Re: Policing and Pride Communities

Returning to your top-level post,

I have no f*ckin' clue what the future looks like for us...

I wholeheartedly agree with that.

I can only posit that the future to acceptance will follow the same path it has for so many other minorities

MLK didn't shy away from recognizing the reality of black crime rates, and he didn't point the finger only at racism and poverty.

In backing off from a divergent discussion, I'll make a few notes.

If we could measure such things on gauges, you would be pinned far to the right on two of them.

You threaten to break the gauge on political correctness zealotry -- I see now that radical child liberation is just one example.

And you threaten the gauge of political cluelessness.

Pretty high too on typing speed, scattershot posts, and interpreting all within your own gauge-straining framework, settled long ago. Full of facts, low on wisdom.

Now and then issues come up where we do engage in productive debate, and I guess we should focus on those when they arise.
