And the biggest hate monger in America award goes to...

[Nell2ThaIzzay]

...radio talk show host Michael Savage.

I just recently moved to the south this past year, specifically Tennesee. On my drive home from work, I normally listen to my mp3 player, but sometimes I don't really want to listen to music, and I turn on talk radio.

Well out here, we're stuck with Michael Savage.

Not only have I heard him make ridiculous, offensive, insulting accusations towards us Liberals, misinforming his ignorant masses to a dangerous level with sensationalism and right wing propaganda, but I've heard him make way too many bigoted remarks towards those who feel different than him, most notably as of late (with California's unfortunate passing of Prop 8) the homosexual community, making baseless accusations that homosexuals are out to destroy America and the American family value system by wanting to marry and adopt.

I'm ashamed that he hails from my home state of California, from my home region of the San Francisco Bay Area.

But more than that, while I am all for freedom of expression and would never support censorship of any kind, I worry for the people that he brainwashes with his propaganda. Unlike shock entertainment like Howard Stern, South Park, Grand Theft Auto, rap music, or what have you, Savage's expression of political beliefs can cause ACTUAL harm when people actually buy into and believe his non sense, hatred, and bigotry.

And that's my rant for the evening.

My grandma listens to him.

That can't be good.

 

[The Squirrel]

I think he is great comedy.

There's your mistake right there. Talk radio is the devil.

You only say that cause the left wing fails at it.

 

[The Lizard]

No, I say that because it's repetitious, predictable, intelligence-insulting and calculated to raise your blood pressure on an otherwise pleasant drive home.

Plus, the left-wingers will always have NPR.

I can never find NPR.

But in my opinion, extreme left wingers get just as bad as extreme right wingers.

No argument here.

It's hard being a centrist moderate at this point, eh?

Agreed.

Michael Moore is a disgrace to my ideology.

 

[JLBats]

lol.

"I'm a centrist moderate!" is like the new black.

Centrist moderates just as extremist in their centrist moderation, yo

This guy does sound like a tosser.

But i sorta agree with him that homosexuals adopting kids is bang out of order. What are the two blokes going to say when the kid grows up? That it's normal? Well it isn't normal. And what about when the kid goes to school? He will be bullied to high heaven. It's selfish on the adoptees part imo. They are like "ohh lets adopt a kid, it will be so fun to have a child to raise!" Well what about the childs feelings?

There have been studies on homosexual couples raising children. Thus far, they've found no aversive effects. Take your bigotry somewhere else.

Is it really that much different from single parenting?
Should something be done about that?

I'm not being a bigot, i'm just stating how i'd feel about it. It's a 100% fact that the kid will be tormented every single day. Is that right? No of course not. But is it true? Yes of course it is. I just don't think it's fair that a child should be put through that.

It's completely different from single parenting. A single parent can explain to a child why the other half isn't there. Now how can two gay men explain to their child that "Oh you're not like other kids, you don't have a mother you just have two dads. Your special" Thats BS, it's not special, it's not normal IMO it's wrong. It's selfish on the two gay blokes part. I haven't got a problem with gay people, none atall. But i do have a problem when they wish to raise a child together, i think it's wrong.

Kids are very understanding lol

See, leave it until they reach 12 or 13 and then they should tell them in no uncertain terms, 'Yeah, your dads like the cock.'

Yea if i got to 13 or 14 or whatever and my Dad turned round and went "Oh by the way son, I'm a shirt lifter and your "uncle" is in fact your dad as well" I would head butt the bastard.

THE ULLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLTIMATE WARRIOR SAYS:

"Queering DOES NOT make the world work"

And was immediately booted out of 'The Young Republicans' - whatever that is.

'Son, remember all those times me and John from next door used to have all those wrestling matches in the bedroom...?'

Please cite 3 references, to provide proof for your "fact" that having homosexual parents will have the child bullied anymore than a child with one parent, or hetero parents, or someone raised by someone other than their parents, or being fat, or running slower than someone else, or being disabled, or being too tall, or too short, or eating loudly, or bedwetting.

I don't need proof, common sense says that would happen. Kids are cruel when they are young and if they found out that a fellow class mate has two gay dads as parents then they will no doubt rip the piss out of him.

No, you DO have to prove it. You said "fact", implying proof. The only thing being proven here is your opinion that people who's parents are the same sex will be bullied. Also, of note, you keep saying two men, two men. So it's perfectly okay for two women, I take it? I mean, that's good enough for porn, right?

Two men, two women, same thing.

Okay let's scrap the whole bullying thing for a sec. I personally think it is out of order to raise a child in that enviroment, for the child to be told that being homosexual marriage and family is as normal as a standard family. It isn't. I don't have a problem with homosexual people, as long as they don't try it on with me. I have a couple of gay friends, they are as safe as houses. But if they one day decided to get married and adopt a child I would be totally against it, for the childs sake.

Ahh, lesbian porn. There is nothing in this world that makes me feel so gay. After sitting and watching two girls play clap hands for five minutes, I've never wanted to see a penis so much in my life. I mean, seriously, if I'm watching porn, I want to see a girl get ******, NOT lie there and tickle another girl.

See. [/gay]
