I think you'd be wise to consider that Savage's tirade may have the opposite effect. I seriously feel myself giving less a damn about "bullying".

I never said it was, I asked you if it was.I think it's all BS myself, it's just another way to wuss kids down. But the point is that this clown thinks calling names is Bullying and yet he did it which makes him a Hypocrite and that's the whole point of this thread.

This savage clown also said he "wished all reps. were fn dead" .. anyone defending this clown should really pull their head out of their ass where nothing belongs and tell savage you dont need a book to tell you that.

I can't stand his self-righteous pontification nor his boorish, vile behavior.

He's certainly not the kind of spokesman you'd want for......anything.

It's what they DO.

They didn't knowingly attend a conference expecting to be railed against for their faith and called names...unless you can provide some evidence that was in the itinerary.

Amazing just what the Left will excuse and condone.....as long as the ones being attacked are on the other side of the aisle.
Oh quit being a drama queen.

He did not rag on their faith, he ragged on the hypocrisy in Christianity. There happens to be a huge difference between those statements. Capiche?

The conference was called Journalism On The Edge, not Journalism That We Hope Won't Upset You.

Fair enough. But I think he had a good point this time, and anyone who hasn't been following his behavior all along might still hear the truth in it.

REALITY CHECK: Not ALL Gays have gone through the type of bullying Savage did. And there is NOTHING to indicate the Christian kids in the audience ever did any bullying to Savage or any other gay person. They don't need to pay any "price."

If this man isn't publicly apologized for by no one less than the POTUS, who has supported him, and disassociated from the Anti-Bullying Campaign, then this whole thing needs to be scratched for it will have been revealed for what it is - A Bully Pulpit/Christian Silencing Political Maneuver that reeks of Religious Discrimination & Harassment. These tactics will not be tolerated. No child deserves this treatment.
