Not everyone is like that. If there were no centrist voters then every election would be pointless.

You’re just a ray of sunshine, aren’t you?

Depends on the person.

Choices have consequences. Society has worked very hard to erase that fact, but it’s still there. I’m sorry you find Mormons so offensive that calling me one is a pejorative akin to “goody two-shoes.” I’m no better than anyone else, but I do recognize that if I choose to get intoxicated I am still accountable for my…

Did every Republican in the country come out in unanimous support for it?

You could win the Tour de France backwards with all this backpedaling you’re doing.

I can understand and respect that view. I agree the Republican party is a mess and nominating Trump put one of the worst people on the planet forward as their mascot. I still think there are good, ethical Republicans who are working to change the party. I don’t know if it’ll ever make a difference, but I still believe…

There’s legal, then there’s moral. I find more morally wrong with sexual assault than I do with theft, which I should have clarified in my earlier post. Yes, the law considers one worse than the other but that doesn’t dictate what actually is more destructive. Someone could steal pennies from millions of bank accounts…

I’m sure there are plenty of “safe space” comedy clubs for you to go to to hear jokes that won’t offend anyone, even you.

Heart sufficiently melted. Carry on.

Seems like the right thing to do is to hold the festival but not market it as anything special. Have the people they’ve chosen, but quit tooting their own horn about how woke you are. I know that won’t happen because “What’s the point of focusing on minorities if we can’t leverage it?”

Where did I say I was offended by your “joke?” Or anything else you said? I took issue with what you said because it was so plainly not-a-joke, but you insisted that it was. Taking issue =/= offense. If you’re going to stick to this “har har just a joke” thing you could at least not try to pull the “I’m too edgy for…

I shouldn’t have said “accused of sexual assault.” I should have said “guilty of sexual assault.”

Sounds like you had your wedding planned for you by just doing the opposite of the standard.

I’ve been to literally thousands of weddings because of my job and none of them were ANYWHERE NEAR as cool as this sounds. Congrats, you just named the one wedding I’ve ever actually wanted to attend.

I’ve worked in the wedding industry for years and if brides had half of your common sense then weddings would be a lot less stressful for everyone.

No wedding is unique. It’s all been done. And why do weddings have to be unique? I’d rather go to the same fun wedding a hundred times than stumble through a hundred awkward attempts at “unique.” I’ve worked in the wedding industry for years and rarely ever seen anything that was both unique and fun. The ones that try…

Does lack of a conviction mean he didn’t do it? I thought we were supposed to believe the victims.

So you see now how claiming to have said a joke when what you said in no way resembles a joke can be off-putting. Glad we cleared that up.

People aren’t looking for a saint, they’re looking for people who haven’t been accused of sexual assault. That bar isn’t terribly high.
