when it comes to their behavior since October. Granted, some were TS'ed, but what the hell.
Samples follow:
But here was a late poster who thought Homosexuality is a choice.
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_topic&forum=132&topic_id=3628257#3629015Here's another one, it WAS deleted, but the post itself said "I have nothing against Homos, but..."
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_topic&forum=132&topic_id=3628257#3629769Here's another that could have been posted by a simple disruptor, but compared Homosexuality to Alcoholism
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_topic&forum=132&topic_id=3634480#3634948Here's a guy who is mocking LGBT people's feelings towards McClurkin.
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_topic&forum=132&topic_id=3634875Oh, and here is a VERY interesting post, as far as I can tell, this poster basically said they believe homosexuality is a sin, but will never admit it on DU, for fear of being banned.
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=132&topic_id=3628257&mesg_id=3628975Here's a poster, who, in a fit of total insensitivity, calls the whole McClurkin fiasco, "that gay thing".
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_topic&forum=132&topic_id=3966281#3966425Here's one that claimed all "the gays" are voting for Hillary.
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_topic&forum=132&topic_id=3652664#3653448Same poster, said that if he were Obama, he'd tell "the gays" to go to hell.
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_topic&forum=132&topic_id=3659741#3659811Same poster, AGAIN! This time rejoicing that the GLBT protestors didn't disrupt the applause from McClurkin's appearance at the tour. In fairness, this is probably before he knew the content of McClurkin's speech at the end of the tour.
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_topic&forum=132&topic_id=3656474Here's a different poster who calls those who are against McClurkin headlining this event "left wing exclusionists"! Very nice.
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_topic&forum=132&topic_id=3642714Then there is this poster, who was big enough to try to reach an "understanding" with GLBT folks.
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_topic&forum=132&topic_id=3635367Then turns around and uses a new catchphrase when talking to GLBT folks: "snaps for drama"
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_topic&forum=132&topic_id=3650989#3653719This poster also called the fiasco a case of "ruffled feathers":
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_topic&forum=132&topic_id=3653335#3654317Yet another, "snaps for drama" post:
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_topic&forum=132&topic_id=3658191#3659348Then this poster had the audacity of complaining about being called a bigot!
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_topic&forum=132&topic_id=3658191#3659031And then, last, but not least, a "I feel like spitting in some faces" post from this gracious poster.
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_topic&forum=132&topic_id=3653335#3653806Here's a beauty, a poster who thinks "former homosexuals" do exist, how quaint!
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_topic&forum=132&topic_id=3645866#3646088Oh, and this poster takes the cake, claiming not only that Obama isn't doing anything wrong, but that McClurkin isn't homophobic! I would be amused, if I wasn't so appalled.
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_topic&forum=132&topic_id=3635072#3635188Oh, on last thing, here is the beginning of an exchange with yet another poster, oddly enough, about Christianity and Homophobia, I found it odd because I was defending Christianity, and denouncing generalizations against it, but the poster in question was a Christian, while I'm not. I implore everyone to read this poster's posts, and my responses, to get the full context. Its a real :wtf: thing.
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=132x3628257#3629007Some of these posters, as I said, may have been disruptors, but quite a few are long time posters who are still, tragically, members of this board. Note, this is but a small sampling of what I was able to dig up, if you want more examples, please, peruse the threads I linked to, or search for some more. I may find more posts myself, if I have the time and inclination. Most of the atrocious posts, false comparisons, etc. have, of course, been deleted, these are just the posts that survived.
