Bru offends, and he doesn't apologise for that. Yet, he's offended by
that whole list of things, and expects people to change
Respect works both ways Bruce.

re Resp:97 - Gosh where to start...
1) So you think that it is only ok for rich people to have opinions if
they are conservative opinions? You dont think it is possible for rich
people to care about poor people or for our society as a whole?
2) Imagine how many gay and lesbians feel when people rub their
heterosexuality in *their* faces. You probably do that all the time.
Anyhow, fwiw, I have never seen any gay people exposing their genitals
in public but I probably dont frequent the same back alleys and gay
bathhouses as you do.
3) You dont read porn? Please. I could have sword I have heard you make
references to Playboy. Maybe I am mistaken.
4) I know. Child sexual abuse is a big problem. Most liberals will
agree with that. A lot of republicans fuck their kids, btw. This isnt a
problem related to political beliefs.
5) Alcohol is dangerous. There are also dangers associated with pot. It
is however *less* dangerous than alcohol. For one thing, no one has
ever overdosed on pot or at least I have not been able to find a
documented case of that happening. Anyhow, it should be legal as should
most recreational drugs. I always find it interesting that republicans
like to go on about how government needs to stay out of our lives. "We
need a free market. We need lower taxes. Etc." Yet, they feel it is
somehow important to keep a person from sitting on their living room
couch and smoking a doobie.
6) Well, fwiw, I have had a few very conservative professors in my time
too. Also, none of them have ever not allowed me to express my views in
class (assuming that my views were relevant to the subject being
taught, of course).
7) I am sorry that you feel insulted but in a karmic sense, I think you
have it coming. You come online and insult others all the time. Fair's
fair. If you can dish it out, you should be able to take it. I think
your problem is that you typically dish out arguments that are not
thought out well, have huge holes in them and then you get mad when
people shoot them down.

Actually, Tod, I'd disagree on QEFTSG. Sure, Carson is a prototypical swishy
queen - but he'd admit to that. The other guys are pretty much just guys.
Kinda like if you get a group of girls in the room. They're just the gay,
infinitely more talented Spice Girls.

tod is right. even though it is a *positive* stereotype, it is still a
stereotype. As someone recently pointed out to me, one wouldnt put a
show on TV called "Black Dudes teach White Guys Basketball" or "Jews
Teach Accounting" or "Asian Guide to Getting Good Grades".

I did read an article about how Americans had something to learn from
Asians when it came to preparing for exams and getting good grades.

You know, the last time I recall someone going ballistic about people
"exposing their genitals", it was Mark Ethan Smith.

You're tired of gays flaunting themselves in your face during marches?
Fine.
I'm sick and tired of having Christmas shoved down my throat until I GAG from
about late September through late December. The music, the decorations, the
pompous jerkoffs who look at me funny when I say I don't celebrate it, the
wishy washy feel-good specials on television, etc, etc, etc.
It goes both ways. I stay out of their face. You stay out of mine.

on marijuana, just my two cents-- I haven't seen anything that proves
it to be medicinally redeemable (you feel less pain because you're
stoned; that's about it), but it is one of the more benign drugs out
there. Tobacco is nasty-- and it's legal.
On the marches-- damn dude, you're actually attending them or
something? Leave it alone! I mean, fuck, I don't think most people
see this stuff unless they go out looking for it or the occasional
time it pops up in the media. Now I will admit they do cavort about
in lascivous ways at a lot of these events, but no one forced ya to go.
I do have my opinions about sexuality-- that often there is a lot of
mingling emotional and abuse issues that are in the way. Yeah, I'm
one of those twerps that believes in reparative therapy and all that.
But I definitely don't go around condemning the community about
their 'sinful ways.' They made their choice, and I made mine. I hope
there will be mutual respect, then. In other words, you're preaching
to the choir, here-- but you're not the music director.
There is a time to be principled and a time to be diplomatic. I
suggest diplomacy.
resp:116 Ironically, the relentless commercialism of the Fall/Winter
season turns off some of the mainstream religious. It seems like a
big long profit campaign. As far as tolerance and respect, we've
adopted so many 'heathen' traditions thanks to the Catholic church (in
the name of assimilation) that people should be more understanding in
light of this knowledge.
To boot, so many are casually religious that the notion is pretty
hypocritical.

I am refereing to the media and its hype of certain sexually expressive
events.
I also should not ignore the entertainment media which has found the new
"reality" tv a means to further stimulate the audience. Commercials and
advertizing are also to blame. I realize sex sells, but does it have to sell
everything?
Okay. So I am a prude. i learned to live with it a long time ago. No,
nudity does not bother me. You could walk naked into my living room and I
would not be particularly bothered nor excited by it. Yes, I have read
playboy. (but just for the articles, really.) It is the focus on sex that
bothers me. I have never enjoyed bachelor parties, nor the watching of porno
flicks with my buddies. I don't watch them with my wife either.
On the otehr hand, I also don't call people names because they disagree with
me.

Well, I am a heterosexual female who is not in a relationship at the
moment. And I get sick of straight couples constantly flaunting their
couple-ness... holding hands, making out, or squeezing each others'
butts as they walk in the mall. The whole world gives a message of "If
you're single, there's something wrong with you." But no one complains
about that.
Meanwhile, I know a gay male couple and a lesbian couple who both keep
clean and presentable homes, don't molest kids, treat their pets like
gold, don't go anywhere naked, don't really go to pride marches, don't
do drugs, don't go to bars or bathhouses. They pay taxes, volunteer for
civic projects, and don't flaunt their homosexuality in front of anyone,
whether at home or in public. And these couples both have stable,
committed, monogamous relationships.
I know people who smoke pot regularly for recreation. They do it in
their homes, alone. They don't have kids. They don't sell drugs to kids.
They do not go out in the streets if they've smoked. Nor do they drive.
The people I know who smoke it are otherwise law-abiding people whom I
know would not harm me or any other living creature. They hold down
steady jobs and pay bills.
They don't go to bachelor parties or watch pornos-- not to my knowledge,
anyway.

Yo, men, i was at a "killer" rave the other night (see how that word
just, offsets the others of its '''ilk'''?) and all the pot heads were
not there but the people instead were methkiddies, you know, the ones
who stay up all night killing bugs? yeah, them ones. well, anyway,
here i were and they was there too-- right next to me-- and i shouted in
their faces,
-- drugs support terrorism!
-- nah, pulling like a pendulum some girl's underwear.
and then they all started circling 'round me, rubbing their arteries, as
methkiddies learn to do, until their hearts were all in sync. now, as
you would believe, a reverberation started,
-- ow, man,
-- crack, said his bones
and then all the E crew started biting and knawing on me.
