I do not read about half of the threads on the soccer board because they are stupid and barely talk about soccer. I hate all the threads about racism, excessive debates on flopping, nationalism, etc. Stick to talking about soccer.

it was about soccer. i just corrected soembody and called DS the "janeane grafalo" (sp) of the soccer board

then he derps into the exact pattern of behavior a couple hours later, so i had to post it up

Yes he is so accepting that he believes they should be denied the same treatment under the law that he enjoys at a heterosexual


Actually, they have the same treatment. It's just that the laws in place aren't ones they are particularly interested in taking advantage of.

Last time I checked, straight guys weren't allowed to marry men either and gay guys were afforded the option to marry a woman if they so choose.

Thats a pretty important distinction to make when you toss around the word bigot. If a separate code was being applied to gays, then I would think anybody who supported that was a bigot. What actually exists is much more reasonable.

memes are the refuge of someone who feels a negative emotional reaction to a post but lacks the articulation to express that feeling. It is an emotional, illogical response.

His is a personal belief that seeks to have others not receive equal treatment under the law...

huh? no

both of the memes apply to the 2 principal arguments, but done in a succinct, funny, and referential way

That thread was about RVP trying to outdouche Piers Morgan. Not really relevant to soccer unless you mean another thread.

Read the OP and stopped.

Also, I dislike Dandy's threads/posts. Dude is horrible.

Then, he wouldn't be the first. It doesn't give the government the right to change how he feels. That is what Totalitarian dictators do.

all opinions/beliefs are discriminatory by their very nature


Isn't a pro-gay marriage opinion less discriminatory than and anti-gay marriage opinion?

Even if you were to argue that "beliefs" were being discriminated against, at this point, Peterson's belief in in the minority.

if we're going to boil this down to a binary argument, whichever side you pick is discriminatory towards the other side

that's the nature of choice. choice is a discriminatory behavior
