Re: Obama and Gay marriage

[quote=runningman;753670]How old are you 5?? Nice language. I can tell you are a butt pirate by the way you bad mouth me and anybody religious. Pathetic. You can't even have a CIVILIZED conversation about the topic.

I don't understand when the world turned upside down. Gays like you ddr can go around bash everybody straight and then we straight people are supposed to bow down to you?? So we aren't allowed to say anything against you guys but you can just BASH THE SHIT out of us?? OHHH OK.

Marriage is not just a word it is a promise in front of God that the two souls become basically one. In the promise to raise a family and pass on our values. Fags [U][B]like you[/B][/U] wouldn't get that because you are focused on only yourselves and think of only yourselves.

The Dems own the house and senate. That was my point.

You are pretty smart hating on religion like that. That could be considered slander or hate speech.

Where are all the people bashing ddr for his language. Whenever I say something against the tide I have 10 people come on and ask me to watch what I say?? Favortism on here is pathetic.[/quote]

Is this for real?

First of all, I haven't seen anyone bash straight people in this thread or anywhere else on this forum. This whole gay marriage thing has exactly zero to do with straight people and affects straight people zero. Anyone whose marriage is "threatened" or "compromised" because a gay couple they don't know is getting married somewhere probably has deeper problems with their marriage.

With regard to the actual language of your post, though, it is both troubling and eye-opening. I don't know where to begin. Notwithstanding your at-times maniacal ramblings, I've actually backed you up on this forum in the past, both publicly and privately. Reading this, though, makes me wonder why.

But you know what's pathetic?

Your talking about having a civilized conversation and how bad it is to hate on people and call people names... and then calling ddr names and broadly referring to homosexuals as "butt pirates" and "fags".

Are you serious? Does it not even register in that brain of yours that [B]you[/B] [B]just did the [I]exact same thing[/I] you accused him of doing?[/B]

Thanks for making it clear to us that you are hateful and discriminating against people of different sexual orientations. :evil:

It's not my call to make, but personally I think that your discriminatory comments should not be tolerated in this forum.

i am only dropping down to your level, it took a few baseball hits to the head for me to do it but i did... you may have understood what i said but now i dont know.

also, just because the dems own both the house and the senate doesnt mean everything Obama puts forward will pass both.... if you think 100% dems and republicans vote along party lines, i dont know what you are smoking.

Re: Obama and Gay marriage

HAHAHAHAH You guys kill me. He fucking rips me an asshole and I retaliate and I'm an ass???

How are you dropping to my level when you lashed out first. No I dropped to your level against my better judgement.

He starts it with I'm a fucking moron and I'm supposed to do what?? Take it?? Maybe if I was Miro and not so "MACHO" I don't take shit.

He calls me a stupid southerner. He insulted ALL SOUTHERNERS in the USA and I'm an ass because I insulted one gay who was speaking like an asshole.

Grow Up politics section!!! He insults half of the USA and I insult one gay idiot and I'm insensitive?? What about the guy that insulted half of the USA?? What about the guy that insulted anybody who is religious?? Believe me you guys are the minority out in the real world.

Ridiculous..

^Members here have suffered your foolishness plenty of times, every now and it would be wise for you to take the high road too, especially when a topic strikes another member on a more personal level (which happens more often than you think evidently) you would have much more influence.

Has it occurred to you, by the way, that gay people might take offense to your [I][B]unwillingness [/B][/I]to call it marriage? Why does your opinion necessarily trump theirs?

"He started it...he's calling me NAMES...Mommy, it's not fair...wah wah wah."

:boobaby:

Yes, they shouldn't have called you mean names. But sometimes it's more mature to take the high road. The "internet tough guy" act really makes you look like an insecure child, and criticizing others for saying mean things and then attacking people with comments like "butt pirate" makes you look like you're not even intelligent enough to recognize the irony of your own statements.

So next time they do that, just calmly call it to their attention and ask them not to do it again. It's what I've been trying to do with you for a while now.

#1224889Post 52 of 67

Re: Obama and Gay marriage

do you actually believe that this bothers me??? What I don't appreciate as I'm sure any real man (not a sissy gay boy BJ) will tell you is that you shouldn't talk about a mans family. My girlfriend has nothing to do with this. Attack me all you want I'm a big boy but that was uncalled for.

And you all support Man BJ's comments by not saying anything about it. You should all be ashamed of yourselves and the MODS for that matter for letting a rant like that stay posted.

The way I see it I have two options. I can become a gay hater over this and lash out or I can just walk. You see I will let you guys in on a little secret. This is the reason why mariner left. He couldn't take the absolute extreme left wing liberal views on here and if you don't go with it you are a racist or a gay basher or whatever..

Honestly I have seen this board really decline in intelligence and constructive conversation over the last couple years. It really is disappointing because I loved this board. I had great times. But for the mods to keep rubbish like that on the board and not rip it down when talking about a mans family, religion, and god I can't support.

So all you fuckers can go circle jerk yourselves from now on about how smart you are while watching your country decline to a third world.

#1224903Post 53 of 67

Re: Obama and Gay marriage

I have read through this thread a few different times, and each time I'm more confused than the time before. It starts with this statement:

[quote=runningman;753329] Everyone better be careful of not being anti-straight and anti-religion.[/quote]

I've read the posts that precede that over and over again, and I see no one being anti-straight or anti-religion. It simply isn't there. There are some people taking issue with YOU, and you are evidently straight and religious, but the fact that they disagree with YOU doesn't mean they disagree with being straight or being religious. You might have well have accused us of being anti-Canadian for all that has to do with the posts before you made this comment. In fact, as far as I'm aware, most of the people discussing this with you are straight, and for all I know, some are religious.

It continues:

[quote=runningman;753429]look at all the straight bashing going on here.. I'm the only one who put a stance.. [/quote]

Again, maybe you are privy to posts that I am not, but I am not seeing the straight-bashing going on at all. I see a lot of YOU-bashing, but it doesn't look to have a lot to do with the fact that you are straight.

[quote=runningman;753715]HAHAHAHAH You guys kill me. He fucking rips me an asshole and I retaliate and I'm an ass???[/quote]

This is starting to make some sense. Normally, someone rips you a NEW asshole, but the way this is phrased, it would appear that this is your first. Here's hoping that finally having a way to dispense with some of that waste will brighten up your demeanor a bit.

#1224911Post 54 of 67

Re: Obama and Gay marriage

[quote=runningman;754215]do you actually believe that this bothers me???[/quote] Yes, because you're obviously still whining and making a big deal out of it.

[quote=runningman;754215]You should all be ashamed of yourselves and the MODS for that matter for letting a rant like that stay posted.[/quote] Why? We leave your rants posted, don't we?

[quote=runningman;754215]The way I see it I have two options. I can become a gay hater over this and lash out or I can just walk.[/quote] The way I see it, you already chose the former option. We all [I]wish[/I] you'd choose the latter one.

[quote=runningman;754215]You see I will let you guys in on a little secret. This is the reason why mariner left. He couldn't take the absolute extreme left wing liberal views on here and if you don't go with it you are a racist or a gay basher or whatever..[/quote] Thanks for the "secret". Now why don't you follow him on out?

I'm sorry, I've tried to be patient with you... But I swear, you're like the North Korea of the [ms] forum; you're always bitter, arrogant, negativistic, hateful, and belligerent in everything you do and say. Other people now throw personal insults at you (which isn't right), but you always seem to lead the pack by a mile. If someone sees things differently thank you, you're always the [I]first[/I] to personally attack them as an idiot, etc. instead of focusing your criticism on the arguments and opinions.

And guess what? Nobody here likes you or respects you because of that. It's obvious at this point that you will just always be a thoroughly unpleasant presence around here; and it's obvious that everyone else will always dislike you and side against you.

So if that's the way you're going to be... then don't let the door hit your ass on the way out. If you think you're so much smarter than the rest of us, then go find another place where your grand intelligence is appreciated. No one is forcing you to put up with all of us "idiots". Just leave. Honestly, no one will miss you.

[quote=runningman;754215] sissy gay boy BJ[/quote]

^^^ ha ha ha YOU said it

Like Toasty and Miroslav said above, the problem here is you and your assumption that I am gay is, (like all of your assumptions), completely wrong. But that matters not. My only intolerance is towards your intolerance. Why not pick on disabled children next time? Then, of course, anyone who disagrees suddenly becomes a disabled child according to your flawed logic.

As for your girlfriend, yes I am truly sorry. But not for what I said, just for her.. Goodnight i'm bored of you now

lol, have you even bothered to look in the mirror recently? you are complaining about the very thing YOU do on a day to day basis.

dont you see any kind of problem where you have 5+ different people all agreeing that you are the problem here... not us.

i wouldnt have a problem with you if you posted a link and some thought provoking opinion about an article and ask our opinions BUT YOU DONT DO THAT. what you do is post some story, dont even bother reading it, and make your own conspiracy theory about it to try and blend that story to your thinking. AND THEN, once people with intelligence actually read the story and provide their opinions on that article, you bash them and call them names constantly because they dont agree with the almighty runningman... this has happened in almost every thread you have started. YOU are the problem, not us.

Miroslav should have a plaque made in his honor for taking the high road 99% of the time with you and not dumbing down to your level while you have constantly battered him personally for no reason at all.

Re: Obama and Gay marriage

why is everyone on this thread so anti everything.. i dont think ive ever seen so much hatred towards anybody like this over a childish issue..

i understand where everyone gets soo blasted about it.. but is it really necessary to blast someone elses family, religion, or personal opions so rudely??.. im new to this board and ive been goin thru all the threads.. and reading this from the beginning.. i dont even know where it started to get into lets bash this person.. or that person becusae our views are so different.. is it that bad to have totally differnt ideals and morals??

im gay i dont see anything wrong with calling someone a fag or butt pirate i eat pussy and im cool with it.. if someone came out and called me a butt pirate i would come out and say your a bitch fucker and laugh that shit off or if some bitch came out and called me a dyke id just be like..you love ugly dicks aint nothing wrong with a good set of tities

but i still believe in a God.. u guys come off as if ur gay u dont have a religion.. well i do!.. im buddhist.. my grams was (RIP <3 always) a buddhist nun for crying out loud.. yea she didnt approve of my life style but she still wanted me to go to the temple.. she still accepted me for who i am.. and left it at that.. i dont see anything wrong with runningmans posts.. i laughed at that.. but everyone elses.. WOW!! SHIT!! u guys got some anger issues or what!??!

are u guys gay?? y dont u just come out and say it..cuase.. i have never met someone who was gay and talked to a straight person like that.. the ppl i know have respect for whoever and whatever their views are.. we just say.. well thats too bad.. cuase ur missin out..

as a gay woman.. i would NEVER bash on someone elses religion.. weither they be gay or straight.. thats just how i was brought up.. its disrespectfull to see.. to hear and to READ!! no one should ever do something like that.. moraly.. its totally uncalled for

i joined this board becuase i LOVE MUSIC!! and politics always interested me and i stumbled on this.. i am APPALED at what EVERYONE is saying not just this running man guy who everyone on here seems to hate!..

yea his post threw me for a loop.. but not at much as bobjuice for saying "Fuck you, fuck your church and fuck your non-existent god".. and to go and blast his family is a lil uncalled for.. i see everyone on here blasting this runningman guy but.. doesnt anyone see this bobjuice post!!!!

politics is for debating! i dont see any debating on here all i see is Bashing becuase someone is religious and doesnt believe gays should carry the word marriage..

im all for equal rights.. and that means ur entitled to ur opinion but when someon comes out and calls u a "Fucking Moron" for stating what u believe in.. i think thats totally uncalled for..

im not backing up this running guy yea he came out with some rude comments.. but other post on here were just as bad or even worse..

i dont know maybe its becuase im a girl.. im too nice.. i get offended sometimes.. and i like to act as mediator sometimes.. i read all the post by everyone.. and it doesnt seem like anyone has made a SOLID point!!!

its just turned into runningman is an ass!.. i was some good solid opinions enough of this fuck u fuck this!.. cause really.. it just makes u guys seem like idiots.. stop focusing on one person.. cuase thats what ur doing! lets get to the fucking issue!! u guys are acting like closet gays.. are u guys gay?? is that y this thread is so touchy?? if u are just say.. im gay i dont appreciate u calling me that..

dont come out and say "YOUR A FUCKING MORON" those are fighting words.. shit i would go after u too.. lol kinda not really.. but still.. ACT LIKE ADULTS!!

or what was the fucking point on me joining this forum .. so i could get stupid with everyons irrelevant post!

i know runningmans stance.. he doesnt want gays to have the word "Marriage" he states they can have a different name for it..

but WHAT THE FUCK IS EVERYONE ELSES STANCE.. isnt that what this thread is all about..

my stance = yea id like to get married in the future.. but having friends who are catholic, christian church goers.. i understand the whole marriage is for a man and woman who are goin to have a family..

i could use the word "Union" or "harmony" or whatever else the thesaurus throws at me.. marriage is for church goers.. give me another word for it and id be cool with it.

just kidding. good to have a sense of humor when posting in the polotics section. i prefer to avoid this section and talk about real issues, real BS and thats in the General section. :p

#1224978Post 60 of 67

Re: Obama and Gay marriage

^^^Hi yoyob, The politics section is given a certain amount of leniency due to the often times sensitive nature of the topics being discussed.

You may want to stick to the PR & GYY section because most of the people who frequent this section are quiet nice to each other in those sections. Nobody would get away with saying some of the things being said here in other sections.

So don't judge MS by a handful of threads in the political section, it's an inaccurate representation of the members on this board at large. With regard to the rudeness your seeing, it happens once every 20 or so threads, and sometimes it is more called for than other.

This one isolated thread has become one of the ugliest, yes I think the mods want to see the individuals on here work it out on their own, sense they have all proven to be able to do so on most occasions, sometimes simply by being perfectly cordial in other threads about other topics.

Re: Obama and Gay marriage

[QUOTE=yoyob;754306]im not backing up this running guy yea he came out with some rude comments.. but other post on here were just as bad or even worse.. [/QUOTE] You're actually right. And I don't support saying those things to him, even though I disagree with just about everything he says. But what you see in this thread is the product of a whole history of our interactions with him that you don't understand as a newcomer. By now, runningman's bitterness and hostility is somewhat legendary around here and it goes way back. A lot of people have witnessed his rude verbal smackdowns of others, and so some people have just learned to dish the rudeness back at him right out of the gate - not saying that is good, but that's just how it is: he is reaping what he sows. It's a vicious circle.

As for me... all I can say at this point is: this is not worth dragging out any further. Let's all just chill, me included.

runningman: Stay or go as you wish. Say whatever you want. We'll all probably keep strongly disliking you for the way you handle yourself here, but it's all good. At the end of the day, it's just the internet and none of what you or I say really matters anyway.

#1225050Post 62 of 67

Re: Obama and Gay marriage

^^ Edited

My apologies to anyone offended by what i said back there - i can't say i regret it as i meant it at the time of writing and thought it justified. The truth is though, someone has since joined this board and seen that as their first experience of [ms] which is not on and that i do regret. So, there you go, i'm big enough to say i'm sorry and i'd like to think that people on this board generally know that i come in peace and will excuse one mis-judged, angry (and a little drunken) rant. Apologies to the running man as well - you're quite right there was no need for what i said but if this makes you stop and think about the offence you cause constantly then maybe there is a positive in it all. I have a feeling that won't be the case but that's for you to deal with. peace :Gay:

Hey I'm sorry for saying Fag and butt pirate. It was wrong. I was just fired up for being attacked on the marriage thing.

Didn't mean any dis respect to gay people it was bad judgement and in bad taste.

Hopefully we can just move on from here and really debate things in the future.
