Are we unusually grumpy today? Did your "engineer" boyfriend not give you a ride on his train at the amusement park today?


funny response Laughing

Ok and to answer BC...give it up BC...the Iraq issue...I bet you find Rosie to be an attractive woman too. I don't hate muslims and my post that you are referring to was meant to be sarcastic. But I do hate muslim extremists who want to kill those of us who do not agree with them.

Pretty much. Then a "good" christian would probably want to stone them. Very tolerant group, those christians.

Same is true for Russia. Did you see how the fags were punched in the face during the parade? Oh, yeah! That's the russian orthodox spirit!! That's not the UK or Canada to you, fags. Russians still have decency and love their God.


I saw it on TV this morning. What got me was the Russian Police also got in on the punching as well. Here in the USA the police would have been suspended from their duties.

Now crabman, they don't stone people anymore. Don't you know that. Name one christian group that does that. I couldn't careless, but just name one.

Jo jo the police is just as much orthodox as those who punched those droopy mustache heads. So everything is cool.

I said it a long time ago let me repeat it again. My worlds are like gold or ruby so they are always a honey for your soul. So listen:

If the gay would stay in their closets and commit their butt poking deads in there - no one would chastise them. But they want privileges . Well, these are the privileges they deserve in the orthodox Russia. No one to blame. This is not a pussy Canada to you.

Hey Vitals, I would love for the gays to keep it in the closet. No privileges. I am not for it. Keep it underwraps because it is wrong. It is not suppose to be Man and Man or Woman to Woman, (even though you men love to to see two women together), but it is suppose to be Man and Woman.

When someone like Vitaly says this crap, I can understand. The men is not very bright and does not have much respect for human rights. But I cannot comprehend why is it that so many people in the US South are so damn backward-minded. I think people in New York shared the same view about 50-60 years ago. I guess Kentucky has a long way to go. All this religious nonsense about what is right and what is wrong. First of all, who are you to say to some people what is right and what is wrong? For some people, eating hamburgers is wrong while some other people love it. Some choose to drink in a bvar every day and get drunk, others (like me) feel that glass of red wine with dinner is more than enough. The whole point of living in a free country should be for people to live anyway they like. I don't have any gay friends. But I saw some gay men who were in a serious and committed relationship for dozens of years. They love each other and they have feelings for one another. It's not their free choise to love other men. It's what they feel. So who cares?

Vitaly cannot comprehend that the reason why they demonstrate for their rights is because of him and people like him. And because they don't have too many rights and cannot just be who they are without someone screaming that "it's wrong", "it's bad", "it's sinful", etc.

Only in American can the president that was drinking hard until he was 40, C-student throughout his college years who sent thousands of Americans to death in Iraq be on a higher moral ground because he feels that "Marriage is for men and women"... Talking about priorities.

I guess that is why they are beating the crap out of gays in Russia because they think like backward southerners from America. It doesn't have anything to do with rights. I guess butt ****$^(%### is okay with you. This one is hard to grasp as freedom Spicey. It is preference. If I go in a resteraunt and get a coke instead of a pepsi, I am not going out on the street and make a big scene and tell everybody and demand people to support me because I love coke. If I prefer bondage and like being tied up during sex then I don't think people would appreciate me yelling it out in the street and want bondage rights. It is in moral and don't throw religious stuff on me. I am not religious.

The point is that if YOU want to YOU can. While people may think you are a bit odd it is doubtful that anyone would beat you because of your slightly different behaviour.

Why then should people be persecuted, discriminated against and denied basic human rights because they share their bed with someone of the same sex and same persuasion?

Your take on morals belongs to a bygone era when bigotry in all guises was acceptable, It is not anymore.

It would be surprising to see the results on how many people actually accept this behaviour. I would bet the percentage rate is very low.

jo jo - I accept any behavior that does not affect me. Let people do whatever they want. They yell on the streets because they want to have respect and the same rights as heterosexual couples, and more power to them. Unlike bondage, they really have no choice. They have feelings for people of the same sex - it's inborn.

Any behavior? Does this mean you think and live with two iron walls on both sides of you. Don't get involved because it doesn't concern you.

jo jo - any behavior that reasonable people desier because of their differences. There are many gay people living in New York. Most are quite successful in what they do. I don't see any problem with them living the way they prefer and desire.

You don't have to explain it to me, I just find it offensive and this is a free country so I can see we will be bombarded with gay activist from now to eternity. Where is my right to be against it? I have to take all the shoveling down my throat and accept it. Not in my lifetime.

I perfectly understand that you may find the gay rallies offensive - that's OK. You're entitled to your opinion. But you said that being gay was wrong - that is a judjement call that in my opinion is influenced by the loonie state that you were brought in. Who are you to say what's right and what's wrong?
