Reply #250: Do you even read what you post?

"Why are we suddenly talking about racial and other forms of discrimination as if only one type can exist" Read that carefully, for the full foolish effect. ". . .racial and other forms of discrimination as if only one type can exist" Apparently from your own words you believe that we're talking about more that one form of discrimination or persecution. So what's your beef again? Oh, yeah, I didn't mention religious discrimination or persecution right? But I did, if you go back and read my previous post I said: "You want to know what persecution is? It is when you get pulled over repeatedly by the police, walking or riding a bike, because you have long hair. It is getting the shit kicked out of you by the police, because you dared to exercise your constitutional right to peacefully protest. It is getting killed by somebody because of your religious persuation, or your race, or your sexuality. Get it, persecution is an action friend, sometimes it is an action combined with words. But it is never, ever words alone."

Notice, I mentioned getting killed because of your religious persuasion. So again, I ask, what is your beef? That I'm calling you out on your definition of persecution, that I find it foolish that you feel persecuted because somebody on DU is saying something mean about "all" Christians(and I'm still waiting for those examples I asked for)? Because I think that real world persecution is going on under the name and with the blessing of RW fundelmentalism? Or is it because I find this whole issue of this RW fundie getting up in arms over a little vandalism completely ridiculous, and am speaking out about it? What is it, that I try to be civil and polite and call you friend? Geez, you wouldn't get along very well in many cultures in this world, for there are a lot that use the pronoun of friend when speaking with complete strangers. It even goes on in this country. It is called being, well, friendly. Sorry if it creeps you out, but quite frankly that's your problem. I won't be calling you friend anymore in this thread, but hey, the memory is short, and I can't make any promises about future threads.

So once again, what's your beef?
