| 33. "attacks on gay people"? |
|
show me one comment I've made that any rational person would reasonably call an "attack" and I'll eat a bug.
When I suggest that certain comments might be over the top, premature, without factual basis, or just too angry to be productive, said comments are called "an attack on gay people".
FYI, you don't speak for the community, you only speak for yardwork.

| -So, do DUers still think that the Lincoln Memorial event was a last minute job? |
