It's funny, because all Blacks have HIV. Everyone knows this.
In fact, HIV is a Black disease. It originates from Black people in Africa.
Classy, I have volunteered my time for over 20 years to help those with HIV.
I watched more than I care to count or remember, (black, white and brown) die all alone because of ignorance like yours.
No. This shit isn't funny. Not one bit.
No, Classy. I have never put down a black person for the color of their skin. I have, however, criticized individuals and organizations for their actions and behavior.
It was you, who in every debate, would call me "racist" for describing "gangsta" rap and popular black culture as self destructive and self deprecating. For explaining that as long as people in the black community act like this, and do these things, they will not succeed.
Now, how is that racist, Classy?
How is it racist to call the NAACP a racist political arm of the Democratic party? I am criticizing ACTIONS, not race, Classy.
Classy, YOU are the one here who has the trouble separating the inherent, from actions.
Finally, ignorant, small minded and bigoted attitudes like yours is the ONLY reason HIV is rampaging through the black community. HIV thrives in ignorance and hatred. Driving black men to live in the closet or "down low" as they like to say is literally killing black men and women.
Congratulations. Your ignorance is deadly.
Oh so HIV is now funny right? I am about to bury my third relative and this one I love to death. You make fun of people dying of disease and you throw out as some kind of joke. I would rip your fvcking head off you ignorant bitch.

I think the main issue that Classy is dealing with is his notion of what marriage is. To him it's a "religious tradition" and that's all fine and good, however we live in a country where the legal definition of marriage is secular. Classy mentions that "Christians aren't supposed to marry non-christians" but that is perfectly legal in this country and while it may be against his belief to have a Christian and a non-Christian marry, I'm sure he accepts it.
I don't see why this should be any different then gays having the right to marry. It may not be part of Classy's or other religious peoples beliefs, but since we live in a secular society where the definition of marriage isn't based on religious notions, they should be able to accept it.

You give black people an even worse reputation than you already have. That is beyond pathetic.
Can you please quote that scripture for me where blacks don't measure up? Now be very careful, because I guarantee you I know scripture very very well.
What's even more pathetic is using racial inequity and trials and tribulations countless numbers of people have went through in pursut of racial equality as a comparison to a group of people that desire a re-writing of laws/rights/constitution/et al due only to their sexual lifestyle.
Gay != black, another race, a minority, a different color, etc. True minorities don't have a choice in their skin color, ethnicity, disability, gender...homosexual hasn't been proven to be anything other than choice up to this point. Study after study points to environmental (both internal within the home and external within society) influences playing a major part with normal sexual development.
Head down the slippery slope and end up falling off the mountain entirely...
nevermind.
That's as silly as saying that until women's suffrage was passed, women weren't denied the right to vote.vAre you going to tell me that black people were never denied the right to vote, too? Don't insult my intelligence.Up until now Jane was not denied any rights of marriage, but Jane has been subject to guidelines that have been established one way or another.
Wrong, as described above.So Janes right to marry is and has been legal and not infringed on.
If that were a good argument then segregation never would've ended. Aren't you glad that your argument is bogus?But she has to follow the established guidelines.
So? People can't take property that isn't theirs. People can't lie under oath. The point is that the limitations that are imposed apply to everyone equally.People can't marry cousins or siblings, even if they are consenting. You can't be married to more than one person.
Obviously not, because nobody can explain how Jane can supposedly have rights equal to Adam's when Adam has the right to marry Eve yet Jane does not have the right to marry Eve.So the argument is whether the definition or guidleines that have been followed concerning marriage is legal?
Another ignorant conservative bigot.What's even more pathetic is using racial inequity and trials and tribulations countless numbers of people have went through in pursut of racial equality as a comparison to a group of people that desire a re-writing of laws/rights/constitution/et al due only to their sexual lifestyle.

Can you imagine the thrill of worshiping a god who creates gays and then condemns them for what they are and then, yourself, go out and campaign for that god. I can't imagine a better way to feel important, especially if I, myself, were from a put down race. I could deflect all the absurd hate that came my way and as equally absurdly transfer it over on to that other my god so hates. I would be a door mat that became a foot wiper and the equal of any KKK bigot. There is more than one road to equality.
Doncha know...da debil created dem homos...
God its so damn old and tired. Its the same argument just with different dressing. I am not obligated to fight for the civil rights of every minority and somehow overlook or brush aside the reason.
I mentioned the bible because if any of you actually knew a damn thing about the civil rights fight, rather throwing out some talking points, you would know it didn't begin or was sustained because of some legal issue.
It was grounded solidly in bible believing people. MLK, Vernon Johns, Johns neice Barbara Rose Johns, Megar Evers, C. K. Steele, etc. These were church going bible thumping folks. They fought and died believing they should treated as equals not because of some constitution, but because of their belief in God. You don't know a flipping thing about civil rights.
One important piece I disagree with from Woolfe's link:
If the plaintiff's contend that, then they are demonstrably wrong. In defining marriage as between one man and one woman, Prop 8 also disallowes polygamists, incestuous couples, and others from marrying the person of their choice.
But thanks for proving that at least one African American can be as bigoted as anyone. :thumbsdown:
Huh? No it doesn't.
Polygamy is already prohibited by other laws, not by Prop 8. Prop 8 discusses which 2 can marry, not that only 2 can marry which is already the law.
It doesn't have anything to do with incest - an incestuous couple can be 'man and woman'.
What others? Prop 8 is aimed directly at overturning the CA constitution's protection for gay equal rights in marriage, that had been confirmed by the CA Supreme Court.
Polygamy restrictions needs to go too which like homosexual restrictions also founded on Christian bigotry instead of individual freedom our constitution calls for.
<not mormon not muslim not crazy or rich enough to want two. Just believe in freedom.
Luther stated that he could not "forbid a person to marry several wives, for it does not contradict Scripture."
