Title: Anti-Mormon Bigotry and Sliming Is A-OK in CA
Post by: roo_ster on November 04, 2008, 01:12:01 PM
Not a Mormon here.  Theologically, I have lots of problems with it.

But, I am not cool with sliming an entire sect as fascist "white shirts" the way these folks do in the following video:

That's pretty messed up.  What those two lovely ladies need is a nice home defense handgun.  Pop pop, home intruders dealt with.

I was going to get all argumentative about homo marriage, but never mind.

The point is, this commercial alleges that a religious group is doing some illegal crap that they simply aren't doing, and that no one can show they actually want to do.  If they put Muslims, Jews, or others in a commercial like that, the charges of bigotry and "hate" would come fast and furious from our friends on the left.

Wow, would it be alright to make a commercial showing people from the democratic party disarming people right before they got carjacked?


...actually, thats not a half bad idea.

Anti-Mormon bigotry has been socially acceptable since... well since there were Mormons to be bigoted against. It's no different really for any socially-conservative Christian group either as far as the Lefties are concerned. Fistful's analysis is spot on.

Some code from the Leftists programming:

If (Religion.Major != "Islam" && Religion.Major != "Judaism") && (MoralOutlook == "Conservative")
{
     Bigotry.Activate();
}

It would be hysterical if the Lefties made this same commerical featuring Muslims.

I'd make popcorn.

You guys need to stop writing in code and math terminology. Anything more than the simplest algebra and ignorant proles like me and most of the lurkers have a hard time understanding what you mean.

Bah. I've been writing code all day and that's the mode my brain was in, dernit! =) It just restated what everyone has already said.

I actually thought the code was a pretty good joke. As we all know Lefty/Moonbats are not logical in the extreme. :D

bigotry is fine, as long as you're a liberal.
