Say what???----doppy you underestimate me--what are the perjorative comments about gays that I made--please explain.I ask you to reconsider your accusations--I have been more than polite with you and respectd your views. So give me facts please.</font>
Sure, just reference any of the emotional and inflammatory messages directed at homosexual FT members posted today, particularly the ones where you pejoratively refer to homosexual FT members as the "lavender bund."
Considering you've posted several of these messages as part of your tear today, I think it should be more than clear.
Like I said before, one message, not a big deal. But then when the post numbers, in the same day, add up, it starts to look like malice.
I think you were using the whole "lavender bund" comment as a personal attack on FT members. It may have a reasonable use, but just like the "n" word when referring to African Americans is acceptable sometimes and pejorative others, I believe your use of the "lavender bund" was most certainly the latter.
Case in point about the personal attacks is just two posts above mine:
<font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size="2">Like everyone else he is fed up with the rants of the gay community demanding ... and ... whining</font>
<font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size="2">but then again you have Guava and Maple Leaf(who represents our flag badly)</font>
And three posts above:
<font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size="2">As for Guava/ML you should be ashamed of them being part of your community.</font>
And from the AC thread:
<font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size="2">Some of the crap that spews out here</font>
<font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size="2">I don't need a lecture particularly, from you ... And as for Guava------well I'll leave the "lavender bunds" crowd to others to deal with because they are totally out of control.</font>
<font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size="2">I'm open to editing this if everyone(except Maple leaf who has ulterior motives)</font>
I know Randy isn't particularly fond of getting involved in OMNI, and I respect that opinion, so I won't post any of the similarly charged parnel posts of the day from there. I think the posts in Randy's forum and the AC forum are sufficient to get my point across.
Like I said above, I didn't get involved in this thread until the tear parnel went on today in at least three fora. Disagreement is fine, several inflammatory and pejorative posts about certain individual and group FT members in one day is over the line, IMO.
