I sure as hell hope your remark is flip as well. Are you really comparing a college kid's comments about gays to the fricking holocaust? Blue's remarks and any conversation about those remarks is only deserving of flip remarks.

I wasn't comparing the comments made by a football player to the Holocaust. (Although, I would suggest that the road to the Holocaust was paved by plenty of similar sentiments and ignorance.)

I was saying that if even something as terrible as the Holocaust gets mocked (which happens unfortunately), then I should expect that some guy on here would mock my example of a gay man being dragged behind a pickup truck. A terrible thing. Made possible by an culture of ignorance and fear. And mocked here. By you.

Just saying I should have expected it.

Would heterosexual females feel "comfortable" if a straight dude was in the shower with them in the girls shower after a game...say Cecil Collins?(okay that is not fair) Lets say an average straight male. A male may not want to copulate with every female in the shower but you would have to agree that the vast majority of the females would feel uncomfortabl,as the dude cut glaces at their ladyparts.... Same with gays being in a shower with other straight dudes. Uncomfortableness would be the result.

I personally feel that gays have the right to pursue happiness like everyone else but not in the shower with other straight men. (kid in a candy shop) comon.

My joke was not based on your comment about a gay man being dragged behind a truck, but on your comment that no examples exist of gay men beating up straight men. You are correct, however, that I attempted to bring some levity into a serious conversation. It is often my way to try to lighten the mood, and if you or any others were offended by this, I do sincerely apologize. My comments were not intended to offend.
