SO why not just ignore it? It's not like he's hurting you, or affecting you in any way is he? I mean, it's not like he's created this really huge, slow-loading graphic with those words on it...

But, just as an aside, why not take a brief look at his profile page and see WHY he does it? Seems to be a pretty good reason for it, and not at all pretentious...

"The stress of witnessing the start of a Boy Scouts award ceremony for the college's president, Kenneth Ender, was so intense that he broke out in cold sweat, Brandon said. "

Actually I doubt it was the Boy Scouts that got this poor fella into cold sweats. Probably more like guilt, shame and a bit of conscience brought on the sweats. just MHO

***"At some point, I have to address the Board (of Trustees) on how to handle this student's complaint," Ender said.***

Ender and the Board of Trustees need to tell the whiny gay student to pound sand. If the college caves in to his whim, the gay student then will demand the school to cancel ROTC programs. He'll complain about the military's "don't ask, don't tell policy" to be homophobic.

Brandon said. "But that doesn't mean an institution that receives state and federal funding should open their doors to them."

What the little **** forgets is that if the campus accepts even one organization to come on campus to use their facilities they can't ban the Boy Scouts.

I don't know about the rest of FR much less the country but I'm sick and tired of all this victimhood crap.Why the sweating and panic? He was safer in the middle of a bunch of Boy Scouts than he would have been in the midst of any other bunch!

He cries bigotry if someone even looks at him. Well guess what? You are the bigot! Anyone disagrees with you and you want to call the Atheist/Agnostic Communist Liberal UnseMensh (ACLU) sniviling that you had your feelings hurt.

The **** needs to grow up before he even thinks about doing anything else!

--------------------------------------

Maybe he broke out in the cold sweat because he has a crush on Kenneth Ender.

With all due respect, this "INTREP" thing of your's is getting extremely TIRESOME. Here's a little HUMINT for you: it's OBNOXIOUS. Practically every thread I look into, inevitably, about 5-7 posts into the thread, there you are, "INTREP". You're sort of like the 21st Century's reincarnation of "KILLROY WAS HERE". Impressive.

You know, when I take my dog for a walk, she DOESN'T feel the need to piss on EVERY TREE.

You didn't break out in a cold sweat when you saw it posted, did you?

And you're some kind of hyper-sensitive DRAMA QUEEN. By the tone and content of your response, you would think I committed some gross crime against humanity.

Here's a hypothetical: When McDonald's forgets to put fries in you bag at the drive-up, do you return after closing and burn the place down?

I guess the reason you consider my post "rambling, incoherent, insanely idiotic, irrational" is because you've just described the internal ambience of your mind; it's a real five-alarm, three-ring circus in there.

One more thing, you really shouldn't arrogate God's mercy so flippantly.

Mr. Brandon is not only sexually dysfunctional--sexually very messed up. He is obviously suffering from serious mental aberrations as well. Why else, would he think that he has a right to ban those who do not accept his sadly skewed value system!

It is one thing to deny reality. It is something even more serious to demand that others join you in denying reality. But, then, I guess that is what modern "Liberalism" is really all about.

I wonder if this guy would allow the Rev. Fred Phelps to join his group... (Fred and his "church" are the one's from Kansas who protest funerals with signs of "G-d hates faggots.").

If they weren't allowed to join, I suppose that his group would have to be kicked off campus too... Of course, they'll say that Fred is openly hostile to homosexuals... But then, it seems that homosexuals are openly hostile to Scouts...

The Supreme Court did not rule that "the Scouts have a right to discriminate." In fact, in Dale v. Boy Scouts, it ruled that what the Scouts were doing was "not discrimination." It was, instead, the Scouts exercising their "freedom of association" under the First Amendment to the Constitution.

Discrimination is actually a good thing. It's deciding what one's priorities are, given a set of choices. It's predjucice (pre-judging, based on incorrect or incomplete information) that's bad... Personally, I'd love it if discrimination were completely outlawed... Then, Heidi Klum would HAVE to marry me, since she wouldn't have a say in the matter... You see, by saying "no," she's discriminating against me.

As I posted before, I'd really love to see some of the most virulent anti-gay protesters try to join some of the gay support groups, then take them to court... Or even better, have members of the Aryan Nations join the NAACP!

I wonder if Mr. Fainting Couch is torn up over that exclusively homosexual school being created with the taxpayer dollar.

I am outraged by this. I think The National Honor Society should be banned from the CCC campus because it discriminates against the academically challenged! The football team and all sports teams should be removed from all public schools for discriminating against those less physically fit. Cheerleading should be banned because it discriminates against ugly people.... I mean come on!

"What is wrong with this? Why do so-called minorities have the right to be offended, but not the rest of us."

The same reason we can have BET and The BLack Student Union, but not WET or the White Student Union. When you find out what that is, let me know.
