Are You Less Likely To Be Forum Friends With Or Give Reputation Points To A Gay Poster?

I understand; I however am willing to meet people halfway...even if it means me extending the olive branch first.

HOWEVER...I am NO appeaser nor apologist; I'm just grown up enough to know that to earn respect; one must be willing to also give respect.

You do kinda have an "attitude".(sometimes)...( ME..... Squinches as he rips me apart in his next post)

Can't we all just try and get along...for crying out loud if gay people cannot reach common ground amongst ourselves; than how can we ever form a united political front and include enough allies for a majority vote to get the same laws passed that you and I deem important? .

I think taking a few minutes to think would help eliminate many of the rather stupid and pointless things everyone says from time to time (including me!). Of course, some folks don't think they need to think about what they are saying because they honestly either don't know or don't care that what they are saying is offensive to anyone.

I totally agree...check out the airheaded comments and warped sense of reality in the Walmart/Haiti thread...some posters simply are MEAN-spirited and argue for the sake of "blowing their own horn"....PITTS..
