Arguing that it can happen to anyone means you dont grasp the fact that discrimination laws protect all. I understand that you believe white people are discriminated against, but if any of the above situations happened, they would win in court.

Exhibit A as to why you are a homophobe and cannot lay claim to the argument that "people like me stand up for equality." You don't, so stop lying. And this is just one strain of intolerant, bigoted behavior on the conservative side.

LMAO....if the Republican Party treated people equally, it'd be attracting more non white voters.

Sorry, but it's the party of pyssed off white males. That's a crowd that I have no time for.

Lol...so you're mad because you wanna freely hate all minorities without criticism...which in your mind is OK because of course you'll choose a tiny few to actually like and respect.

That's why I always say, let a conservative talk long enough...

Southern whites left the Democrats solely because of race. They thought the party was too welcoming to blacks. Couldn't have that.

So they chose Nixon...who blew his dog whistles all over the place.

And i judge the Republican Party by that fact until this day and forever.

CRA wouldn't have been necessary had white folks done the right thing.

I never said Republicans defended gay marriage. You said civil rights, housing discrimination and economic discrimination, which Republicans have supported.

If that's the case then you have less reason to force someone to rent to another person.

Your nonsense homophobe label is meaningless, just like all the labels liberals resort to. I don't fear gays let alone have an irrational fear of them. I just don't think a gay couple is the same thing as a traditional marriage.

If they do not support them for all individuals, then they do not support them period. By your logic a Republican could say " I support Civil rights, Housing, and economic opportunity of only white people" and it would fulfill the objectives of your argument.

that would be true if you pretended racist and homophobes dont exist.

Replace it with whatever other label you want that says "I stereotype gays on their orientation and don't want them to have certain basic equal rights," because that's what you stand for. So just have the balls to own up to it and stop this game of "my party is the party of equality for everyone." It's like wacky opposite day with you guys. What you express is really just the same continuation of the same mentality as the historic racist opposition of civil rights. And now tell me with a straight face that it was people like you who fought for minority civil rights... lol

All right, this just devolving into another deal where liberals say whites and conservatives are all racist and are to blame for everything. That's racist Democrats for you.

Whites AND conservatives? No...not quite.

Remove the "and" however, and it's not all that far off the mark. Just read the threads here on CD. Hell, read your own posts in fact.

This evolved into the demonstration of conservatives for exactly what they always have been and always will be: people intolerant of minorities and fundamentally prone to their subjugation. It was blacks before, now it's gays, also coming up all Muslims...
