I guess I don't see people as bigots for disliking something.
I don't like a lot of things, but that doesn't make me a bigot. It's called a preference or opinion. If a guy doesn't want gays on his team, it means his preference is not to have gays on his team. Eventually, society straightens this shit out, but in the meantime people get their thong in a knot too severely about I think. People hate on religious people FAR MORE than gays, and aren't lambasted for it nearly as much. |

Now, if he had only said that he thought the idea of two dudes together was kinda gross, I wouldn't call that bigotry. That would be a preference, but saying that he wouldn't want them on the team at all is where he crosses the line. I wouldn't want to have sex with a 280 lb woman, but I wouldn't want someone fired from their job for being 280lbs or for having a 280lb wife. That's the difference between preference and bigotry. Learn it. Further, you can say that anybody's religion or politics or philosophy is dumb. But you if you go further and don't allow Catholics or Liberals into your place of business, you're a bigot. Plain and simple. |

And maybe muslims should quit blowing shit up and killing people in the name of Allah? Stereotypes exist for a reason. Quote:

I assume you meant ISN'T the same.... Well that's good news. Apparently now that the civil rights act has passed there are no more bigots. As soon as the law made them take down their 'no blacks allowed signs' they ceased being bigots. All those klan members like david duke espousing all that hate on antional tv, nope they arent bigots at all because after all they didnt have the legal power to actually keep blacks and whites from getting married. That was just their non bigoted preferences. Whew. Thanks for schooling me.

besides, that doesn't invalidate terrorists acts committed by Muslims, just like yelling allah akbar before going on a shooting rampage at Ft Hood doesn't constitute workplace violence. |
