Lastpoet,
No, I did not feel that you were solely addressing me whith you last post. I was not the only person that made a direct comment to you. Howerver I felt like you didn't understand that we all had answered your question in the beginning and just in case "all" was inappropriate I added at least in my posts.
As for addressing the "other" examples you've provided, those examples were not part of the original post. Nowhere in your original post did you speak of things like "wetback", "spic", "jap", "jew 'em down", "sand nigger" etc.](please go back and review).
As for this thread becoming a shouting match and people "attacking" anothers opinion, I think that is far from what is happening. Everyone has come respectfully with their responses. By no means was anyone trying to make their opinion more important than the next mans in an attempt to "shut another down".
Maybe, in your opinion, a disscussion on the "morality" of homosexuality made you uncomfortable, but for others the thread was stimulating and enlightening. If you really want to stop homophobia, lets contiune this discussion. Maybe you could change someones heart on the matter. Ending the discussion because you don't like the direction it's going only perpetuates the problem.
I feel that if you want to adress homophobia, be prepared for the responses you will get. Know that inevitably we will all agree to dissagree.
Respectfully,
Serenity_24
