Goalie Posted April 25, 2016 Report Share Posted April 25, 2016 (edited) I know gay people and lol trust me when I say this.... to all the macho men out there.... they don't want in your pants lol I also don't consider Trans people to be gay. They are just trying to figure out who they are really. So many daily struggles Edited April 25, 2016 by Goalie The Unknown Poster 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jpan85 Posted April 25, 2016 Report Share Posted April 25, 2016 I can't wait till these type of issue are no big deal anymore. Who cares really I have one purpose when I go to the washroom is do my business and get out as quick as possible. Really do not care who is in there. Its 2016 folks. johnzo, The Unknown Poster, Goalie and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Unknown Poster Posted April 25, 2016 Report Share Posted April 25, 2016 When I was 19/20 I worked for a popular nightclub in Winnipeg and on Monday's they had "alternative night" which had a large gay clientele. Most of the bouncers didnt want to work it but I was new and I wanted to work. I recall being hit on or complimented many times by guys (in a similar way I was hit on or complimented by women) and couple of my co workers would get physically agitated and ask me why I didnt punch the guy out etc. And I remember saying why would i? it's a compliment. This was a long time ago mind you but I always thought it odd that the guys who professed such outward masculinity were seemingly so concerned about being turned to the gay side.

I have no intention in weighing in on whether you are or aren't homophobic, but this is the worst defense against it. I appreciate that sweep the leg as I'm not. Truly I'm not. I may have not used the best words to describe my thoughts on the post in question but when I say I'm not homophobic it's true. I just don't agree with transgender public washrooms. It's going to take a lot of convincing to change my mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't say anything hateful about transgender individuals or transgender washrooms other than I don't agree with them.

If you don't want to, so be it but then its sort of odd to argue the point without being able to say why. There are a couple of links in this thread you should read. Perhaps you're not as opposed as you think. Perhaps you might change your mind after careful consideration. I used to be a steadfast opposer of pot. Never done it. But I watched a couple of documentaries, read some things, listened to some opinions and changed my mind about the use and legality. Minds can change if they're open.

iso_55 Posted April 25, 2016 Report Share Posted April 25, 2016 All due respect TUP, I don't owe you any more explanations. It's what I believe. My opinion alone isn't going to change things. It's what I believe so let's leave it at that as we have discussed this quite a bit. I get it that you don't agree but that's as far as I'll go discussing this.

The Unknown Poster Posted April 27, 2016 Report Share Posted April 27, 2016 So Trump has another big day and is the presumptive republican nominee. Seems to be mellowing a bit to...at least slightly.

He's already played the "woman card" saying if Hillary Clinton was a man she'd only get 5% of the vote. It may be interesting to see how he behaves should he go head-to-head with Clinton. He has publicly supported her in the past. His daughter Ivanka and Chelsea Clinton are very good friends. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Unknown Poster Posted April 28, 2016 Report Share Posted April 28, 2016 Yeah that Chelsea/Ivanka relationship must be tough. Trump is stupid to play the woman card. It wouldn't surprise me if he chooses a female running mate. But that would be a mistake. McCain made the same mistake and it came across as pandering.

They know it's over but they are positioning themselves as the guys who tried to save the country and the party. Announcing a running mate, a woman no less who was picked on by Trump is all about four years from now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Unknown Poster Posted May 4, 2016 Report Share Posted May 4, 2016 (CNN)Ted Cruz bowed out of the Republican presidential race Tuesday following a crushing loss to Donald Trump in Indiana, clearing the path for the real estate mogul to clinch the GOP nomination.

The Unknown Poster Posted May 4, 2016 Report Share Posted May 4, 2016 Kasich dropping out too. So there you have it. Trump is the Republican nominee. Amazing times we live in. Now...who will be his running mate? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jpan85 Posted May 4, 2016 Report Share Posted May 4, 2016 Chris Christie is my guess. He has be trotting him him out a lot the past few weeks. Out side chance Marco Rubio. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jacquie Posted May 5, 2016 Report Share Posted May 5, 2016 (edited) This is so scary. Before Cruz dropped out Trump was actually using a report from the National Enquirer that claimed Cruz's father had been an associate of Lee Harvey Oswald. What a nut case. Edited May 5, 2016 by Jacquie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Unknown Poster Posted May 5, 2016 Report Share Posted May 5, 2016 It was stupid of Trump to run off half cocked about the Cruz/Oswald thing but the allegation is somewhat supported by a couple of experts. They dont say with certainty that it's Cruz' rather in the photo and didnt use face recognition software because the images are too grainy. They determined there was no photo manipulation and then compared by eye. One of the experts has asked Cruz to release more images of his father from that period so they can be sure. So it's not like he made up a story like Cruz' brother is bigfoot or Hilary Clinton is a reptile. There is *some* basis for the discussion but it's really irresponsible to do it and, in my opinion, says more about Trump's fitness for making decisions than it does about Cruz. But hey, if Trump is that interested, perhaps he can promise to release all classified documents pertaining to the JFK assassination should he be elected President.

I agree Trump likely doesnt win but the idea he has zero chance is the same thing they said when he announced he was running, that he had zero chance to be the nominee. Dont count him out. The Republican Party needs to be rebuilt. They let the far right get too much power. When Ted Cruz is the supposed voice of reason, the party is in trouble. Big trouble. I'd rather see the right wing nuts form their own party so the forces of moderation in the party at large dont lend any sort of credence to the nonsense from that side.
