    their having a single smoke bomb is either a statement of fact or else is a false statement. I don't see how that "defends the people" either way

    If he was clarifying they had one as opposed to many maybe.

    But he said "nothing more than a single..." that language is used to minimize and lessen the seriousness.

    If I wanted to minimize the acts of a drunk driver, I would say "he was noting more than single percent over the legal limit."

    While that might be what he tested, it wouldn't change the seriousness of his offense. The only reason I would use that verbiage would be to minimize and defend the person.

    Preach on brother! I can't scroll down any thread here without seeing him or @tinman posting nonsense. In the end I guess it's not that big of a deal, we'll all get old and crusty one day and have nothing better to do than raise hell on a Rockets forum about our political rights. I suppose if my balls shriveled up and I had nothing left in life but my intellect I'd be doing the same...

    Can we talk about how after 17 pages, only one post referred to the actual issue at hand (LGBT people being harassed)?

    I skipped the first ever pride parade where I live, and my first one since coming out because I was afraid of people like these. And I doubt I'm not the only one.

    Instead we're talking about...which side has bigger assholes lol. Although Im sure certain pockets of this board were out there "counter-protesting" this month.

    its going to be cis white women with money.

    they LOVE and have to be the victim in any situation. They also like to fake being liheral but usually date GOP men.

    Most love their status as being a little princess and any status quo will change that. But they also want to look liberal so theyll protest.

    Where the Left's divisons are going to shine is when a white woman kills a black trans woman in a bathroom. Youre going to see insane rioting from every side

    I'm surprised that white nationalists would target a Pride parade. I'm not surprised they hate gays, I am surprised they would make it a priority

    You don't get it because you don't want to.

    How would you like it if anybody used the same generalities about gay white men that you are doing about cis white women?

    What you just did here is just as bad as gay people being labeled as groomers and does nothing productive, it just causes further divides.

    We should all strive to judge each individual person on their own merits and stop labeling groups of people the same.

    I'm not a gay white men.

    But in my experience this is white women do. Yes the left eats their own. But I hate how straight cis women have co-opted all of LGBT culture as their fun hobby.

    They get to have fun for a day. I live with the stigma of being trans for a lifetime; especially I get **** up to death threats for existing.

    Most of those protesting women vote GOP anyway

    I base that on homosexuality not being something they are known to target. Hate crimes against gays are usually by people who specifically hate gays

    Have you seen white nationalists target the LGBT community?

    that's absolutely something they target! Fox News does as well as a lot of Catholic Baptist and Lutheran churches.

    Again I'd like to point out how everyone is offended about their political party and not that...a bunch of LGBT people would get killed

    Did you read the articles posted in this thread? There were more than one LGBTQ gatherings that were victimized.

    Appears to be pretty specifically targeted.

    IDK why it's such a stretch of belief for y'all that some people hate the LGBT.

    They came to fight LGBT parade membors or at the very least protest our right to exist.

    IDK why that upsets you so much that likely hate you as well. Why does LGBT stuff make you so upset?
