If Donnie McClurkin became the victim of racially motivated police misconduct tomorrow...

[CTLawGuy]

how would you react to that, knowing his bigotry towards homosexuals?

1. This is an interesting question

because we normally see bigotry one-dimensionally: racial, gender, sexual orientation. Rarely do we consider different forms of bigotry together.

2. I think a lot of people are lying to themselves when they vote for this

I've seen how DU reacts when something like that happens, and it's not as pretty as the poll suggests

3. Uh. If McClurkin were harmed by police that would be horrible. What a hateful post.

So it sounds like your saying LGBT people (who you are assuming are white) would "go all racist" because Donny's a self-hating queer. That's fucking sick and wrong on so many levels.

I believe in the civil rights of everyone even brainwashed idiots.

My problem is with BARACK OBAMA using the self-hate of a sick, brainwashed gay man for his own political gain. It's not really with Donny McClurkin.

5. Be honest

You know that LGBTs are all "hermetically sealed" from the faith community, and a bunch of racists too. Not to mention we're incapable of attending to any concerns but our own. :sarcasm:

4. Who's to say that a racist cop wouldn't be homophobic as well?

Just thought I'd throw another wrinkle into this ridiculous cycle of threads.
