I think an "abomination" is a vile word to use towards gays....

no one in their right mind would choose to be gay....no one....

its an abnormal occurence IMO...a defect.....

but they are God's children too...like it or not....

Go to sleep dear. Adults are discussing things in terms that will just make you cry and stamp you little feet in frustration.

This from the newbie who'd only contribution to this thread was the (oh so hilarious) "Gay St/Church St" picture that EVERYONE on this website has already seen a dozen times.

Here is my point (see of you can get it into your head): The only reason that I am even aware of your existence is because you have you have been bombarding me with incorrect, lazy, incoherent pro-libertarian posts on another thread. Now, it stands to reason that if you are an honest libertarian -and far be it from me to presume that there are any people on FR who are calling themselves libertarian just because they want pot legalized, right newbie? -if you are an honest libertarian, you would be an advocate of gay rights. After all, the government has no business sticking it's nose in a guy's bedroom. Am I right? So, if you want to call yourself a libertarian, get it through your head that you're not smart enough to make people laugh (except at you) and start advocating for buttsex. See how that goes over with the evangelical crowd that this thread has attracted. And while you're at it, please live up to your thread to exit my life forever, as promised several posts ago on the other thread.

You can either be an honest libertarian and defent the soddomites, or you can be someone who just can't admit that his drug habit is effecting his life. It's either or. You can be both or neither.

BTW, if you want to be taken seriously by people who haven't seen your lame movie you might want to avoid using a picture that looks suspiciously like Freddie Mercury as your signature. At least when you are posting to a pro-gay editorial written by an obnoxious liberal who's at least as clueless as you are.

My, you are the hostile, whining, lying little nobody today, aren't you!

I suspect you couldn't get that way over night, and have been practicing for years. Bad relationship with your father? Stepfather maybe? Just guessing. You exhibit all the symptoms of, well, someone with a lot of symptoms.

Now stop lecturing your betters, projecting your own perversions, and go away. You are too infantile and dishonest to bother with. And you are as verbose as a closeted gay Democrat whose just been caught giving candy to a little boy, and just as wholesome.

Now say goodbye, and try not to put on a dress, at least for one day.

No barf alert??

Concurring bump. The first sentence alone, besides being a colossal lie, is a first-rate splorker all by itself.

[article] ...military service members forced to serve in silence or discharged for being honest about who they are....

This guy is so deep underwater, he's fish-food. He's in liberal emote-a-thon mode.

In riposte to the babble blathered above, we might reflect soberly that axe-murderers face even more severe penalties "for being honest about who they are" -- and whose fault is that?

Poor little axe-murderers. Boo-hoo-hoo!

This guy has experienced a moral collapse, similar to the late Philip Agee's when he left CIA and went over to the Cuban DGI and KGB to start writing propaganda for them.

You'll have to take that one up with the author of the Book of Genesis.

Instead of slinging around weak insults without actually making a point, how about just answering the charges?

I guess its because in addition to being ignorant,lazy, and deceitful you are also a weasel and a coward.

You were ignorant enough to post to me that all of the Founding Fathers were libertarians, even though I had pointed out to someone else a few posts earlier that this wasn't true by naming names. When I suggested that only newbies fail to read the thread before posting, you ranted about being called a newbie, and then lied about having read the thread because you are lazy and you try to lie your way out of your own stupidity. Now here you are on this thread, too much of a coward to openly support homosexuals, when the last time we heard from you, you were telling everyone what a hardcore libertarian you are. That makes you a weasel. And to top it all off, you imply that I might be gay among your insults. That just makes you dumb (you are a libertarian genius - sexual everyone's sexual orientation is supposed to be their own business for people like you). And inconsistent. But we knew both of those things already.

I can (and have) substantiated all of these charges quite clearly. I am expecting your pathetic response to me more lame insults with no substance. You have no business posting here on FR, and it has nothing to do with the fact that you think you are a libertarian.

You obviously failed to read and comprehend the thread, broken geezer.

You aren't worth conversing with. You have neither the temperament or intellect to rise above tossing insults, so insults are all you received in response from me. Now, I'm done even insulting you, for fear you are in the grip of Stockholm Syndrome.

You are not fixable, and now you're just boring and repetitive. Go find someone else to publicly spank you.

And good luck overcoming that latent homosexuality and substance abuse problem you see in everyone else who appreciates and understands freedom and personal responsibility.

BZT: I started this thread. I have a pretty good idea what it's about.

This is the thrird or fourth time you've insulted me, offered no original points, and then promised to exit my life forever. Perhaps you'll keep my word this time. I, otoh, engaged in the noble cause of saving you from your own hypocricy. I had the misfortunre of meeting you late last week because you came onto a thread I started late last week and posted a factually incorrect point to me. The fact that I had previously (and indisputably) refuted your point in an earlier post didn't sink in, so I asked you to read the thead. You didn't, and then lied about it. And away we went.

Here's the only point that matters now: If you are going to be on one thread insulting people who are not libertarians, you can't show up on another mocking gay people. Or whatever it is you think you were doing. If you're going to be a libertarian who fails to speak up for gay rights, that it becomes obvious that it IS just about the drugs for you. Be a man already.

BTW: You understanding of how the Stockholm syndrome works sucks, and your last sentence makes no sense. Are you calling me a latent homosexual with a substance abuse problem or are you suggesting that I help people like you who have those problems?

And, while I'm at it, do you still think that ALL of the Founding Fathers were libertarians, or have you figured that one out now? You are not fixable, and now you're just boring and repetitive. Go find someone else to publicly spank you. And good luck overcoming that latent homosexuality and substance abuse problem you see in everyone else who appreciates and understands freedom and personal responsibility.
