The sum of us: Rugby league hero Steve Mortimer proud of his son's gay union

[highlandeagle]

You appear to have clear prejudgements about homosexuals highlandeagle. This shouts loudly in your postings and in your ratings of other postings. Yours would be a traditional view. That is a view I am seeking to disrupt and challenge.

It is no surprise you will perceive I am being intolerant of your views when I disagree - very strongly - with them. And you apparently equate intolerance - or even strong challenge - of views with intolerance of the people holding those views.

No not at all.Each to their own. It's about respecting other peoples viewpoint even if it differs from your own. without being lectured to how to think from your high horse.

This is becoming quite a productive exercise in outing the homophobes. Put a little bait out there - and they bite in droves.

Outing a case of homophobiaphobia as well.

If delivery is your sole problem, highlandeagle then are you missing the forest for the trees?

How does a little disruption here - in debate - and it is all tiny, pretty much anonymous and voluntary - compare in your mind to the impacts on gay and lesbian people - which is so severe that not one male NRL - or AFL - or top level cricket player (to my knowledge) is willing to come out for fear of vilification?

Where do you stand on the substance of this issue, rather than the form?

Conceited dick!

Conceited dick!

Keep showing your class Wombat Legacy. Keep dumbing down the debate to your preferred level.

It's not like these are real people suiciding or anything.

 

[bones]

Stop twisting things to suit your own agenda. Are you gay bones? Or do you just wish you were

Your interest is flattering mate, but I'm not interested. Sorry.

Your lecture from your high horse is noted.
Your failure to respect my viewpoint because it differs from yours is noted.
Your lecturing me on how I should think is noted.

Anything else highland?

 

[lsz]

So we need to be tolerant of the intolerant?

 

[Rex]

Troll now,,,,lol

Are you on the turps again Womby?

 

[Garts]

At the end of the day people should be able to have their opinions. It is their right. No matter how farked up and redneck and backward they are.

 

[Rex]

You've got a gift Garts. Almost wet my pants with that one.

Wait ... gotta go.

 

[Rex]

Back again. That's a great way to close off for me thanks Garts.

Off for a couple of days so you've got free rein to post any abuse if you wish, unrestrained and uninhibited Womby & co. Enjoy!

Well ****ing sure !!

+ You don't like gays, your a homophobe

+ You don't accept other races, your a racist.

+ You feel one sex is better than the other your sexist.

+ You can't comment on someone's religion, or your a bigot.

+ Call someone fat.or skinny, your a bully.

But its open season on us vertically challenged folk ain't it !! Anyone ever thought of us down here? @Blue pill says I have short man syndrome. A bloke at work sent an email around telling everyone today it's "the horny gnomes birthday on Monday". I slow dance with my wife, and I have to eyeball her boobs. My friends want to borrow my tiny hands, because it makes their penises look bigger like an optical illusion in a sideview mirror (things appear larger than they really are).

Us hobbits have feelings too you know !! Hairy feet, round bellies, but feelings damn it !!

Rightio, trolls for you ALL....post haste !!

And most would know this satirical song about discrimination that is in a similar spirit to Ryan's post.

Some posters here doth protest too much, methinks.

Was thinking the same reading through this reading thinking there's some serious closet cases hiding behind their anti gay rhetoric.

Has anyone here managed to come up with a actual practical reason why two people of the same sex can't get married yet ?? ..........

Because it's illegal
