Barbara_Gordon I'm arguing with the phrase, "the gay director..."
They didn't say, "the caucasian, middle-aged, brown-haired director..."
They didn't say, "the gay jewish director..."
They didn't say, "the director..."
None of those identifyers mean anything in regards to the movie, but they're using one of them anyway. Why? And Im saying that its the same as saying "The African-American director," or "The Hispanic director," both of which are done often, and have been done for decades. Im not trying to belittle your position, Im just saying thats how, unfortunately, the American press works.

Common theme?
. . . Bitching.
Man, and I thought the bar was a place for fighting, drinking, and explicit acts.I know right. For some reason, if I try to start a debate in The Watchtower, it just degenerates into mild cybersex. Anyway, Im off to bed. Its been nice debating you all, Ive missed KAPOW for just this reason! 3nodding Thanks Wally, Barb, and Shilo. biggrin

[quote="Barbara_Gordon"
You're right. It /is/ how it works. But it's wrong, and I'll protest, and I'll do what I can to change it. I won't just lay back and accept it. I will fight. And maybe, I'll win. But I won't stop fighting until I do, or until I'm no longer capable at all.
I know, its all we can do. And eventually, we will win, when our generation takes the government. But by that time, people younger than us will be railing against something else, and cursing us for being close-minded. xd

I fully believe that the world isn't a bad place now. I fully believe that we can make it even better.
And I believe it can stay that way, or keep improving. I'm naive, a little. I'm a huge idealist. But I really do believe it, and I don't think anything can change my mind.
(And Rex, I'm not talking about Kapow!'s d**k, I'm talking about the character himself. d**k and I have talked about the whole thing, and we may or may not have nefarious plotting going on... ninja )

The best part there is that the video was put up by someone from Godhatesfags.com. How ******** pathetic is it that they're so oblivious to their church being pwnd on national television that they use it to brag?
I really can't get into this all too much, as it's a touchy subject for me. People like that drove me away from the church. I can't stand people who use the bible as a tool of hatred, and as sad as this sounds, I applaud that anchor for her restraint.
