hootsbox brings a different point of view, one that I definitely, whole-heartedly disagree with in this case, but I don't think he is a psycho and I'm not sure what "name-calling" brings to the conversation. He's been on Hubski for a long time and has been the source of some great debates and conversation over the years.

Do I think he's way off on this one? Yes, but I appreciate that he's willing to have a conversation about his beliefs, however out of line with mine they may be.

I initially wrote "watch the name calling, dipshit," then realized the futility of my words and deleted them. Yours is nicer than mine. We don't always have a diversity of opinions here, so it's annoying to see them stifled when presented.

My apologies for shitposting. I have a few LGBT friends whose stories came immediately to mind upon reading that post. I reacted instead of mindfully choosing a correct course of action.
