NBCUniversal Celebrating Spirit Day, Taking Stand Against Bullying Toward LGBT Youth
NBC ^ | 10-19-16 | unattributed

Posted on 10/20/2016 11:44:47 AM PDT by smokingfrog

Thursday, the NBCUniversal family – including NBC 6 – will join with GLADD and Go Purple to celebrate Spirit Day. The initiative encourages people nationwide to take a stand against bullying and show solidarity with lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender youth.

You can join in the efforts by wearing purple to help send a message of unity and that bullying is wrong and unacceptable.

If you and your co-workers join in on the campaign, share your photos and messages of support across social media simply by using the hashtags #PrideNBCU and #SpiritDay.

When I went to make a car payment online recently, I was disappointed to see Toyota promoting this kind of nonsense on their website and social media.

I don’t approve of bullying, but I also don’t approve of the targeted anti-bullying efforts. we should simply oppose all bullying.

Bullying is bullying. And bullies seldom act alone these days. Group bullying is the rage.

And skins are thinner by far than they were when I was young.

Snowflakes are at an ALL TIME HIGH due to what? The diminished role of the HUSBAND/ PROVIDER in families. (u are lucky to have two different sex parents) : P

First they steal the ENTIRE month of June, for ‘gay” pride “week”. That month typically expands into the last 2 weeks of May!

The they steal December 1 as “world AIDS day”!

Then they steal October 20 as “spirit day”!

I am probably forgetting several more, and even if there aren’t any, there soon will be.

I say STOP the madness!!!! Let there be NO “gay”weeks, months, or days except for Halloween, which they’ve always had!

http://kernelmag.dailydot.com/issue-sections/staff-editorials/10658/halloween-gay-history/

The rest of us can pretend we are—or even actually become—Orthodox Christian “extremists”, and skip Halloween altogether! That’s especially good to do in 2016, when we have a real WITCH running for President!!!

We can spend that night praying for Trump and Pence, and do something special for the children the following weekend. The whole point of skipping Halloween is NOT to deprive the children, but to save them and all others from “gaydom”, Hillary, and Satan!!!!

What happens when these non-bullied snowflakes run into reality? Not everyone has their best interests at heart.

For instance, when they have an unreasonable boss? Or a con man knocking on their door? Or a denizen of BLM entering their home at midnight to liberate their TV?

Or, just a waiter that won't bring them a 2nd Pumpkin-Infused Organic Craft Beer in a timely manner?

Now, do kids need to be beaten or physically assaulted? No. But I've always maintained that a little bullying isn't necessarily a bad thing. Teaches them to recognize when trouble is lurking, and how to deal with it in an appropriate and proportionate manner.

I don’t approve of bullying...

If the queers, steers and uncertains would just keep out of other people's faces they'd be left alone. They bring it on themselves.

You beat me to it. Every day has become a celebration of LGBTWHATEVER. They’ve pushed BLM out of the limelight. Can’t we have one day, just one, that doesn’t center around perverts?

I say we start sending BLM hoax junk-mail from “Queer Lives Matter”.

Translation:

This is to legitimize systematic bullying of anyone who does not actively and completely approve of homoeroticism.

Let’s all understand what the Homo-activist left means by “bullying.”

It ain’t what you think.

In warmer climates, they've moved that pervert-fest to October. So we get a double helping of feces in our faces.

Yeah. And I forgot about the “Day of Silence”!!!!

The “gay” calendar thefts even interfere with the Orthodox Calendar, since Ascension and Pentecost often occur in June!!

We’ve got to take back our calendar!!!!

Don’t even think about expressing an opinion that “homosexual activity” is abnormal behavior or you are instantly labeled a bully.

I was disappointed(though not completely surprised in this day and age, sadly) to see my favorite sports team supporting this.

Exactly. By these folks term, agreeing with Biblical teaching on sex and marriage is “bullying”.
