YOU SAID: My preference is for a more straightforward statement, such as, “I don’t like it when you use language that I morally disapprove of on a thread I’ve started,”
WHAT I SAID: A personal note. I do not like the derogatory terms for gays used on a thread I post.
That seems pretty close, but because you said Nough said, I guess enough has been said. I declare you the winner and I will battle the other side instead of our side.
Agreed, but you certainly went to Chick-Fil-A the other day. Did you see anyone there who would do such a thing? Neither did I.
He just made that up, like Leftists always do in these situations. A REAL death threat would have a police report attached, especially with this guy.
I’m sorry, I just couldn’t get all the way through this video.
Perhaps, it was all the drivil about him and how he felt. Occures to me he should have considered all that before his actions. I’m taught that a “real” apology includes an act of contrition. Where’s the contrition? “Opps, I got caught” doesn’t qualify, does it?
Uhhhh...that whacked out pig in the vid would drive anybody gay. Poor Adam....
Do we see an offer from Chick Fil A as a drive through attendant? He's got 4 kids after all...
Ashes on his head, indeed!
I agree, I’m not happy with some of the comments either.
My father had a saying that he said has always proven true, and Mr. Smith would be well served to learn this: “It never pays to be mean to people.” Only my father used a different word instead of “mean”. LOL
He always told us that he was nice to customers, no matter what.
I’m sure Mr. Smith won’t be unemployed for very long.
“That is how I feel about using the term “faggot.” “
Please refrain from using the liberal propaganda word for homosexual: “Gay”. They are not “gay”, they are homosexuals. The homosexuals have propagandized their sodomy as to being something happy and fun by using the word “gay”, and their lifestyles and sexual practices are anything but happy and fun, especially for children. They are homosexuals and I find it offensive that we call them “gay” as to remove the term from American vernacular that was once a routinely used term that described ourselves.
RE: They are homosexuals and I find it offensive that we call them “gay” as to remove the term from American vernacular that was once a routinely used term that described ourselves.
Described “ourselves”? Oh, you are part of the group. Okay, I will call you a homosexual instead of gay. No problem.
Besides you trying to be a smart alec, yes, I am gay, happy and fun, but I am not a homosexual. Maybe you like to be subservient to liberals with their war of words but I prefer to win. Republicans have lost so many battles because they have allowed the liberals to set the terms. Thanks for playing the establishment Republican game.
In 16 years on this forum and in all the activism in which I have been involved, which is considerable, I don’t think my reputation is being subservient to liberals. Ask the Democratic Underground.
At times there are different ways we win. I have been in their faces many, many times over the years. In this particular case, I thought the tactic of taking the high road was preferable. I wanted to establish the left as the real haters. In this particular matter, when we appear to be the haters it makes it more difficult to accomplish that end.
Our side generally wants to defend the institution that has served society well for thousands of years -— marriage. I am opposed to same sex marriage, not because I hate homosexuals, but because it is better for society. God will judge them as he does all of us. We are all flawed human beings. Let them just go live their lives and stay out of our faces. When it appears that we come from a position of hate, it gives them ammunition, it dilutes our argument, and makes it more difficult to make our argument one that is taken seriously.
Sodomite, faggot, fudge packer, pervert, get AIDS and die, rot in hell, etc. may make you feel good. But does it advance our argument in the culture war?
Establishment Republican? That’s funny.
I will call the fudge packers whatever I want to within forum rules -you can pack sand.
I responded to someone else. “You can pack sand.” What a nice guy. I’ve been her since 1996 and have met only about a dozen people with whom I would not want to share a beer. Now 13.
