    The sword has two edges and cuts in both directions. Poor Mayor Pete, he's getting slashed in the back swing of the LBGTQLMNOP's back swing by the other edge of their sword. I believe he will be the next Democrat besides Harris to fall by the side of the campaign trail. Don't worry someone from the lame stream media will be along shortly to dispatch the stragglers. I guess they didn't know or couldn't tell "Plugs" Biden was the DNC's favorite candidate. I think he is their favorite because they can push their agenda without risking their own positions. I think poor ole Dementia Joe will do exactly what they tell him to, then he's there to take the fall if anything goes south, he's the perfect Manchurian Candidate. Then there's the Ukraine.....

    So religious people are bad even when they try to do good for poor people regardless of who they are..
    Progressivism is the same thing as insanity.

    One left wing website admonished Progressives that the purges aren't supposed to start until after they win the revolution. They are jumping the gun by cancelling fellow progressives before their victory.

    Ironically, iirc, the SA was the first Christian charity to begin hiring gay people.

    There's a message: appeasement does not work, it's got to be all-out no-holds-barred political war and no more Mr. Nice Guy.

    He’s one of the few moderate candidates on the trail. I’d like to see him take the nomination; long shot as it may be.
    I don’t care what one activist or another is saying on the matter.

    It goes to show that this segment of the gay community isn't about gay rights. It's about tearing down everything traditional.

    It’s a segment that doesn’t like the SAs history of refusing services to gay couples.

    I don't like the demoncrats history of supporting the kkk. I don't hold that against them now.

    Nope. But i do think that this portion of the gay community is destructive as is gay activity itself.

    You’re free to hold wrong opinions. That’s your right.

    Yes it is. But it's not an opinion.

    If you can't change at a historical juncture and get any credit for it, just refuse to change any further and go to war instead.

    I didn’t say I agree with the activist’ stance. I just stated what it was. I don’t give to or support the SA, but that’s mainly because they’re a church.

    Bottom line. The vast majority of gay people will vote for a slightly flawed Buttigieg over a heavily flawed Trump who represents the party trying to outlaw their marriages and allow landlords to evict them.

    Bringing it up just to refuse to discuss it is strange. I’ll just assume you can’t state it clearly then.

    wait, I just browsed this really quick.

    He's being "outed" for being a bell ringer for the salvation army?
    holy wow, I've been a bell ringer (Kiwanis) on and off for many years, I had no idea I was being offensive by collecting money for what IMO is a very good cause.
    I mean holy wow, if that's a failure of the purity test, its a sad day.

    I am sad to admit this is the first presidency where I will be entering the voting booth not still contemplating the positions of the candidates.
    I would vote for a broom at this point over trump.

    Another slight flaw of Pete's ..... apparently he doesn't want the black vote, at least not in South Bend.

    Bernie's co-chair, a fiery black woman, goes off on him about it.

    10 minute vid; first 2 minutes is the meat of it.

    I’m still holding out hopes that a golden retriever will enter the race. They’d have my vote in a heartbeat.

    You mean like trying to keep sodomy illegal?
    Trying to keep gays from military service?
    Trying to keep gays from civil unions — and then marriage?
    Trying to keep gays from medical care, employment, and adoption?
    American religious organizations pushing for torture to cure homosexuality and kill the gay bills overseas?

    If that is y’all trying to appease gay rights I would hate to see what political war is?

    Dragging them behind pickups down south maybe? That’ll show em. Stupid n*****s I mean f*****s.
    We’ve heard this before... can’t quite place my finger on it...
