Becuase I said the MLK quotes while thought envoking were more applicable to his time and the Black Civil Rights issues vs. (from my opinion) opression of the LGBT in Calgary.

I then brought up some posters comments on LGBT bullying in school and how this flag might make them feel something. I mused that I didn't witness any LGBT bullying in my days and wondered how much actually happened in Calgary schools - then commenting that we'd probably need a Calgary school counselor or teacher to get even a remotely unbiased view.

I know I'm often long winded, unclear, and confusing - but it seems like you totally ignored my two Calgary references and forgot that we're posting on a "Calgary"puck forum
