I don't think that justification works because he invoked the death penalty. From my understanding, if this were right and he was wildly mis-qouted or misunderstood, then the punishment discussed would be a canning at most, not the death penalty (on a national level, I know some local governments have tried to…

I believe you are right and think she explicitly said so herself, something along the lines of: it is not immoral to take back what was taken from you, or something other.

You can see my reply to Kirel and to the other comment the OP made. My reason for thinking they are acting entirely homphobic has nothing to do with whether or not they give money to any particular issue. Also, I'm not sure how exactly what the OP had to say was at all relevant to the article being discussed. When I…

You must have missed everything I said and why. I never said that not

But I just got a seemingly innocent question from someone with the screenname "rapistdouche." Should I not respond?

I'm sorry, I can not deal with this reality right now. Therefore, I shall modify your comment as follows:

I would argue they are already shut down to any conversation and do not buy into the notion that sparing the feelings of people who are acting bigoted should be the default position for everyone. And it is not falsely accusing if I actually believe it. Portraying all, or most, LGB people as upper-class and otherwise…

I am so sorry that gay people do not take the time to educate straight people in our clubs. Its not like we have centers dedicated to solely that thing and that people who show up looking to treat us like accessories probably aren't that interested in learning anyway. At the next meeting, I'll be sure to remind…

Because lesbian and bi women are never single mothers, broke, etc. There are problems with fundraising, and I am terrible at it because I do hate asking people for money. But your rant is nothing but an excuse for your homophobia (and yes, imo, ignoring the presence of LGBTQ people in a variety of causes and issues,…

I say this as a black person: Some people need to lighten up. I mean yes, if you wear blackface, or don costumes based on racist stereotypes, and throw racist stereotyped themed parties, some people of color are going to say what you are doing is racist. But instead of getting all upset about it, why not just lighten…

Instead of expecting some of us to lighten up in response to actions we see as racist, why not white people who don blackface lighten up to accusations that their actions are racist?

I thought of Katniss and her dad's side of the family being descendant from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Melungeon. I think it fits geographically and makes the default white assumption less excusable.

If it is the first meeting, I think it is meant to be pervy, especially with the whole "hey, want some sugar" and "I trade in secrets" thing. Maybe its me, but I am not sure there are a whole lot of ways to ask a stranger, while whispering, if they want some sugar that is not pervy.

I am against the state using the death penalty but any response on the part of a person to such a statement should be treated as a response to an assault, especially when the statement itself is a means of threatening women by not-so-subtley reminding anyone deemed a woman to stay inline. Of course state execution or…

Internets please forgive me for this, but:

There are not enough kudos for this.

Also, some asexuals do engage in sex sometimes, and some people who identify as asexual have very low sexual desires. So asexual does not necessarily mean they do not have sex or want to have sex. And I do not think anyone needs to disclose their sexual desires or practices until the possibility of sex comes up in the…

Awwww, those were pretty good. You just need to chang in there.
