This isn't an answer. This is a proposal of me asking a different question. Key words "Instead" and "can".

Given the fact that he said "Ok, so that's actually my original response " contradicts his previous statement, "I've answered the "Marrying toasters/cats/kids" strawman enough times already. Go back and re-read my answers and pretend I'm saying them now." And that's ignoring the fact that I didn't mention a toasters/cats/kids strawman.

It was an answer; it was apparently an answer over your head though. Can't help you there.

That's a response, not an answer. Red isn't answer to how old you old. I asked you a very specific question and you responded with a suggestion.

You really can't be such a sore loser.... You initially implied that I didn't see any struggle as a civil rights unless there was slavery, which is evident that you didn't read my post. That's why you responded with "cats/toasters/kids", because you were referencing to a completely different argument. Now you're trying to pretend that you somehow switched arguments in between responses...Smiley: oyvey

I'm not sure if you think calling me a sore loser is supposed to make me change my answer or what but my current answer already addresses your question adequately.

I'm not sure if you think stating that your response was an answer is supposed to make me think that you answered my question, but the reality of you not answering the question remains.

No where in that statement did you answer my question, you proposed a different question. Do you not know what the word "instead" means? Let me help you out.

http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/instead?s=t wrote:

1. as a substitute or replacement; in the place or stead of someone or something: We ordered tea but were served coffee instead.

2.in preference; as a preferred or accepted alternative: The city has its pleasures, but she wished instead for the quiet of country life.


I call you a sore loser because that's what you are. Lately, when you get "in a corner", you say "eh", "oh well" or some other lame cop out. In all cases, you will spend time repeating yourself, then all of the sudden, you don't have the time to repeat yourself, even though you continue to do so.

Your comment of several times was in reference to toaster love as said in the same sentence. So by "toaster" you meant "aboriginals"? Interesting.....

Note: My posts are this long not for you, but for the other readers who don't know what's going on.

I'm not saying "oh well", I'm pointing out that I answered your question. And +1'ing as well now, I suppose. You can keep huffing and saying I didn't or you can find a new tact. Maybe try comprehension since the toaster remark wasn't in reply to your "Black civil rights" question.

Haha... this took like a million edits. Damned Swype keyboard and autocorrect.

"lately" vs "in all cases". One is absolute and one isn't. Yet another example of your comprehension failure. You're really not helping your case.

Ok, humor me more.. Explain to me how your response answers my question. If you were serious, which you aren't, then the only other logical explanation is that you misunderstood my question as you have demonstrated as such in your previous post.

It was a demonstration of how incredibly flawed your question's premise is. When you can rephrase your question so it's not nonsensical, you'll get a better answer.

By a "better answer" do you mean "an answer"? Your own statement implies that you didn't answer my question because it was worded wrong. When in reality, I worded my question to make a point that would become apparent if you actually answered the question.

So, when I said that there was no difference between Black civil rights and women's rights, the trails of tears, Japanese Americans during WWII, early European immigrants, etc/ in reference to civil rights, the fact that you inferred "slavery was a requirement in order to be called a civil rights" was at fault of me?Smiley: lol

Ok, let me rephrase it again..

If A = B and B = C, how does A not equal C? Please explain.

That doesn't explain how it doesn't match my question because I didn't define A,B or C. A could be "Native American", B could be "U.S aboriginals" and C could be "American Indian". In that scenario, A does equal B. It's your job to explain to me how it doesn't match my question.

Smiley: lol YET ANOTHER example of your poor comprehension. I didn't ask you to create an argument for me. I asked you to explain how my previous abbreviated question didn't match my original question. You claimed that my abbreviated question didn't match because A != B. That isn't on my behalf because you're the one making the accusation, unless you're down with making statements with no substance. If that's the case, then I was right all along.

How is black civil rights like homosexual civil rights?

Last century in most countries: Homosexuality was illegal. Not all known homosexuals were prosecuted and jailed, but the ones living freely on the streets did so without most rights. For example, people beating a homosexual to death, to hospital, to disfigurement or disability were not prosecuted, since the homosexual was seen to be fair game.

Homosexuality was grounds for instant dismissal from a job.
Homosexuals were automatically at high risk of being blackmailed, with their entire lives on the line. thus homosexuality was an automatic security risk. The homosexual was not protected by the law in cases of being blackmailed.
Homosexuality was grounds for refusal to rent or sell a property to.
Walking around, taking public transport, or going to a public place such as a restaurant, pub, theatre or cinema, as a known homosexual was illegal, since you should be in jail. As a suspected homosexual, it was just a very, very dangerous risk to your psychological and physical health.

I'm not sure about America, but these legal and cultural states of homosexuals were only very slowly dismantled over the last century in Britain and Australia. I believe the state of Tasmania only legalised homosexuality a decade or three ago.

#674Almalieque, Posted: Oct 26 2012 at 5:24 AM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) The comparison is US Black civil rights and US homosexual civil rights, not world wide. Every part of the world had some form of slavery, but not all slavery was the same in every country. In certain middle eastern countries, it is illegal for two people of the opposite sex to make contact in public, kiss, talk to, etc., unless it's your family. People of the same sex freely kiss each other as greetings and hold hands as they walk down the street. Those same actions would be deemed "homosexual" in other countries. So you can't make a fair comparison on struggles and civil rights from two or more different countries and/or cultures.

Once you set C equal to B then A can be reassigned to something else. At that point A won't equal C again unless you loop back over the preceding lines. Smiley: schooled

What? I'm learning. Smiley: grin

The comparison should be miscegenation laws vs SSM laws or black workplace discrimination vs gay workplace discrimination or gay partner inheritance rights vs women's inheritance rights.

Trying to broaden it to entire spheres invites disqualifying it via irrelevant differences. Talking about slavery or bus seats when discussing SSM is like saying the Boy Scouts sex abuse scandal doesn't compare to the Roman Catholic Church sex abuse scandal because, you know, Crusades. And transubstantiation. And the Gospels vs The Jungle Book. And neckerchiefs. And pocket knifes.
