Back in my day, we used to have fistfights outside of bars all the time without calling them beatings. I don't see why that changes when race and sexual orientation gets involved. I think this is just the media being overly sensitive.

Except it's a pretty lame and repetitive comment. Maybe if Fris came up with something original, it might elicit a chuckle. I don't see why this thread should be fun. We're debating a serious topic here and your side supports discriminating against heterosexuals.

Apparently back in the day people would just beat each other up without any reasons like chimpanzees.

Maybe you should actually make an argument instead of making "funny" or "humorous" comments that really don't pertain to the thread at all.

Because you're intolerant of intolerant people? Even my elementary school kid brain figured that one out.

Thinking that just because I don't care about opinions that are going to change back and forth no matter what I do I must think that people who oppose gay rights are subhuman and should be killed? That's a huge, ridiculous leap.

Seriously, though, getting back on topic. Nobody has addressed my point about the benefits of gay bars keeping straight people separate from gays.

Find me a place where gays can mingle besides gay bars without being beaten up or get looked down upon.

Why would you call me a chimpanzee? I thought forty years after MLK, America had been past this nonsense.

I fought plenty of people back in my time, black, white, hispanic, gay, straight, Republican, or Democrat. I once fought a homosexual outside of a gay bar. We both got thrown out for causing trouble. Of course, I beat the shit out of him with the fists God gave me, but we both got up, shook hands, and parted ways. I don't see why that's not possible today. You get angry and drunk. Fights happen. I know the good Lord doesn't approve of violence, but I'm sure He'll forgive me.

I merely translated it so people not as smart as yourself could understand.

Why you want intolerant people to be killed, I don't know, but I would suggest seeking help about it.
