The fellow who started this thread also posted it on the rec.autos.vw
newsgroup, to which I subscribe because my wife drives a New Beetle. He (or she) posted it at the same time it was posted on this newsgroup, and there have been no replies. I wonder why? Are Ford owners more politically opinionated than Volkswagen drivers? I remember all the hippies who used to (some still do) drive VW microbuses. They had some interesting politics, which they could eloquently describe when they weren't high. Ah, those were the days.... "Daniel J.

A lot of voters seem to hold the opposite view. I'm quite sure. However, most don't like activists on either end. |

That's up to you. I can write derisive hatred very well. I choose not to, because I don't think it's deserved, warranted, or appropriate. I will never understand it, but I know it's not a question of some "vile lifestyle choice". Believe me, the gay friends I've had all said "it would have been much easier to grow up, and know you were straight". Want to throw an insult at me? Well, I grew up (ironic term) in a more heterogeneous culture than a lot of people. I knew people from many different walks of life, and had friends from many of them. Derision of gays is like derision of blacks. I don't believe in either one. Anyone who believes otherwise, why, they're just plain IGNURNT, in my estimation. Be derisive if you will; it's not up to me... I don't really care. Getting in the way of that is not something I have time for. |

Maybe it's because you're making simplistic, broad-brushed attributions
based on half-assed conjecture instead of anything substantial. Or maybe you're right, those who drive "peopleskars" are just more erudite, intelligent, and naturally more tolerant of humanity. Those "people", by the way, didn't include gays. Or blacks, Jews, gypsys, etc. etc. They were to be gassed, burned or shot. Those "people" included nazis, their subjects, and their sympathizers, only. So what's your point again? You smoked too much pot back in the day to make any sense now?

An individual, seeking to understand why someone is gay, asked a gay person: "Why are you gay?" The gay person looked him straight in the eye and asked: "Why are you straight?" |
