I have gone back and read the exchange in question. The anti-gay polemic spouted off by WAD was odious, vile and reprehensible. If the target of his vitriol had been ANY other group (visible minorities, the disabled, mentally challenged, etc.) he likely would have had his account suspended. Instead, he posts his vile rant on another thread, gets justiably called out on it by FD, starts a suck-ball, whiner thread about how he is going leave the board in a tearful snit, and this action, by some inexplicable karmic joke, earns him SUPPORT and f**cking cyber-hugs? WTF???? Not only was Funky Dereks response 100% justified, it was stunningly reserved given the degree of intolerance, hate and utter disrespect that this half-wit showed towards gays in general, not to mention the various gay posters within our midst.
For the sake of perspective, here are some relevant snippets of WAD's diatribe:
"you know I really like to read posts on different topics without the underlying tone of these posts being from a "gay"perspective."
Whoopee dee-doo. Is your "hetero" perspective more germane or relevant or "appropriate"?
" Advertising your sexual inclinations on a primarily Jehovahs Witness discussion forum to me is tasteless and I don't give a shit if it's popular to condascend,fluff up, or pander to the whims of some people thru commenting on how terrible it is to bash verbally "gays".
What the hell does that mean? A "primarily jehovahs witness discussion forum?" This is a FREE discussion board primarily made up of EX-JWs who come here attempting to escape the mental slavery imposed by the WTS. One can use any perspective one chooses to. There are many gay posters on this board and their perspective is no less deserving of respect than ANYONE elses.
"If I had a bent for hiding cherbals in my butt and came on here seeking support from all because some dick abused me ,would you all rush to me with sympathetic messages to the same degree I wonder .What if I complained that I was born this way with "cherbal in my butt" fetish ,supposedly caused by my dna and too many fluffy teddies in my crib ,would I get the same response from all here?"
Yes WAD, all gay people just love hiding "cherbals" up their butts. Is that what you meant you ignorant trogladite? This statement is a telling demonstration of your highly limited cognitive abilities and is to utterly idiotic I can barely find words to respond with.
"Or am I being labelled now as a poofter basher myself now, well no I should,nt be but that just depends on whether you all consider yourselves as sheep in white and I'm black. That's why I'm saying this coz to follow the popular flow of thinking is weakness as I see it and to pander to someones homosexuallity is just that."
Ah yes, of course, the old "poofter" label comes out. I wonder, would you feel so free to use equally offensive terms to describe blacks, jews, disabled? I wonder, who is asking you to "pander to someones homosexuality"? I dont see any evidence of that. If you dont like reading about homosexuality, DONT READ ABOUT IT. Following the "popular flow of thinking" is weakness? Well I guess the alternative mode of thinking leads to the "Cherbal up the butt" school of logic, based upon your example.
"They are not victims but select it by intelligent choice and painting them as a minority is not true is it? So why the great displays of sympathy coz he's "gay"....he or she is human and should be EQUALLY treated as a person not a poor victim."
> Ironically, the great displays of sympathy towards YOU on this thread are apparently because you are a homophobic, small minded bigot who had the political savvy to start a whiny, snivelling thread whilst threatening to leave the board due to a temper tantrum. Others are free to tolerate hate-speech and beg you to remain here. I'm not one of them.
" If someone treats a crippled person badly does'nt that just make it a bad event from that other person ,and I would imagine that the crippled person would not want gushings of "oh you poor person " for we see you are a cripple. Some people stand out in this world by CHOICE and others suffer bigotry for being born disabled - now is anyone going now to say coz a "gay" says he's born that way he's a cripple, he could'nt help it?"
>Just more of your stupid bigotry shining through like a polished turd. Ah yes, homosexuality is comparable to a physical handicap? Where is the logical link here? What does being "crippled" (to use your terminology for a handicapped person) have to do with sexual orientation?
Whatever the case, your words, quoted verbatim above, speak for themselves. Hasta la vista and please stay out of your local pet-shops, you seem to have a disturbing fascination with small, furry mammals...
