I knew things weren't great at DU for GLBT people.

[mondo joe]

But I didn't know it was now acceptable to point blank say you don't approve of gay people.

On edit: The asshole was tombstoned. Thanks mods!!!

1. Yeah, at least most of the homophobes here try to mask their bigotry

with rationalization.

[DS1]

2. on slot

:rofl:

6. We have a new Freeperism!

:spray:

10. Why does it seem like they can never spell?

[Jamastiene]

19. Because they never can!

Aren't they horrible? :rofl:

4. Poor Example, Sir: That Account Has Been Closed....

"Kill one, warn one hundred."

[mondo joe]

9. I gratefully and humbly acknowledge my error.

:thumbsup:

[The Magistrate]

14. No Problem, Sir

I can only repeat that alerts on things like that work better for everyone than posts in reply calling others bigots and what-not. We cannot act against things we never see ourselves.

[Dennis Donovan]

11. Kil one, warn one hundred... only if he was the biggest one...

...and, hooboy, he WAS a big one...:thumbsdown:

[mondo joe]

13. But y'know, there are some major ones out there who are never touched. NT

[Dennis Donovan]

16. If they're in favor of bigotry, they'll be outed soon enough...

25. Oh yeah, they're a serious problem here.

Toads are like athlete's foot. They come around once in a while, they're never pleasant when they show up, and you can never seem to get rid of them permanently.

Also, I was in the nation's capitol recently and had a flat tire. Lesson learned: Make sure, while you're in *DC*, you have a tire repair *Kit* with you.

21. I dunno. The servings of ham and rice we have received today

have been warmed over and decidedly bland.

[Dennis Donovan]

23. I was in the supermarket, and a Sample Girl offered me ignorance on a Ritz Cracker...

:D

[Marrah_G]

24. It's been insane Sir

My head is spinning. I'm gonna stay here and behave though, promise.

[The Magistrate]

26. It is a Night To Stay Indoors, Ma'am, Certainly

Best wishes of the Season to you and yours!

[Marrah_G]

27. And to you and yours Sir

May you have a wonderful Holiday/Solstice Season!

[JuniperLea]

5. There will always be people like that...

We can't be the thought police. They are misguided, and sometimes I think they are in denial about their own sexuality. I think it's better to take the high road and hope they mean it when they say they support you.

It sucks, I know, but there's nothing you or anyone can do. Like I said, we can't be the thought police. We better hope to Goddess there are NEVER any thought police.

:hug:

[The Magistrate]

12. Well, Ma'am, This Is Pretty Close....

7. Good damn grief!

How much more of this nastiness are we going to have to endure? Seriously.

I alerted on that post. Maybe something will be done, but I'm not too hopeful.

:wow:


ETA: I stand corrected, based on The Magistrate's post upthread. Thank you!

[Politicub]

8. Are there any moderators these days?

Seriously.

:shrug:

15. I figured that asshole was a Freeper the other day when he was union bashing

Labor unions, that is. Not same sex unions (that time)
