Dear, why are you on this thread?

Are you gay, is that why you're here so emotionally defensive of homosexuals?

Are you a religious fanatic?

Is that something that bothers you dear? Do you dislike social conservatives?

Thanx for pinging the moderator. If you want to post the mail I sent you you have my permission. I asked you to stop the name calling. But now I see you are asking for help in your effort to smear me. I left the thread and you made a public issue out of a private one. So call whoever you want.

Seems like only yesterday that they came out of the closet, and now they got unions? What's next, pension plans?

Also, domestic abuse among cohabitating homosexual males is more frequent and more violent. It is their dirty little secret that they hardly ever talk about.

"The researchers report a high rate of battering within the context of intimate homosexual partnerships, with 39% of those studied reporting at least one type of battering by a partner over the last five years."
--The American Journal of Public Health (December 2002, Vol. 92, No. 12)

"Homosexual activists David Island and Patrick Letellier -- both of San Francisco and co-editors of the National Gay and Lesbian Domestic Violence Network Newsletter -- write in their book, Men Who Beat the Men Who Love Them, that domestic violence is a primary health problem for individuals involved in homosexual behavior ranking behind only AIDS for males, cancer for females, and drug abuse for both."

"Island and Letellier write: "The probability of violence occurring in a gay couple is mathematically double the probability of that in a heterosexual couple...we believe as many as 650,000 gay men may be victims of domestic violence each year in the United States." (Page 14)"
--American Family Association of Michigan

"Just out of curiosity, do you know any gays?"

Yes, I do. I'm not doubting the accuracy of the study statistics. I'm just saying that we really don't have enough information from this article to draw conclusions or comparisons with straight people. If you throw all my straight neighbors into a study (including the couple on one side who've been married for thirty years and the frat boys on the other side who seem to have a new "relationship" every weekend), the "average relationship" is probably about 1.5 years (or less), too. It seems the author is trying to draw a parallel between gay relationships and straight marriages, rather than straight relationships. I just don't see that this article is particularly informative.

You have created an idiotic situation, answer your own questions.

Not really. If you're going to justfy and compare your pet perversion to a normal man woman relationship expect to justify it for others...if you can't or won't it just reveals your hypocritically flawed political philosophy.

You failed to clarify and answer my questions

Ummm...as much as you'd like me to "clarify" your own questions for you it would be nearly immpossible to know what's in the mind of someone who hasn't the capacity to understand their own feckless arguments. As far as answering your question, try asking one...I'd know it if you used one of those question mark "thingys" at the end of your sentenece.

and then you keep repeating the same question from thread to thread after I responded. I consider that stalking and it's clearly a violation of the rules.

and then, and then...(Sound of sniveling) I'm flattered but you are in a long line of Liberaltarians who show up on the sodomy threads comparing perversion to a normal man woman relationship, if you or the rest of your ilk keep making the same ludicrous comparisons so will I. Now either get a pair and justufy your silly hypocritical position, ignore me or stop whining when your logic falls apart. Either way stop sending me threats to my private mail and stop flattering your self that I'm "stalking" you.

I_Love_My_Husband called breakem a Liberaltarian and breakem freepmailed her back saying I asked you to stop the name calling.

BWAHAHAHAAAA....breakem thinks a political statement is name calling?

BWAHAHAHAAAA....stop it...my side is hurting...I can't take it any more...

Is that right breakem? Are you just another GLAAD subversive trying to justify perversion on FreeRepublic? That explains a lot. No wonder you're so "sensitive".

the article states more than a ten year life span for heterosexual first marriages in the US. the study discusses a 1.5 year life expectancy for homosexual marriages in the netherlands.

just out of curiosity, what is the life span of heterosexual first marriages in the netherlands?

It is just psychologically strange to be obsessed about other's sexuality in the manner of some activists.

I agree.

You suspect wrong. The Federal Marriage Amendment – H.J. Res. 56 is alive and well.

It's worth noting that the author of that bill is small-l libertarian Marilyn Musgrave.

I agree.

That probably makes you a hypocrite.

Scripter you are being flagged because you made some comments to me and Clint flagged you in his question to me. I you are flagged because Clint flagged you in his attack on me.

Like so many of your questions Clint the question about my sexual preference has been answered. In fact I know I made references in replies to you that answered the question. You can try to remember or keep playing Sherlock Holmes.

Since you took so much time to recap our exchanges because you seem to think you are onto something, let's hear the rest of the story.

I have said that adults have a right to have sex with other adults as long as they are not forced. The absence of force is the essence of a free decision.

I also said that you cannot enter into a mutual contract with children or animals because they cannot legally consent. About the only other position I took was that the constitution does not claim as a purpose to name all human rights. and I have given numerous other examples of human rights which are not in the constitution and which the government cannot take away.

You have stated that you can have sex with your blow-up doll and pets because they are all your property. I stated that my standard was consent and that property cannot consent.

About two weeks ago you made some off-the-wall remark about my position on the 10th amendment. Your remark made no sense to me and I asked you several times to clarify it. You have ridiculed me and chased me from thread to thread since then repeating your question about kids and animals. I have asked you to stop and you continue only to ridicule.

You asked me to explain the difference between having sex with inanimate property and pets. The question is very ignorant in my opinion and I will not address it. I have told you this half a dozen times. If you continue it, I'll ask the administrator to stop you.

If you want to engage me in a dialogue, you will address me respectfully or I will report you. I will not tolerate stalking. If you have something civil to ask or add do so, I've been here amost 5 years and I don't run, but I also don't tolerate stalking.

Regarding liberalitarian. I am not a liberal, nor am I a libertarian or any hybrid. On a site where Liberals are not allowed and are excoriated this is a pejorative comment and name calling. Just as was my retort asking her if she was a fanatic. But you knew that didn't you? So don't try to clean it up.
