You know, some people accuse me of being WAY too biased on political issues because of my strong liberal views.

And to those people I would like to say...

Yes. Yes I am. Grass is also green, water is wet, and fire is hot.

I bring this up, because apparently there was a person that was a little miffed about the recent political threads. I understand that, I really do. I just think it's stupid and I have no intention of stopping. I mean, it's not like conservatives are going to stop insulting people like me anytime we suggest Civil Equality.

So yeah, not stopping.

Don't get me wrong, I have every intention of enforcing our rule. But I also know the difference between insulting a political stance, and insulting a person.

In other words, I can say that I think that conservatives are insane bigots.

But I CANNOT and WILL NOT say that a person is an insane bigot for being a conservative.

Get the difference? Probably not.

But whatever, my group, my rules.

This moderate conservative has 0 problems with this stance. Hence why I believe that liberals can be rather naive and a bit too idealistic and unrealistic at times, but not that a person is naive or too idealistic and unrealistic for being liberal.

But let's be honest, we all suck in the States this election season given who both parties will end up nominating. So at least we have our common suckiness to share in, yayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy!!! :trollestia: (and yes, I know this doesn't apply to you Queen since you're in Canada; honestly been pretty jelly of you guys with Justin Trudeaux, he seems pretty cool :moustache:)

Actually, I'm in America, I'm just a Canadian citizen. BUT!! If I were am American, I would...

A) post a picture of the American flag.
B) shout 'MURICA!! And
C) Demand that you all suck my penis.

But since I am Canadian...

God Save the Queen! And have a nice day.

(THE JOKE IS THAT CANADIANS ARE BETTER PEOPLE THAN AMERICANS)

(EXCEPT ITS LESS OF A JOKE AND MORE OF A FACT)

Well you certainly seem to have less drama than we do. :derpytongue2:

That's because we know how to keep AK-47s out of the hands of mass murderers.

Hows that second amendment working out for you guys BTW?

5356021
Eh, given how many guns there are in this country it honestly could be far worse. And I'm not even a gun owner. That's not to say the mass shootings aren't terribly tragic or that gun laws don't have to change, but I still think that however they do change (if that ever happens >_>) that gun rights still need to be quite protected. Heck, that's not even just a conservative stance; I've got a very liberal friend who's a veteran and far more passionate about gun rights than I am, and argues for them from a socialist POV.

But the sad fact is that nothing's gonna change anytime soon because nobody on either side even focuses on every aspect of the problem. Can't solve gun deaths in this country if you're not willing to address inner city shootings. That and the liberals don't understand guns or gun rights, while conservative lawmakers will always bow to the NRA. So on that issue, the gridlock is more depressing than anything else.

5355986
Justin turdeau sucks.

5356037
Couldn't say myself one way or the other, I've only followed his activities to a slight extent.

5356056
yeah, with his new laws, my family lost their house and went into poverty. So I don't like him.

5356058
Oh dear, that's terrible! I'm very sorry for you. :fluttershysad: Can't say I blame you for holding that sentiment.

5356075
yeah his upper class, is actually lower middleclass. So my dad still has to get only paid 50% of what he makes. As such, we lost our house. We couldn't afford it.

5355812 The definition of a bigot, "a person who is intolerant towards those holding different opinions." That sounds like a lot of liberals I know, especially the sjw type :ajsmug:

I'm sorry, I can't hear you over the sound of Christian fundamentalists telling me I have to use the Men's Room because I was born with a penis.

Here, let me close this window, that'll drown out those protestors quoting the Bible and telling me that Im going to hell.

Please, tell me more about how Liberals are the bigots.

And while you're at it, why don't you go over the recent track record Trump has had with racism and misogyny.

5356088 Wow that sucks, kind of surprised people haven't started to stand against that and petition some of those laws.

5356140
yeah, but the majority of Canada is on welfare, so they don't give af.

5355812 Isn't that the sad truth

5356116 I will try to answer this to the best of my ability, somehow without trying to offend you, which may be quite the feat.

I'll even write them out in number points! how fun!

1. Yes I am a conservative, although a classic conservative at that. Not quite an extreme right wing one, but definitely not a moderate.
2. yes, I just so happen to be a Christian, but no, I really don't give a shit about what bathroom you use or what you call yourself. The Target bathroom fiasco was a security issue. most conservatives cared more about pedophiles misusing their policy rather than actual transsexuals themselves.
3. currently the only christians that seem eager to give you a bad time by saying things like that, are westboro baptists. And yes, those guys are assholes.
4. whenever i get into a debate with a liberal online, they turn it around into an argument and decide to stop using points, and instead call me names like a bigoted racist homophobe nazi... despite the fact that i never talked about anything to do with these things.
5. Trump was never a racist until the moment he decided to run for president. On top of that, he has a track record of hiring women for higher positions.

tata :ajsmug:

5356116
*facepalms*

well, I'm an atheist, so I kind of agree. But did u really need to bring up that ur trans? Like seriously? That's was a guilt trip.

5356148
finally, someone who thinks like I do! except the religion.

1) This was immediately apparent.

2) Funnily enough, this does not make me feel better.

3) Yeah, no. It's not AS bad as it used to be, but there are still plenty of people, including neighbors, who feel compelled to remind me of my damnation.

4) And yeah, here I see your point. It's just like whenever I get into an argument with a conservative, the end up quoting the Bible. And yes, I am guilty of those assumptions. It's balance of probability. You once mentioned that your in your sixties (I think, please correct me if I'm wrong). And you just now mentioned that you are a conservative Christian. Since MOST people in their sixties are homophobic, and MOST conservatives are homophobic, and MOST Christians are homophobic, I can safely guess that you are a homophobic person. But racist? Nazi? Probably not.

5) HAHAHAHAHA!! HAHAHAHAHA.... hahaha... right right. Funny. A person doesn't just BECOME racist overnight. And be MAY hire more women, I don't know. But I DO know that he has Tweeted many many MANY sexist tweets. So yeah. I don't give a fuck if he has a woman for VP. As far as I'm concerned, that's just a ploy to get in her pants.

Queen of Fools

5356154

Yes. Yes it was.

Are you saying that conservatives SHOULDN'T feel guilty for painting Transgenders as pedophiles?

5356144 Huh... not sure what to think or say about that. Is the welfare up there that good?

5356116 Funny thing is I just got done hearing about that. I watch comedy news so I'm a tad behind on somethings.

5356148 There's a 90's news interview you may want to look at.

Grey Mane, don't ALLUDE to a video, just post the video.

5356174 lol, you mean the post where I said I was 69?..... I'll give you 69 seconds to figure out if that was just a dumb joke or not :ajsmug:

I can't believe I have to, but here goes two more points

1. If someone comes up to you, and acts like a total jackass while simultaneously telling you how you're going to burn for eternity, and yet say how proudly they are Christian, They are throwing out the whole love your neighbor/ compassion part of the new testament out the window. As for all christians are homophobes, that is called only hearing the vocal minority. Back in the times of the old testament, homosexuality was seen as abnormal, and therefore a sin, often punishable with death. Later on the sermon on the mount corrected this, by saying we should not judge others for their sins, because we're all sinners.

2. oh boy oh boy. If you're looking for a racist, agenda pushing presidential candidate, he was already elected nearly 8 years ago, somehow managing to make racial division an even bigger problem that when MLK did what he did. Trumps got a mouth, but if anything, he insults anyone, not limited to race or gender. I can't stand it when the argument against him is implying that illegal and muslims from high risk countries are races. :ajbemused:

OK, this conversation is over. I'm sorry, but anyone who calls Martin Luther King jr and President Obama racist just doesn't know what they are talking about.

5356179
that's not what the whole thing was about. It was the concern that non lgbt would use the wrong restroom

e.g. a 50 year oldman spying on 6 year old girls in a bathroom.

grey mane

5356202 Aww, but then I have to start looking things up again. And it's late, I don't know.
Joke aside, ya give me a minute.

5356181
yeah, but the taxes r crap.

5356234 when did I call Martin Luther King Jr. racist? I merely said that racial division is as bad as it was before he seriously helped end it. If the Obama's didn't cause racial division, then why would they do something like back the BLM terrorist group or Michelle out of the blue going on about how the white house was apparently built by black slaves, creating an us vs. you arguement. I can't stand how i'm apparently supposed to feel some kind of white guilt, despite the fact that slavery was normal throughout the entire world at the time, America was among the first to actually abolish it and there are still over 40 million slaves in the world today, which is a bloody lot more people than the American slaves.

On top of that, I'm only half white. I have south american indian heritage. But because i look european, i've got instant white privilege... which is what they tell me, mine still hasn't arrived in the mail yet :/

5356237 a 40-50 year old guy walked in to target (while filming to prove a point) simply asked if he could use the women's bathroom because the men's room made him "feel uncomfortable".... and the manager said "absolutely!"..... imagine if it wasn't a guy who was there for a video and had ulterior motives :unsuresweetie:

5356319 I honestly don't understand the point you were trying to make with this video. Sounds like one of those jokes that you think sounds funny but out loud it comes off as utterly inappropriate.

BLM isn't a terrorist group. They have never been a terrorist group. They have never done anything even remotely close to terrorism. This guy can explain it better than I can...

And on the Bathroom issue: Pedophiles don't care bout laws. They will just as easily molest a child regardless of bathroom laws. And that's not really even my issue (don't get me wrong, I hate pedophiles just as much as the next girl). My issue was that conservatives were saying that Transgenders were predators.

5356328 No joke was being made, you were saying that trump hired women into good positions in his company. As a counter argument to Queen's statement about him being masochistic. If I wanted to make a joke on the matter I would have used a more recent news clip, like this one.

5356340 Well it seems like everything they've done so far has divided us all. They're the same as the new black panthers.

Somehow to obama, when an islamic terrorist kills people, it's a gun problem (the guy was carrying an illegal firearm by the way) yet when a black man is killed because he was not only resisting arrest, but also going for his gun, it's a race problem... and a gun problem?


5356353 I was talking about Trump not you. And he eventually apologized to Megyn during an interview with her. (as a side note, what he said about Rosie O'donnell was frickin hilarious.)

Queen of Fools

5356369

Yes. It's always going to be a gun problem. Because people should not have guns.

5356369 He only apologized because he knows how to play a crowed. And it doesn't matter how funny it was, it just means he shouldn't have said it in the first place.

So it's ok to be a vile excuse for a human being as long as it's funny?

What, do you think that the Jews just didn't get Hitler's joke?

5356393 disarm civilians so they can't fight the tyrannical government? Hitler already tried that.

also one does not become a "vile excuse for a human being" because of a single snarky comment. By that logic, we're all vile, which makes humanity doomed from the start.



5356395 so it would have been better if he didn't apologize, correct? or exactly the same? And I only said his Rosie joke was funny, which it was. I thought liberals were supposed to be tolerant, or is that just to other liberals?...

Queen of Fools

5356428

How about we restrict guns so that only the trained and mentally heathy can wield them AND have a tyrannical government. And through in some decent heathcare.

Oh right. Canada did that.

I differ to my original statement: God Save the Queen.

And Trump isn't a vile excuse for a human being because of a snarky comment.
Trump was a vile excuse for a human being. And then he made a snarky comment.

5356443 any evidence to back up your claims? :ajsmug:

Queen of Fools

5356448

Yes.

His response to Orlando.

(See, last Christian I talked to this about told me to my face that Orlando was God's will. So you can understand why I might be a little edgy, both about the subject and Christians in general)

grey mane

5356428 No he shouldn't have insulted her to begin with, I'm not quite sure you're understanding me. Or if you're just twisting my words. And I'm not a liberal, I don't side with any political group because they only have their interests at heart not the public's.

And again funny or not he still shouldn't have said it. All that comment did was show his character as a person then, as he continues to show it now. And even more of who he is as a person, and I don't like what I see.

I wouldn't vote for Clinton either as she's basically had the out look of a pancake up to this point.

5356468 Sadly that comment got him the backing of the NRA almost immediately.

5356468 Then I hope you understand that you were talking to a westboro baptist church member. They are the same people who picket soldiers funerals and say it was "God's will". They say God hates everyone... are they God? It's putting words in others mouths.


5356480 but his comments against Megyn weren't funny! :rainbowhuh: The dude runs his mouth like an Olympic sprinter, I just can't help but agree with many of his positions. Such as his 4 step tax reform. People love calling him an idiot, yet in one of his books he explains that this is his tactic. This guy is playing everyone! To tell the truth, I would have much rathered someone such as Dr. Ben Carson to become president (he would have done wonders medical wise ) but once he dropped out and endorsed Trump, I realized something. I would rather anyone, ANYONE, over Clinton. At first I was forced to like Trump, but the way he treats our veterans and some of his plans for the future helped ease my mind. He's also done well with softening a few of his policies, except for his stance on illegal immigrants (which considering he almost lost his life to one, I don't blame him). I'd support a VERY successful business man over an obvious criminal anyday.
