Just because a blond asks you to quit calling her blond doesn't make the words equivalent.

Who the heck said the words had to be "equivalent"?

The point is that people are allowed to decide what terms they want to be called. And civilized people abide by reasonable requests.

To argue as many do here that there is nothing wrong with "faggot" is to argue against civlized behavior. That has been my point from the beginning.

Way too many vulgarians here. And claiming to be "conservative" as well.

You did!!
Go back a few posts. You said they would become equivalent when the blond asks you to quit calling her that?

Don't feel bad about not being able to follow your own logic.
Got any more names to call me?

There is nothing conservative about that statement?

"Way too many vulgarians here."

You make a good point.

The Weekly Standard recently reported on a poll of potty-mouthed web sites.

Of course there were dozens of winners on the left. But the hands down winner on the Foul Mouth First Prize on the right was......... Free Republic.

Maybe Free Republic should be drummed out of the conservative movement for making conservatives look bad?
