pleased to shut it down out of respect for you and all the other posters.

Thanks Japher Dizzle take the drivel and the fishizzel somewhere else! (did I do that right guys?)


My thread isn't the one.....you will find this Dragon to be very gay friendly. And I am white anglo saxon etc....and I live in Redneckville, however, I believe very strongly in each persons rights to make free will choices and I do expect that other people especially school officials not to interfer with that right.

Oh and on your hispanic note ( no offense to any hispanics intended) They are raising a stink as a matter of fact they are now stating that the phrase Illiegal Imagrant is offensive to the very nature of their being and that they are now going to be in the process of lobbying to get a law passed to make the phrase more politcally correct to II. I forgot the mans name but he is the head of the Hispanic Colaition for something or other.....heard this on the radio the other day anyway he says the term Illegal Imagrant is offensive, degrading etc. So yeah, your point would be as they say OUTTTTA HERE!

[Elok]

High school relationships make a mockery of love, marriage, and commitment regardless of who's involved. Ban 'em all, I say!

[Kaak]

This rule won't get overturned by the courts. Schools can require dress codes, and schools can make other tules as they see fit.

[Japher]

Illegal Imigrant is offensive? Yeah, I guess so, I suggest we call them "deportee"!

[Boris Godunov]

Public schools are under obligation to protect the free association rights of students, as the ACLU has been forced to prove time and again to them. So if it's a public school, I don't see how this rule can stand.

the prom is seriously far too overrated. who gives a **** about it anyway? people don't need to be spending upwards of $500 for a crappy school dance.

[Tiamat]

Agreed Boris.

It's not just Boris this thread is screaming with homosexuals Boris, Mr. Fun, Starchild......come on guys infect Cpt. Drivel with your gayness

[Spiffor]

The idea of "gay infestation" is a disgrace. We do have threads regarding gay issues (such as this one), and I'd assume it is normal for people to speak about gay issues in such threads.

In other threads, I don't remind having seen systematic threadjacking from our gay posters. And unless you think the sexual orientation of someone has any impact on their opinion on Iraq, food regulations, or PC vs Mac, then I think the idea of "gay infestation" is preposterous, if not vomitive.

If Asher, a gay, posts in a Mac vs PC thread, is he guilty of waging a "gay infestation"?

Ahhh but this one for this girl is special because it's also her birthday present to get to go all fancied up as it were with who she wants.
