And that would matter if it was even remotely connected to the point I was making.




Your point is null and void since - as I've pointed out - Christians would not have done this. They would have insisted it was their right to display or not display whatever God tells them to display or not display on their cabs and continued to drive to the airport - and when some guy carrying a gun made them stop - they would have whined straight to FOX News.


I mean frick - are you the only who is allowed to conjure hypothetical and speak of it as fact - or am I allowed to as well?


Or are the facts relevant at all?

It's irrelevant. The initial act of objection would have been sufficient to draw the ire of the media and it would all over the news. Nothing done after the fact would compare to the initial outrage.

Look, you wont find me supporting Christianity on a regular basis but we both know Islam is treated differently from every other ideology. Anyone else would have been a bigot just for objecting n the first place.

The facts remain that leftists of your ilk wont give a shite about this type of anti-gay action because the perpetrators arent of a particular group you despise...ie white, conservative, christian etc.

Just look at your reaction in this thread proof of that fact. You reserve your bile for the evil posters of this information rather than the anti-gay bigotry in the OP

Not that this is anything new for progressives who claim to be for liberty for the oppressed, justice for the exploited, a voice for the poor unwashed and disenfranchised as if you are somehow much more caring and morally pure than the rest of society. In truth, you only use these lofty ideals as a means to punish your political enemies. Far from being so altruistic, you are no better than evil men you pretend to abhor.

My first brush with this reality was during the Clinton presidency when the NOW gang suddenly became mute while the "bimbo patrol" was used to silence and intimidate the hordes of "trailer trash" accusing our first black president. Feminist didnt care...not because of the accusations but because of who was being accused.

Whatever moral high ground the left had was lost a long time ago and it's only gotten more comical since.

I've often wondered why liberals in this country often find themselves willful defenders of openly brutal and oppressive regimes whether it be communist dictatorships or radical middle-eastern religious sects...our history is replete with various examples of this phenomenon. The only thing that seems to remain constant is that these entities are violently anti-american. It seems that no matter how vile someone is, as long as they hate the "gleaming city on the hill" then that's reason enough.

Sounds an awful lot like you're calling out an entire group of people over a hypothetical reaction to a hypothetical situation, just a few posts after you attacked someone else for doing the same to you. That is the height of hypocrisy.

Actually, I'm giving you too much credit there. You are asserting that Christians "would have" insisted on driving the cabs without the offending ads. I'm going to take a wild guess and say there are at least one or two Christian cab drivers in Cleveland. Since they're not reacting in the manner you claim, your point is provably false.
