That should be *dunno why

I dunno people act all shocked and confused that these assholes do this stuff. It's not new. They've been doing it for a hundred years and getting away with it.

Must be pretty damn awesome to be a rich, white guy.

Ugh, that is awful. Cute top. Somewhat okay skirt. Darling shoes. The overall effect of it all together? Bleh.

Since you ARE still here, let me try to explain in a different way than others have why this comment was not "a-okay".

So you lied and you're not really done then.

So we can look forward to never hearing from your dumb ass again? Awesome!

Exactly. These roadside memorials are not an American ritual, and no American religion demands them. They're a new thing, and they're a public menace.

That's a bunch of crap. You can still make a grave in the graveyard even if the body isn't there. Or you can do it at your house.

This behavior (building cluttered memorials on the spot people were killed) is so bad where I live that we've had to start making laws against it.

Scientology is, in my view, another kettle of fish altogether, since the entire organization is essentially a con-game masquerading as a religious movement.

And then you took that statement and made up an entire straw man about how I was saying racism didn't exist or wasn't important. Thus, I accused you of not listening, because it's true. That's not anywhere near what I said.

I'm speaking primarily from an evangelical perspective. I know there are other more liberal churches that I disagree with on this issue,

Typical non-apology.

Everyone here was civil with you. Nobody even so much as insulted you.

It wouldn't make any difference. Atheists are bigoted assholes sometimes too. Religion is just a justification, not the cause.

I literally asked someone why what I said was offensive, and she deliberately refused to answer me.

Let's be real here. Nobody swore at you, and I did explain very succinctly and politely why the joke was offensive. You have no grounds for these complaints.

Yet another remake? Bleh

What's likely going to happen is some transwomen coming in here and telling you why your "compliment" was extremely hurtful. It'll mean more coming from them than from me.
