No, just a typical night on the C-D forum. As light is to moths, so is this forum to angry, bitter, self-loathing middle-aged white dudes who think minorities are constantly coming for their stuff.

This. ^^^

I had taken a bit of a break from P&OC for a few days, kind of a "cleansing," and it's weird how quickly one forgets the insanity, bigotry, hatred, and ignorance that takes place here on a daily basis.

Geez.........

I thought gay dudes (and lesbians) had high incomes. At least those lesbians, one punked me out of a business deal last week (my niece has 2 moms :-)

Yes, the data I saw would indicate that, which makes the bumbling post that initiated thread rather humorous in its premise.

BTW, using the logic of these people, it would appear that gays work harder than heterosexuals. Yes, it gets even more amusing as we go along.

Civil partnerships amendment 'could wreck' gay marriage Bill and cost taxpayer ...

The Independent - ‎1 hour ago‎

Moves to legalise gay marriage cleared a crucial parliamentary hurdle as it emerged that civil partnerships could be abolished as the price for getting David Cameron's plans on to the statute book.
That linked article makes no reference to anything having to do with the thread title. Anyway, as a 'straight taxpayer' I have no problem with our government providing gay people the same benefits that I receive (currently, potentially, married, or single).
