@Germanicworlds Amen to that. I'm kinda tired of the PC Police telling us what we can and can't say, yet they're supposedly the "tolerant" ones.

@GojyotheFeared What in the actual fuck are you babbling about, Gay Cunt?

You're right, it's more like your rage about being gay makes you confused.

This commercial is gay

@GojyotheFeared As long as they don't make offending people illegal, then the USA will still be able to keep some of it's freedom of speech.

@Germanicworlds

noone is saying you can't use the word gay. It's using it in certain contexts that pisses people off.

@damiion666

It's called common sense and logic, idiot.

In other words, anyone with a logical mind and a sense of rationality and reason knows that you don't simply become or turn gay. Either you are, or you are not and forcing people to be one or the other when they are not only does damage both in the emotional and psychological sense. Hence why "that's so gay" is a blatant disregard of rationality and common sense.

[Germanicworlds]

So is the USA going to become like Europe, where it's illegal to say certain words? That's the way it seems to be going. Freedom of speech will be sacrificed if it does.

@GojyotheFeared "It was never intended to all people to simply shoot their mouths off with a wreckless disregard..." ...and who's in charge of deciding what "wreckless disregard" means? I think I'll take my interpretation any day over someone labeling my speech as "wreckless disregard". As long as I'm not yelling fire in a crowded theater I'll value what i got. This isn't europe or canada where they have laws that u can't offend people lest they deem u racist.

@damiion666

It's true intent was more political than anything.

It was never intended to all people to simply shoot their mouths off with a wreckless disregard of reason and rationality, which using the word gay to mean stupid or dumb is.

@damiion666

"it was meant to protect unpopular speech from being extinquished." partially true.

It's actual intent is that people can voice their opinions, even about the president, without fear of reprimand.

Yet look at what's going on. People being arrested via web blogs under the wink wink of terrorists for voicing an opinion against the president and "free speech zones" in Washington.
