Honestly, you said it directly. You compared gay rights to gazpacho. I didn't/don't think you're anti-gay that's why I didn't understand your comparison.tempo_n_groove said:
This is why I wanted to move on.mrussel1 said:
I don't know that I"ve gone over this with you, so humor me. Do you think legalized gay marriage is an extreme position? Those are rights, along with all of the tax, end of life, and other benefits that come with that marriage.tempo_n_groove said:mrussel1 said:
I don't think supporting rights for LBGT people is extreme. That's pretty mainstream and human. There are "far left" people certainly, but this was not a good example.tempo_n_groove said:

There’s no comparison between the two sides. Sure, they each have their extremes but there’s no way that you can compare any member of the squad with what the repubs have in Matt Getts Off, Maggie Three Names, Lorena Bobbit, George Costanza or Josh Hee Hawley.josevolution said:
That’s what I was trying to convey! You said better thanksThe Juggler said:I really don't like people comparing Marge Greene with someone on the other side of the political spectrum and simply saying something like "well one is far right and the other is far left." No. One is a racist, wackjob bigot. The other believes in rights for people MGT discriminates against. It's not the same thing.
If both sides were the same, Al Franken would still be in the senate and even if he were, it’d be a huge stretch to compare the two parties’ extremes as being the “same.”
You have far left and far right, yes? So you can compare them on a scale. One is far left and one is far right. On different points of a political scale which I tried to convey in that one is for LBGT rights and the other enjoys Gazpacho police. It's not that hard of a concept to grasp.
It's called a political spectrum.
Here we go again...The Juggler said:
But it is not a normal political spectrum though. It's not like it used to be and we should not pretend it is.tempo_n_groove said:

Being for someone's right's is one thing, and shouldn't be labeled extreme, by the way.
Being against those same people's rights is simply unamerican and not, in any way, equivalent to the other side of the spectrum.
We won't come to any common ground on this so let's just move on.
Never in the history of this forum have I been against the LBGT community yet I get these questions. It started with what I thought was something so simple as trying to point out which side of the aisle someone is on. It was just that simple but just like anything on here that doesn't go with the flow, everyone piles on one part of a comment and it snowballs.
To answer your question No, it should be a standard right. Where on earth would you ever pull that from anyways?

Republicans say AOC is the equivalent. Both sides are the same. Problem resolved.The Juggler said:
Sorry man. I just think people like Marge Greene are so far off the spectrum, that there is no comparison on the other side.tempo_n_groove said:mrussel1 said:

RF&P park is 2 minutes from my house. It's where I coached my son for years. It's a beautiful stadium where they hold the 14-15 year old world series every year, and this is probably the event because it was this week. What a fucking dick. I'm going to find out where he is at.mickeyrat said:0 -

follow up from a tweet last week....gift article.Confidential affidavits detail reasoning for police raid of Kansas newspaper
By Jonathan O'Connell and Jon Swaine
August 19, 2023 at 15:12 ET
MARION, Kan. — The police chief who led a widely criticized raid of a newspaper office in Kansas told a judge that a reporter there accessed a restaurant owner’s driving record from a state database and could not have done so without “either impersonating the victim or lying about the reasons why the record was being sought,” according to confidential court records used to obtain a search warrant for the premises.
In sworn affidavits that have not previously been reported, Marion Police Chief Gideon Cody also told a judge that the Kansas Department of Revenue had confirmed to him that Marion County Record reporter Phyllis Zorn had downloaded the private record. The documents provide the first public accounting of the evidence that was cited to justify the raid.
Zorn confirmed to The Washington Post that she downloaded the record, a process that involves entering a name, date of birth and driver’s license number. She said she did so to verify information she had received from a source. The newspaper’s editor and publisher, Eric Meyer, said he does not believe Zorn committed a crime. He said that the record was accessed for research purposes and that there was no intent to use it maliciously. “There is no criminal intent,” he said.
Meyer allowed for the possibility that the paper had technically crossed a line by searching the database but said that “even if it was illegal for us to do that, the police response was like bringing the SWAT team out for jaywalking.”
The Aug. 11 police raid sparked outrage among First Amendment advocates and news organizations across the nation. Officers seized computers, phones and other records during the search, a virtually unprecedented event in recent American history. Meyer’s home also was searched, as was the home of a city council member. The Record said stress from the raid contributed to the sudden death the following day of Meyer’s 98-year-old mother, Joan, a co-owner of the newspaper.continues....
