In reply to the discussion: "Gays can't be trusted with children" [View all]Prism
(5,815 posts)I'm not one for posting individual call out threads. You can check my DU history, and you'll find they just don't exist to any large degree. In fact, my call out is coming a few weeks after the initial reveal of the comments.
Why wait a couple weeks?
Because the source of the comments continues to lie about them, shift stories based on the audience, and not truly own up to the damage that sort of thing causes. I went the civilized discussion route. It did not change the behavior a single bit. Once I saw the explanation for the comment shift yet again ("I didn't really mean it" , yeah, my patience came to an end.
Look, I appreciate a good scolding as much as the next person, but I feel your efforts are severely misdirected. Instead of expending this energy on me finally getting pissed enough over "gays can't be trusted with children" and posting a call out, maybe you can glance over at the person who said it and continues muddying the issue and telling lies.
I feel like that's a more deserving target for your chiding impulses here. JMHO.
