So, what's the longest thread on the forums? Only a few hundred pages, right?

I believe in us, guys. I believe in the power we, as a forum, have: the power to make this thread legendary.

There's one 645-page thread in someone's journal that got locked because it was slowing the servers down.

if your interpretation of the Courts position of marriage as a "fundamental right" was correct, anti-polygamy laws would violate the constitution. But that's not the case, is it?

Maybe. We'll know when someone sues on those grounds and someone defends why it's in the state's interest to deny those people their rights. The SCotUS declined to hear such a case back in 2007 (which was just as well for advocates since parts of the case were pretty weak) but maybe it'll come up some day. The court has decided that the right to marry should not be denied to people without compelling reason, i.e. a real harm to society. So it is definitely legal (and even constitutional then under judicial review) to deny someone their right, you just need to have a good reason for doing so. Again, the question is one for the government (or advocate party in this case) to defend what the real harm is in allowing homosexual marriage and how that harm is great enough to justify denying them their right to marry.

This is only about the one billionth time you've had this explained to you so I'm done with this. If you're this incapable of understanding a simple concept, I doubt another billion times will help. I'll catch ya next thread when I'm feeling feistier.

Yeah, that must be it.

I should be appreciative that you're not weird about it (or so you claim, I suppose), but then I actually read what you wrote.

"if I'm around them for some reason" - honestly! As though you make it a point to avoid "them" but if "they" happen to show up, well, at least God gave you the utmost grace and kindness to treat "them" better than thy peers.

I put that there purposely to be interpreted as such to be honest. I'm not going to lie. I'm an over all loner and I don't like hanging around people. Most of my friends are females. Most of the guys that I know, drink for fun. I hate being around drunk guys because they act stupid. I also don't like hanging around feminine guys, straight or not. The less feminine you act, the more I can push the thought that you're a homosexual away. In any case, it isn't me focusing on them, because I don't like being people in general.

You are right and I'm wrong. Violence is indeed a reaction to fear. I was thinking more along the lines of the reaction where people scream and hide. In any case, I seriously doubt that any noticeable percentage of those cases are from fear, especially when you seek them out. It may have started out in fear, but it most definitely brewed into hatred, prejudice and ignorance.


Yup, that's why it's called a fight or flight response. I'm more of a flighter, myself.

You're an idiot even for a troll. There are many things that I'm disgusted by that I'm not afraid of. I think someone getting their butt-licked or vice-versa is pretty disgusting. I don't care what sex combination it is. That doesn't mean I'm afraid of butt-lickers. That's stupid. That doesn't make me a butt-lickaphobe. That doesn't mean I don't want butt lickers to get married.


Okay, what do you feel when you think about butt-licking? Other than hunger, of course.

You feel fear, obviously. You're afraid of eating **** or something, fine. Personally, I ate some *** yesterday, and it was great. My wife reads this board, but she won't open this thread at this point, so I'm safe sharing that as long as you guys don't rat me out and tell her I told you guys. Okay? So don't.

Anyway, Alma, you are so stunted in your ability to empathize with others or even understand others that I honestly believe you're autistic. I usually don't lower myself to talk to jigs, and especially not retarded ones, so good day.


Also, I don't want to hear it from him because I won't read the ten paragraphs he craps out, but what is gbaji's point with the "state objective" thing? Does he think we need to define the "state objective" for marriage? Because I'm pretty sure that through the power of reading I have discerned that the people looking to make laws restricting gay rights have to show the "state's objective" for doing so. Seems just obvious to me.

Yeah, you got it in one. The ruling for the case in question stated that the state had to show a legitimate objective for any racial classification. I think everyone agrees that the state can deny people rights, but it needs a really good reason for doing so. Gbaji found a phrase he thought was a big zinger so he's ignoring the context and demanding that we all think it means that the state needs a single objective for being involved in marriage. Of course, the paragraph (in fact, the whole document) doesn't back this up but any port in a storm.

I think I can pretty safely say I am a butt-licker-o-phobe. I have an (ir?)rational fear of eating poo.

I came across this article yesterday. It berates Obama for his stance, or non-stance on SSM. The article attempts to compare Woodrow Wilsons opinion on Women's right to vote with Obama's opinion on SSM. The common link created is they both brush it off as a localized, non-national and ultimately non-constitutional issue.

It goes on though, with a timeline of Obama's statements on concerning SSM over the last 14 years. It was sort of interesting.

The etymology of the word homophobe doesn't rest in my hands, so who gives a **** what my definition of the word is.

What? Are you serious? You're wanting to lift the ban on SSM and you don't want to hear anything about rights, fairness or equality? Seriously? You are obviously blinded by emotion and that type of reasoning will never allow you conquer anything.

This is a 'free' country. Our ability to do as we choose is limited by the government for the good of all. Why should two people of the same sex not be allowed to marry under the same legal definition as two people of the opposite sex?

Please answer the question by page 50.
