135. Don't leave

Fri Dec 20, 2013, 03:01 PM

Dec 2013

I've had posts hidden for the same kind of thing, using verbiage people didn't like about another culture in defense of women's human rights. That's why my tag line is "I am not a good liberal" because I'm not, I find fault with anyone who wants to ignore the abuse of women in favor of cultural preference.

Just out of curiosity, how did that post violate any TOU? BlueStreak Dec 2013 #26

I agree. painesghost Dec 2013 #29

I thought it was poorly worded, not nasty BlueStreak Dec 2013 #46

My thought exactly. Because obviously everyone in India is rapist, entire counrtry is "filthy", idwiyo Dec 2013 #81

Well, that actually is true, depending on how poetic a person is trying to be BlueStreak Dec 2013 #86

Are you seriously suggesting that entire country consists of rapists? idwiyo Dec 2013 #90

I condemn the ENTIRE country for maintaining this rape culture BlueStreak Dec 2013 #93

Including women & children. Do you also condemn entire US for been racist? idwiyo Dec 2013 #94

Yes, and yes BlueStreak Dec 2013 #97

You condemn entire India (including women and childern) for rapes. idwiyo Dec 2013 #100

I condemn the NATION of India for maintaining a rape culture BlueStreak Dec 2013 #102

You forgot to condemn entire nation of Israel for the actions of their government. idwiyo Dec 2013 #106

No I didn't. See post #97 BlueStreak Dec 2013 #110

You condemn the government, not the nation. Why's that? idwiyo Dec 2013 #113

I don't make a distinction between the two BlueStreak Dec 2013 #137

Really? You sure did when it came to India & US vs Israel. idwiyo Dec 2013 #147
