Roman, just insert [black/Latino...et al] in there for "gay" and you're nothing better than a piece of s*** waste of a oxygen. The fact that you pick on gays for their sexual preference because they have anal sex? What about hetero couples that have anal sex? Is that "icky" to you too Roman? And the fact that gay couples can't have kids and that's why they shouldn't be together...what about sterile hetero couples?

I got home and nearly 5 pages were added.

I'd like to tell it like it is too. I'm just afraid that I can't get my head that far up my ass.

Never underestimate the power of ignorant people in large groups. And Windsock, millions agreed with Hitler and his Final Solution. That didn't make the murder of millions right.

People are not born gay. It is a conscience decision made usually by mature adults. I wont beat up and make fun of a retard. Why? Because the poor guy has no choice. He got screwed and I feel sorry for him. I will beat up and make fun of a gay person tho. Why? Because he decided to be gay.. Really, I'd like to see the scientific evidence proving that, Windsock.

Here Clu, why not spend your time here www.americannaziparty.com Seems like you're the only unstable one here, Clu. And MANY gays have joined the board? I guess I missed it when PRIDE made all their members become part of SoxTalk. Funny, I don't remember the mods bending anybody over so they could f*** them in the ass and give them AIDS...just asking that people had decency in their posts. But then, you'd be one to equate the two.

Yes, I concur that the vast majority of people do their best to combat the distinctions about race that are being made. A lot of what goes for political discourse in this country has been taken over by Chris "The Screamer" Matthews, Bill "Shut Up" O'Reilly, Sean Hannity, Michael Ledeen, Joe "Dead Intern" Scarborough, Michael "I Can't Always Get Things in Chronological Order but Still Have Good Info About Corporations that Do Something Wrong" Moore etc. leaving people like the Howard Zinns, the Noam Chomskys, etc. out of the political debate. The shows do not talk about the policy at hand but just icon, icon icon...And the amount of media research into stories in this country is just pitiful. [bBC journalist Greg Palast broke the story about the 57000+ voters removed in Florida's rolls in 2000; ABC shares stories and video with the BBC for free and Greg had the lists, had the documents from insiders in the Florida elections office, admissions from DBT Choicepoint, etc. yet ABC's only research was calling Jeb Bush and they dismissed the story when Bush said it wasn't true.] As for Bulworth, I thought it was both f***ing hysterical and really really powerful. It's basically about a Congressman [Warren Beatty] and he is depressed and suicidal because he has an ex-wife and he's a disillusioned Democrat. So he makes a deal with this insurance lobbyman for a $10 million life insurance policy that pays to his daughter. Then Bulworth puts a hit out on himself because he just wants to get his daughter the cash. But as he thinks about how he's gonna die, he just starts speaking his mind about politics in various forums on the eve of the Congressional primary. I highly suggest it.

I think the reason they rioted was that the cops got acquitted if I remember correctly. [been a long weekend of no sleep and van trips to & from Iowa ] 1549, I'd contend that there is not much institutionalized racism in the United States anymore like "Colored people only" water fountains etc. but there is still racist ideas that are still being preached. A few years ago at UIUC, the leader of the World Church of the Creator came here to speak [before getting thrown in jail for ordering a hit on a judge] When I was at home, a group came to a town near me [i think it was the American Nazi party but I'm not 100% sure] So there are still racist ideologies being spouted in this country. And even more recently there was at the College Republicans National Convention, some horrific garbage being sold there. Try these on for size: "No Muslims No Terrorism," "Bring back the blacklist," [featuring a picture of Spike Lee] "Mr. (?) and Mrs. (?) Rosie O'Donnell," [featuring a picture of Rosie O'Donnell and her partner] and just for good measure, "The Clinton Legacy," [featuring a picture of the burning World Trade Center]. Of course, a spokesperson for the College Republican National Committee denied all knowledge and pleaded ignorance (which wasn't much of a stretch): "We sold over 50 tables to vendors. We didn't monitor every single product of every single vendor." Really? Cool, then I'll go to the next convention and sell anti-Bush shirts. http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=stor...raising_pitches I know that convention doesn't indict ALL Republicans, but I find it sickening that they would sell the "No Muslims No Terrorism" shirts etc. Racism is still something that is alive and well and I think a lot of it has to do with the culture of fear that has been inculcated in us. By any chance, 1549, have you seen the movie Bulworth?

Rodney King was pulled over and being a hardass at the time. However, handcuffing him and beating the s*** out of him with a flashlight was uncalled for. In my social justice class, my junior year of high school, we actually got to read some of the police chatter from that night. There were squad cars all over the area that heard about it yelling "Beat the n*gger" etc. Yes, the case can be made that King is no saint and I concede that fact. However, he did not deserve the horrific treatment that he received at the hands of the LAPD. Now, how in the blue f*** did we get so off topic from the original stuff about intolerance of homosexuality?

Well Siegfried is like 64 and Roy is 59 I believe...retirement might have been a real possibility even if this accident didn't happen in a few years? /just a guess

Yeah, I can't believe that in a press conference Bush actually called the War on Terror a "Crusade" I was sitting there laughing saying "Ix-nay on the Usade-Cray!"

Windsock doesn't need facts. And Windsock, do you read before you respond? I think not. If you did, you'd see that CW didn't say anything until page 4.

Pot. Kettle. Black. Sounds like somebody's getting a little upset and uptight, eh Windsock?

Hey Windsock...if we wanna get into religion, then how about the fact that Jesus never said anything about it? Or if it was such a big sin then how come it didn't make the 10 Commandments? We think of bigamy as immoral now but that was fully allowed in the Bible. Take Jacob from Genesis. He had multiple wives. Most scholars see the Leviticus codes as laws that were time bound for a certain era. 1 Corinthians 6 and Romans 1 are now commonly interpreted as protests against the unnatural acts of HETEROSEXUALS acting as homosexuals. The Bible is at best, murky about inherent sexual identity. And hey Windsock, if you want to be a neo-literalist of the Bible then you must be against divorce [Mark 10:10-12] And Matthew 5:38-44 might cause a problem with you entering the military because it's the whole "love your enemies" idea. I'm just saying, if you want to be literalist about one aspect of the Bible, then let's go hog wild.

A lot of people in America tend to think that Israel is innocent. This is because the US media does not cover the fact that Israel is the #1 violator of UN laws. Nearly every time the UN goes to punish them, the United States uses its' veto vote to quash the punishment. The media doesn't cover the bulldozing of Palestinian homes or the wall that is going up. They don't cover Sharon's war crimes in Sabra and Shatila. Israel has done a lot of stuff wrong to the Palestinians. But that by no means justifies the intense violence on either side. You'd think they'd figure out that after the first few suicide bombings and retalitory missile attacks that it wasn't working. My friend Adam writes for our school newspaper and his article which will get published tomorrow [that's why it says Yom Kippur was yesterday] mirrors my sentiments on the entire situation almost exactly. Here it is: Day of Atonement Yom Kippur was observed yesterday; it is the holiest holiday in the Jewish calendar. All day, Jews across the world prayed for forgiveness. We asked God for forgiveness for sins we have committed against Him. However, God cannot forgive us for sins committed against others. In order to gain his neighbor’s forgiveness, a Jew must specifically ask for it. So, as a Jew, I think it’s time to ask forgiveness from the people whom we have collectively sinned against the worst: the Palestinians. Whatever bad blood they might have caused, we have to admit to our parts in this hostility. Our brothers in Israel have killed thousands of Palestinians, and displaced many more from their homes. We are building a wall to separate the Palestinians from us. The wall weaves in and out of their scant territories, isolating many Palestinian communities. When complete, the 20 foot tall monstrosity will make the Berlin Wall pale in comparison, yet we continue calling it a fence. Under the Nazis, we were cordoned off the same way, because we were seen as inhuman, a danger to better parts of society. Now, we are doing the same thing to Muslims who share our homeland in Israel. Many of us have blindly supported a President, either in Israel or the United States, who should be standing trial for war crimes instead of running a country. We have responded to violence with more violence, using our dominant arsenal to inflict even more injury than we receive. We have branded a whole people as terrorists because of what a few of them have done. For these sins against our Palestinian brothers, we must ask for, or even beg for their forgiveness. If we truly want atonement, there is no other way but to apologize. Think of their hardships. They needed a Gandhi, and all they got was an Arafat. I have to admit, I have no idea how Arafat can be so popular amongst Palestinians. How could someone suffering under oppression and poverty really trust a millionaire who pays people to blow themselves up? If modern Israel didn’t resemble apartheid South Africa quite so closely, maybe more young Muslims would tell Arafat, “You first.” Since both Israeli and Palestinian leadership has been unable to come up with a peaceful solution, I have taken the liberty of coming up with one myself. I am quite confidant that this plan will appease both sides and create and enduring peace. What we need is to convince the leadership from both sides to come to a meeting. We will send invitations to Arafat and the leaders of every militant organization. Sharon must be invited also, along with his most loyal lieutenants. I would suggest that they invite George W. Bush as a mediator. Inside the meeting, the Palestinian leadership would sit on one side of the table, and the Israelis on the other. We would close the doors on their meeting room, and Bush could start the discussion. My guess is that they will soon be arguing so loudly, that nobody will notice the wall going up in front of the door or the cement being poured on top of the meeting room. By the time everybody is ready to break for lunch, we will have already constructed our monument to intolerance, with Sharon and Arafat trapped inside. Maybe Jews and Muslims would get along if bitter leadership didn’t lead both sides in the direction of violence. It might be the wake up call both sides need. We will either learn to get along, or die trying. Adam Zmick is a junior in engineering. Please do not shoot him. Hate mail can be sent to [email protected]

Many of the verses in the Bible were translated through interpretation. Most Biblical scholars now believe that Sodom and Gamorrah were destroyed for gross inhospitality rather than their homosexuality. That's just one example. Most right wing Biblical fundamentalists say that the Bible endorses marriage = 1 man + 1 woman. However, throughout the Bible there was bigamy abound. There are plenty of right wing fundamentalist movements that are very intolerant of any other religion and even the violent militants of the Army of God and other people who murder abortion clinic doctors. So, I could blame all of Christianity for what one sect has perverted it into to suit their political agenda. But that is not right to do to the religion. Thusly, it is not right for people to judge all of Islam on the Wahabbi fundamentalist sect that a minority of Arabs ascribe to. And if we wanna get technical, Wahabbi is the sect of Islam that our ally Saudi Arabia uses to keep power. What about the "uncivilized Jesus loving freaks" like Pat Robertson who said: "It is interesting, that termites don't build things, and the great builders of our nation almost to a man have been Christians, because Christians have the desire to build something. He is motivated by love of man and God, so he builds. The people who have come into (our) institutions (today) are primarily termites. They are into destroying institutions that have been built by Christians, whether it is universities, governments, our own traditions, that we have.... The termites are in charge now, and that is not the way it ought to be, and the time has arrived for a godly fumigation."--Pat Robertson, New York Magazine, August 18, 1986 A godly fumigation? Yeah, that's not sick or intolerant at all. Or how about his #2 in the Christian Coalition? "I want to be invisible. I do guerrilla warfare. I paint my face and travel at night. You don't know it's over until you're in a body bag." --Ralph Reed, Norfolk Virginian-Pilot, 11/9/91 I won't even get into Falwell and the rest of them. So, do you see how it's easy to blow a minority sect out of proportion and stereotype it on lots of people?

I concur. Very good research.

BTW, try reading some of the comments people left on this Yahoo story. Some scary s***.

Didn't the pope just stock a bunch of cardinals into the slots of who decides the next Pope a few days ago?
