Fortunately our country's laws and regulations aren't restricted to the moral code of Bible thumpers.

My stance on abortion has nothing to do with the Bible.

It was so silly that to said abortion is unprofessional and their first thought was "you must know every single verse of the Bible"

Vindris is pretty pro-religion in general and I'm pretty sure he's said Christians are one of the most oppressed groups in the US or something equally dumb, so it's not entirely silly for them to assume so.

Most of what I've heard is just boring. The singers usually sound too whiny, and the music itself doesn't really do much for me. I'd rather just listen to older pop punk, hardcore punk or post-punk.

Everybody is entitled to be respected. It's common courtesy. Respect is given until a person behaves in a way where they are no longer deserving of that respect.

Instead of demanding others respect you, ask yourself what have YOU done to be respected?

I'm not going to respect you because you feel you are entitled to it. In fact, demanding respect when you have done nothing to earn it will make me respect you even less.

Take some responsibility instead of being a victim.

Maybe one day you will grow out of this juvenile mentality. Nobody should have to do anything to prove they deserve to be treated with some decency. Saying that everybody deserves a basic modicum of respect isn't "demanding" it. I'm certainly not demanding your respect. In fact, I don't want it because your respect is worth less than dog shit to me. I certainly don't respect you. Also, how am I being a victim?

No duh the opinion of two trans people doesn't represent the opinion of the entire group of people, but the fact is there. Transgenders DO think like that.

A general statement was made, and I responded with a generalization that proved it to be false. In order to get out of responsibility for answering for this, you resort to the "Not All" card.

Which is why I said "most" and not "all" in my original post. Of course there will be transgenders that think like that.

The majority of transgender people are reasonable and want to be treated like the average person should be treated: with respect.

Respect is earned, you are not entitled to be respected.

Everybody is entitled to be respected. It's common courtesy. Respect is given until a person behaves in a way where they are no longer deserving of that respect.

They don't demand special treatment or demand that you be attracted to them.

Really?

They just don't want to be treated like some 5 year old living out a fantasy. That's so insulting. The people that feel the need to mention that stuff don't really seem to get it.

I never said you need a message to write music. I said, quite literally, don't say anything if you have nothing to say. Which is to say, if what you have to say is stupid bullshit then that is a detriment to the song. So don't use words. Don't use lyrics.

Lyrics are usually the last thing I'll pay attention to, especially when it comes to metal. Not just death metal, but metal in general. I don't think the music would be nearly as good without a singer, so I don't really consider dumb lyrics to be a detriment to the song.

I just don't understand why you quickly point out that every other conqueror and explorer did awful things, but when asked specifically about Columbus, the most you can say is "yes, he probably did some of those things. It seems like you're reluctant to criticize him in any way. It looks like the most you can say is that he wasn't a very good governor. Do you believe that he was ultimately a good person?

How come we can't judge him by our current standards?

Another thing I don't understand is why would you bring up Teddy Roosevelt? Of all people, why him? How did he glorify killing other men? How does it make sense to bring up Roosevelt's actions compared to what Columbus did?

We honor people who have committed crimes much worse than Columbus. The Founding Fathers, instituted and affirmed a system of slavery relegating millions of people to slavery for another hundred years, even at a time where there was significant debate about slavery. Yet Columbus shouldn't be honored because he was possibly a bit tyrannical? I don't see why that should take away from his accomplishments.

It's this that really gets me. Do you really not believe Columbus committed any of these horrible acts? What do you think he did, if you can believe he did any of them? And please don't mention things other people did, because I'm not talking about them.

Columbus rapes, pillages, murders, and enslaves every indigenous person he can get his hands on. It got so bad that they were killing themselves just so they wouldn't have to suffer under his rule.

"So he was imperfect. Is he supposed to be like Martin Luther King? We're honoring his accomplishments, not him. Besides, disease killed most of them anyway, and he wasn't the only one committing atrocities. They all were."

I don't care whether Columbus Day is renamed or removed or what, but defending him this much seems pretty silly. Does it physically pain you guys to admit he was an awful person, even going by the standards of his era?

It's not nearly as bad as The Birth of a Nation, but I sat through that just fine (as well as a person could through a 3 hour silent movie that is offensively racist).

I just don't agree with censoring art, regardless of how controversial the subject is and the attitudes of the people involved.

http://www.nydailynews.com/newswires/entertainment/28-75-charge-visit-elvis-grave-vigil-upsets-fans-article-1.3414535

For nearly four decades, fans of the late singer Elvis Presley have made a solemn procession past his grave at his Graceland mansion during the annual candlelight vigil commemorating his death, without paying a penny.

This year, on the 40th anniversary of the rock 'n' roll icon's death, it cost them $28.75.

Many fans were not happy.

Visitors attending the vigil that began Tuesday night and runs into Wednesday had to have an Elvis Week Property Pass wristband to walk up the long driveway and past the graves where Presley and relatives are buried, Graceland told the Associated Press in a written statement. The $28.75 wristband also provided access to a new $45 million entertainment complex at the Memphis tourist attraction.

The announcement surprised fans who didn't know about the charge when they made plans to come to Elvis Week. Some reacted with angry messages on social media, saying they won't attend another vigil.

Longtime fan Fred Schwarz of Springfield, Illinois, said Tuesday that he and his wife have been to several vigils and have enjoyed them. But not this year. He says fans should be insulted at the new charge.

"I looked forward to going down there this year, and they come up with all this," Schwarz said. "I don't want to even go to Memphis anymore. The people running that are not Elvis fans. They are in business. Corporations, they want the bottom line."

Cheryl Skogen, of Los Angeles, was third in line waiting on Tuesday morning for the vigil later that evening.

"I don't think Elvis would like it if he knew the fans were charged to go up and see," she said.

Some fans didn't have a problem with the charge. Joe Makowski, who saw Presley more than 80 times in concert and came to Graceland after Presley died in 1977, said it's a good idea because of the cost of security. He also said these types of charges are seen at other tourist attractions.

"It goes along with the territory of the popularity of Elvis," said Makowski, of St. Petersburg, Florida. "There's a price for that as well, to accommodate all the people."

News of the vigil charge also upset Anthony Stuchbury, of Bolton, England, who has been to Graceland more than two dozen times but did not come this year.

"I understand they are a business, and there's absolutely nothing wrong with them making money," Stuchbury said. "But the current price-gouging situation has created so much friction, it's even dividing fans."

Sure. Those people doing the Nazi salute, carrying Nazi flags, shouting "Heil Hitler" and "Blood and Soil"
were just doing it for fun. The left is just crying wolf like they always do and making a big deal out of nothing.
