I will then make mildly insulting comments, if you take insult I will call you oversensitive.

Straight Privilege is that strong.

1. Yes. Exactly.
Astounding isn't it?

2. Is it asking too much to expect a certain amount of respect posting in here?
I've seen that kind of thing before in here.

For instance. I hate guns. Hate them. But I wouldn't go into the Gun forum and post "All gun owners are a bunch of assholes". Again, I don't quite get the appreciation of guns. But I wouldn't go into a forum, created for a specific group of people and completely disrespect them.

4. Ah, but that is not the issue
Edited on Thu Oct-09-08 08:29 AM by TechBear_Seattle
The issue is: would you go into the Gun forum, ask about the right to bear arms and phrase it in a way that implied, without actually saying, that only assholes support the right to bear arms?

3. I missed all of it....
I was working on some Mardi Gras costumes for the afternoon and early evening, then logged on before going to bed and.... HOLY CARP!!!!

:wtf: is going on here? I somewhat expect it in GD-P (sad as that is), but now they stroll over to GLBT and start flamebaiting with immunity (more or less)?

I think DU has about run its course with me, if that's the way things are going to be handled....
