What a response (#27) to someone who posted an honest and legitimate comment!

Your agenda is clearly on the side of the homosexuals and their plans for this nation. Your rude, sarcastic remarks to others is totally uncalled for and out of place, but is indicative of your busy agenda.

It's difficult to defend the indefensible and you are doing a lousy job of it, thank God!

ACLUM Legal Director John Reinstein, who is one of the lawyers representing NAMBLA in the suit, acknowledged that "I think it is fair to say that most people disagree with NAMBLA and that many would find its publications offensive. Regardless of whether people agree with or abhor NAMBLA's views, holding the organization responsible for crimes committed by others who read their materials would gravely endanger important First Amendment freedoms."

WTHeck?

But they can hold right-wing-talk-radio responsible for Tim McVeigh and all the rest?

That's the biggest load of BS I have heard all day. Of course, it's still pretty early here so I expect more will be coming.

A 13-year-old boy in Arkansas dies after a horrific sexual crime but much of the national media ignore the story. Conservative columnists and other critics think they know why - because the boy's accused killers are gay

Ya know, if it was a priest I'm sure we'd hear no end of it.

[JesseHousman]

Vaudine, your comment is worth saving to throw again in the face of a pro-homosexual agenda agent.

The answer to the question is that they are not hiding it, but not giving it any real emphasis.

MEdia bias is pervasive. Just remember the confused and disapointed look in the faces of the talking heads when the DC Sniper turned out out to be two african-american men, who looked just a bit too chummy, and the dominant one was a muslim who bitterly hated the USA. Nope, no redneck here, like they had been saying for weeks. The look in their eye was telling.

How about their breakdown on election night 1994? I wish I had that on videotape, can any freeper dub me a copy? They were also clearly off their game on election night 2002.

By the same token, Brit Hume looked like he needed oxygen early in the night when it looked like Dubya was a goner, especially when he lost many of those swing states in the east and midwest, and Florida was called for Gore.

They can't hide it - it's pervasive, and it's dominant leftism. Thankfully they seem to be losing infleunces as people turn to more balanced news sources.

Oh, brother, what a joke you are. Can you be any more predictable?

Sorry if I don't bow at the feet of the FR anti-gay crusades, but that doesn't make me on 'their side'.

I don't like it when leftists paint all Christians, or all gun owners, or all conservatives with an unfairly broad brush. So, being philosophically consistent, I object when conservatives use the same broad brush on others. So hang me!

" I'm sure most of them live lives like us straights do"

Uuuuuh ... I don't think so. Perhaps you've been in the gold state a little to long.

Dont worry I wont! It is my business and every Americans business to protect children who cant protect themselves plus it would not be my business if it were not so much in the public eye.
You dont like my stance so be it but there is not a damn thing you can do about it.You have your opinion and when you voice it I will reply. This is an open board and all opinions count.

You say this as if I'm trying to have you arrested for sedition. Has anyone ever told you you have a persecution complex?

[autoresponder]

Basically you have one liberal "tolerant" poster on this thread defending willful and malicious planned violent criminal behavior including murder directed against small children.

Judge accordingly.

Don't be confused by other issues this poster advocates.

Defending the NABLA/ACLU kid rapists and kid killers pretty much negates all of that camo BS.

[Taxman]

"You can't post it enough."!!!!!!!!!

Absolutely! And I have another thought: Why don't we use the word "homosexual" as opposed to "gay" on this forum?

Seems to me that "gay" hardly describes how sick "homosexuals" really are?

Our use of the language to communicate thoughts and ideas suffers greatly when it is "toned down" to aviod offending offensive people!

IMHO, we ought to be about offending offensive people in the hope that they will quit being so damn offensive!

[JesseHousman]

Hate me for it if you like, but sometimes I play the devil's advocate.

I just knew you were fooling us! Time to take off your devil's advocate hat now and tell us what you really think about these perverts.

[JesseHousman]

I never use the word "gay" to describe a homosexual degenerate pervert.

The word "gay" still has meaning for me, but always in the proper sense.

To create a new race of people and call them "gays" is so repugnant that descriptive words fail me. Their agenda moves forward with the help of the courts, congress, media and, unfortunately, (dis) organized religion.

[Taxman]

Actually, homosexuals DO NOT live their lives like heterosexuals do -- that is why they are called homosexuals!

HST, I agree with you -- the news should not be censored because some group or person "might be" offended.

Societal rules are designe to exert pressure on socially offensive people for the express purpose of causing them to change their behavior and become better citizens.

If a society' good citizens are barred FRom criticising offensive people, then the society is doomed!

HELLO? CAN YOU HEAR ME NOW?

[Taxman]

That is the best news I have read today!

[Taxman]

Well, good on you. All I want is for the word we use to match the intent of our communication.

Using "gay" to describe homosexuals hardly correlates with the perversity of homosexual behavior, whereas the term homosexual does, at least for me and most other heterosexuals.

This Orwellian redefinition of terms to convey a more benign meaning and thus "de-stigmatize" the concept being described has got to stop somewhere!

Might as well be here.

Every living breathing person is a potential killer.

[gunnedah]

Sounds to me you may have certain latent desires that are now coming to the surface.Never can tell there,uh!

[TXnMA]

So hang me!

Got rope?
