Wrong wording.

It was mentioned.

As if I've violated some sort of sacrosanct rule where I'm only supposed to call out those on the left. And if I have a problem with something someone on the right has written, I've somehow broken a law of nature.

We'll leave this here because I don't feel like arguing all night long. And there was no reason why this had to blow up like it did. I just went back and read my initial reply to you. It really wasn't all that awful.

I don't care what you like.

You said what you said. I defended myself. No way that was getting left alone. If you want to think I am a "Rightie" who got taken to task...think it. That wasn't being left where it was.

I don't get the need for any explanation. I do get all I need to get. I get that I have been called some Shitty names here by "Lefties" because of what I believe. I don't ever remember you flaming them so personally when they did.

What I appreciate is when the picture is a clear one.

Personally? Nothing was personal. I only addressed what you wrote. How is that getting personal?

This is what I mean. Getting so unhinged because I had "the gall" to take issue with something you wrote.

Between Inner Dirt and now you....like I need more heat on me and this site.

Someone needs to point out the obvious to some of you. It's like you have no clue what you are writing or the impact it has.

Don't worry about more heat on you and this Site from me.

[PaceAdvantage]

Oh don't worry, I won't.

Then why did you go about your business the way you did?

Right. There was no reason for my reaction. None at all.

Everybody has an opinion about everything here. Silence on this, though...interesting.

Prejudice isn’t decided by opinion. Everyone knows who and what they are…Whether they care to admit it.

I’m betting most wouldn’t care to defend the indefensible.

Yeah. Nobody ever does that here.

It's OK, anyway. I've been shouted down before.

Because I'm sick and tired of reading homophobic posts on here from a variety of members.

Whether it's the semi-regular Pete Buttigieg garbage, to the lesbian couple friends who find "flamboyancy" repulsive, to you posting about how you've seen gays doing "abhorrent" stuff in the town square.

They/you likely don't even realize what they are posting is offensive.

I won't stand idly by any longer when it comes to this stuff. Nobody gets a free pass.

Serious question, have you been around many gay people? I really find your condescending reaction to a lesbian couples views that I shared off putting.
By today's definition they would be called homophobic, of which well over 50% of the population is. Mayor Pete brings it on himself by going out of his way to remind everyone he is gay. You are taking an odd minority stance for a conservative. My views are like Martin Luther King's I believe in a color blind society, I am sick of all these identity politics, they are divisive. That includes identifying people by sexual orientation. I don't see any heterosexual flags or parades, so why do we need the opposite of that? How about we all identify as human beings? I think that is what Dr. King wanted.
