uuhhh I think history will debate you on that comment

Originally posted by arctic Firstly, homosexuality doesn't harm anyone. As far as I understand incest has serious medical implications, inbreeding generally results in all sorts of abnormalities, diseases, and defects. Homosexuality does not (Yes, one could argue that it can 'result in aids', but that's preventable, whereas I don't believe the complications that arise from inbreeding are). Admittedly that entire argument is based on the assumption that couples from the same family are going to have sex, but I think that's a perfectly reasonable assumption to make, people rarely remain celibate. I also think that the whole 'What next, bestiality?' argument has a bit of a floor, homosexuality is a relationship with another human being, another intelligent, consenting human being. Bestiality could be reasonably compared to rape, in my view. I realize you're probably going to cut that down in shreds, but hey, we'll see.

See, this is all very subjective when you start talking about "harm". Physical, emotional, spiritual, or societal. Depends on what aspect you want to look at it from. Also from what perspective. As in, does it cause harm from the gay persons POV? Probably not, what about from the state POV? Well, its kind of a PR disaster, and a real pain in the ass. How about from a television producer or a movie director? Now they have to put gays in movies or they are being "discriminatory".

I think it (bundled along with every other politically correct agenda item) is destroying freedom of speech. THATS harmful. People screaming UNFAIR! represent gays!

they tried to make LEX LUTHOR gay in a new Superman movie. It needs to stop. They are trying to pervert classic images (like that russian chechnya thing where the gamers put their game in the hands instead of fallen comrades) to get their message out.

And yes, I hate it being done by gays, straights, liberals, conservatives, men, and women. Its disgusting. But they are 1 group, and I dont care if everyone else is doing it too, they are causing harm to the consititutional rights of Americans with this headlong plunge into "include us in everything you do".

I call it annoying little brother syndrome.

that went it to my sig. Best comment EVER lol.

orbax: do enlighten us all; what does America protect Canada from? Isn't it america that's crying for our soliders to come help them? There hasn't been an instance in history where Canada has begged the states for help. There has been countless instances where america has begged canada for help.

korea
vietnam
cold war (with radar stations and missiles on canadian land)
first golf war
yugoslavia
somilia
second golf war

When has canada asked any help of the americans?

As a side note: You truly define the stereotypical american ignorance and arrogance that has made you one of the worlds most detested peoples. You are a very poor ambassador for your country.

Ill take your side not with pride. I don't want your respect. You sicken me. The fact that you hate me makes me so happy, you cannot imagine this feeling of Euphoria I get as I look upon those sweet savory words.

Considering Canada would be the next province of the Russian Empire without the ol' US of A, I would say that is 1 thing we protect you from. You have no military, anyone on earth except for the poorest of nations could crush your insignificant numbers instantly.

Good joke though, I DID laugh.

and If I am the quintessential American, I would say that makes me a PERFECT ambassador.

The next russian "provice". Hah. You did a great job saving Vietnam from the russian supported North. If America thought Canada was at a threat and needed to be protected then why put all the tanks and bases in Europe? Why not have a sinlge one in Canada? Your knowledge of history is truly lacking.

I noticed you failed you come up with even the slightest argument to Americas pleading for Canadian help in the past.

Also Russia has rebublics and not provinces. I'm sure you knew that though, and chose to make yourself look stupid.

I didnt see any "pleading" from you either. US smacked you in the face and said "send some troops bitches" and you did because we told you to.

Also, besides "DUHHHHHHHHH", what would you say to the fact that the US dropping the Atom bomb on Japan was actually a warning to the Russians. Did Canada have nukes? Did the have the economy or the power to support such a research project? No. The russians did, however. The very EXISTENCE of the US has created the existence of Canada. You guys'd be fuckin GONE if we hadnt defeated the Brits.

You guys'd be GONE if we hadnt broken Russia before the ekranoplan idea had taken effect.

Little left wing Canadians are so funny! You have no idea of what the world is like.

umm, we didn't send troops to iraq. Short term memory or what?

You have a very unique vision of the world.

Because Iraq is the only conflict...ever. Speaking of unique visions. Did you get yours from the back of a rainforest toad?

I can only think of one thing when talking with you orbax.

"there's no point in arguing with an idiot. They drag you down to their level, and then beat you with experience."

I'm done trying to drill even the slightest bit of a clue through your unimaginably dense skull.

good day.
