Guess if that argument works for gbaji, it'll work for just about anyone.

2. Ladies can get artificially inseminated whether they are het or lesbian.


Correct, but irrelevant. She is choosing to inseminate herself in a manner which ensures that there is no responsible biological partner involved. She chooses to take that responsibility on herself. She has no expectation of parental support by said partner and thus has no need of the state stepping in and creating a legal status which ensures that said support will happen without requiring her to spend the time/money pressing the issue in the courts.

I don't claim to know the court system, but I think a man has a case to void any child liability if his wife decided to artificially inseminate herself without any agreement

Traditionally, the courts are overwhelmingly in favor of putting two people on the hook for supporting a child if its at all possible. The man might "have a case" in this event but I'd give him equal odds of losing it if not greater.


I can see that. If she got in debt without him knowing, he will be more than likely liable, but if she cheated and gotten pregnant, probably not. So, this case is probably somewhere in the middle.

In any case, even if the husband is forced to raise the child, he is still irrelevant in the creation of the child and him raising it may very well vary from state to state.

I watched this and remembered at some point Alma argued that gay rights & civil rights arguments weren't similar.



After he kindly goes & fucks himself, feel free to carry on.

So I bothered to watch that entire video, and I think out of the two of us Alma, I might have been the only one.

High points:
People who are against gay marriage are like pedophiles, neither of them are directly hurting anybody.
New York will suffer from overpopulation due to gays moving there.
People who are afraid of thunder and lightening are abnormal, because normal people are not afraid of nature.
Because of gay marriage, there will be more tsunamis and the sun gonna take you out.

I propose this thread gets wrapped inside a capsule and shot up into space. When it reaches 28miles Kao, with one of his many remote control devices, will blow up the capsule. Then when all the letters of all the words start dropping through the atmosphere and reach the speed of sound - we'll hear Alma's voice on the wind.

So do I, you cowardly ******! Much like the abolishment of slavery & the civil rights movement (which in turn spawned the gay rights movement) lead to legalized miscegenation, the abolishment of homosexual persecution & discrimination has lead to the (eventually) gay marriage movement.

Religion isn't an excuse to be a ****, if you don't believe me rewatch the video. Freedom of religion is also freedom from religion, for those of us who aren't ignorant douches.

#588Almalieque, Posted: Oct 22 2012 at 3:18 PM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) If you took that as the high point of the video, then you fail at comprehension. Especially given the text of this conversation. The "high point" is that there is a difference between black civil rights and homosexual rights.

I see how you conveniently left out the preface "Now, I'm not going to say that there weren't any isolated incidents where maybe some gays were attacked, jumped beat down or whatever.but when you compare that to what the so called blacks had to endure..."

I probably should have included it, because it's funnier that way. He tries to make the point that homosexuals haven't experienced the oppression black have, then realizes how little he knows about homosexual oppression and tries to marginalize any counter examples, then completely forgets why he bothered to marginalize those incidents and goes on to state how he can't think of a single example of a homosexual being lynched, beaten, or denied a job because of their sexuality. To be fair, he probably can't.
Almalieque wrote:
Now I'll admit, he went on a tangent, but my point was in the first 6 mins, you know, the topic of this conversation.

Your point was that gays haven't been lynched, beaten, or denied career opportunities due to their sexuality, except that they have but those incidents don't count? How all the rights they want, they already have, but don't?

This is the guy you think best articulates your position?

Hey, maybe a couple more gay kids tortured and tied to fence posts, left to die and they'll be worth counting, huh? God, they can only dream of how glorious that day will be...

Unintentional funny is funny

I can't believe that you are equating someone with red hair to someone who is homosexual. Because that shows that you don't believe homosexuality is a choice, but a way you are born.

Good on ya, Alma!

I was referring to natural red heads of course. Even if they dye their hair, they are still red heads.


I was not in any denigrating the plight of the ginger, merely pointing out that, you know, a homosexual can marry someone of the opposite sex and still be a homosexual. Just like if someone who is black marries someone who is white is still black. See, we agree. None of these people has any control over that particular trait that we are focusing on, was my point. And the fact that you had become a little more enlightened by pointing this out in your previous post, that was also part of my point.

You really aren't very good at coherent arguments or reading comprehension, are you?

Requiring slavery as a pre-condition is taking an extremely narrow view of civil rights in the United States. Apparently you've decided that "civil rights" belongs strictly to African Americans. Completely erroneous but there's sense in debating it if that's your stance.

Actually, he was pointing out the fact that the struggle that homosexuals suffer from are no different than every other group have suffered from. Fat people, skinny people, nerds, geeks, goths, whores, short people, handicap, red heads, immigrants, foreigners. etc. have all been beaten up, attacked and physically and emotionally harmed for simply those traits described.

And we have laws protecting them. Not every state protects employees from termination due to sexual orientation. There is also a difference between individual acts of hate and institutionalized persecution. Some putz on the street calling you a ****** and a state prohibiting you from adopting a child due to your sexual orientation are worlds apart.

Same applies to this scenario. If you are going to compare civil struggles, you factor out the things that are common in all civil right movement, such as hate, fear, mistreatment and discrimination.

How convenient for an argument that the two movements are entirely incomparable if you disregard everything similar about them.
