3. it is the way it is, this idiot cannot be allowed to blame every group... |
|
around him without a voice in this matter while alluding to being abused himself = how fucking predictable of a republican sleaze; and my straight up gay friends are non-violent, they want to push him on his dumb-ass

there's a lot of difference between guys who are gay and guys who use rent boys.

4. What does Foley have to do with being Gay???? |
|
No one blames straight people when some asshole rapes and kills a little girl.
This is a perfect opportunity to teach people and to separate the real bigots from the hobbyists.
Foley is a pedophile. He is also gay. He also may drive a Honda. None of these three things are related.

6. The abuse may be a contributing factor |
|
It doesn't excuse what he did, but as I have said repeatedly, victims of child molestation tend to become child molesters themselves.

:hug:
It's also disgusting that all the news stations found it necessary to invite every nutjob "family" orginization to come on their programs to discuss this matter. Concerned Women for America, Tony Perkins from the Family Research Council, even Bill Donahue, all had their say in this. Not a single GLBT orginization. x(

10. Well, I don't think a gay group SHOULD be brought in |
|
It has nothing to do with being gay, and even being on the show opposite the Christian token would present in the mind of the viewer of Christians against child molesters and gays for them.
Just would.
Don't fall for it. Ignore them. NO ONE is buying the gay red herring. He has today moved on to alcoholism and his own past abuse.
I would just let it lie. Responding to it adds credence where none exists.

11. yet republicans have destroyed the civilized world from within a shroud... |
|
of silence; no questions, no answers, no reason, no free press...only propaganda and the blaming of everything all around them when the shit hits the fan...Foley is just a microcosm of that fact
at some point, some group will have had enough
