Thread Name: BS: Californians Oppose 'Prop 8' Gay Marriage Ban
Subject: RE: BS: Californians Oppose 'Prop 8' Gay Marriage Ban
I am simply intolerant of people launching personal attacks on other people on these political threads, specially if they make personal attacks that use words such as "bigot" or "anti-semite" or "nigger" or "faggot" or "asshole", etc.... What's so hard to understand about that? You've done it to Akenaton and he's done it to you. Other people here have done it to Akenation and GfS and they have retaliated in similar fashion, and around and around it goes forever and ever, and people get more and more short-tempered and het up over it, and their rhetoric gets nastier and more accusatory. I encourage all of you not to launch personal attacks over your political differences...but just discuss the issues calmly and give your reasons for having the opinions you do on those issues.

To put it briefly, just stop trying so hard to prove that the other guy is a "bad" person...or that his opinion is "evil".

Now, tell me. How much time do you really wish me to spend daily on this thread? How many more of my statements will you conveniently misinterpret in some way in order to have something to fight with me about? How many more frenzied and intemperate questions will you ask me that are not founded in anything I really thought in the first place? And when will the Fat Lady sing? Soon, I hope... ;-) It's only curiosity as to what happens next that brings me back...a form of common mental addiction that we all fall prey to...plus I find it amusing at times. It's fun. I know perfecly well that I'll never reach any peaceful or reasonable resolution with you guys...so what do I come here for? Laughs, I guess.

Oh...thaks for reaching 1900 posts. I am now the proud owner of one of these:

Oh boy!
