If you remove your bias it's an iconic moment and a bad ass photo. Replace Trump with someone you like and you're lying if you say you disagree.
"bad ass". That's all we need to know.

Bad ass? Have you seen the sheer unadulterated volume of cheeseburgers that man consumes? Even Elvis would hold up his hands and tell him to slow his roll....

If I were Joe Biden taking over after him I'd have the bathrooms in the White House and Airforce 1 cleaned with a flamethrower and a grenade.

The person you were at 12 is likely vastly different from the person you are today. So to not see any validity in the protection of children seems like you're purposefully being a bit blind to the big picture.
The overwhelming majority of them, yes.

A grade school level of education assuages virtually every panic you could possibly have.

Take puberty blockers. Limiting access to them until a person is 16, when puberty has already run its course, is objectively stupid and steeped in nothing but bigoted hogwash.

I would consider this child abuse and believe this topic should be age restricted until 18. Just like the XXX section, alcohol, cigarettes and other useless contributions to society.

The point of standing up to bigots is to let the people that they are targeting see that they are not alone. When hate is met with silence it makes the targets of the hate feel like those opinions are accepted by everyone.

I have personally heard from people targeted by these monsters that seeing that there are people on their side has been the difference that saved them from suicide. Using your voice to disagree with hate makes a big difference.

As for the person spewing the hate, I have no idea what their angle is. Being that it has all just been the same tired old cut and paste bigot talking points, I have my doubts they know either. That they cannot seem to cope with how people are seeing right through their transparent "think of the children, just asking questions" routine, also supports my theory that they are mindlessly repeating propaganda.

Sounds like something a child abuser that would deny children medical care would say.

Good thing this thread didn't get political, I'd have sworn it would have. Well done contributors.

Why would Biden need the bathroom? Doesn't he just #### his pants?

Think it was originally a thread to discuss the pride night game. Followed by endless bickering and name calling.

Like 71 pages of that.

At least it's just left vs right mud slinging instead of the homophobia that was running rampant here last season.

When your handle is Eb0la11 your opinions mean very little to anyone. Take off your Flames jersey and be a fan somewhere else.

Did it start that way? You’ve only ever used it to mock/dismiss the thread, the participants, and Pride night.

Unfortunately there’s still the homophobia. The Trump stuff is just extra seasoning.
