Now I understand.

What? I'm pretty sure that people across the United States agree that being a racist homophobe is a bad idea.

*eyeroll*

I'm actually not, I'm moderate. Apparently respecting other people's lifestyles makes me a "tree hugger"?

Why are you so obsessed with stereotypes? Really, you have used derogatory terms for homosexuals in this post too many times for me to count.

I've never referred to all black people as thugs, nor all black culture is ghetto. Lets clear this up really quick, since some of you don't seem to know what certain terms mean...

SYLLABICATION: rac·ism
PRONUNCIATION: rszm
NOUN: 1. The belief that race accounts for differences in human character or ability and that a particular race is superior to others. 2. Discrimination or prejudice based on race.

SYLLABICATION: ho·mo·pho·bi·a
PRONUNCIATION: hm-fb-
NOUN: 1. Fear of or contempt for lesbians and gay men. 2. Behavior based on such a feeling.

Never have I mentioned anything about white people being superior to people of color. Nor have I discriminated based on race. I discriminate based on how people present themselves. It just so happens that there is a lot about popular black culture I dislike. It doesnt matter what color the person's face is.

Never have I said I had contempt or fear of gay people. I have not acted in such a way to reflect some contempt or fear either. Do I condone their lifestyle? No. I'm not sure if you're aware of this, but you can disagree with something, and still not hate that person or thing.

For people who proclaim to be above things like racism and homophobia, I would expect to see some restraint when carelessly throwing out such accusations.
