What is wrong with gay marriage?
[QUOTE=mbutler2;28120812]Well then that is what I'm getting from liberals "Gay Marriage, people should have total free speech, and privacy from the government in times of danger."[/QUOTE]
Except for the total free speech thing (fire in a crowded theater, etc.) that sounds fine. You obviously don't have the concept of reasonable suspicion down.
Would you mind the cops breaking down your door and searching through all of your things because of the random chance you might be a terrorist, even though there's absolutely zero evidence against you?
Prismatex thread pause mode has been evoked jeeeze
now he'll ignore my post
He's already advocating higher security. He's already calling for the suppression of rights.

I want to expose him as a homophobe so we can wrap this up early and go home
[QUOTE=imasillypiggy;28120844]Thats what I should be saying to you. I mean at least my fear that resources are being used inproperly is better then thinking some guy will blow you up any second. I mean really I don't like cops knowing what Im talking about. I could be talking about my porn fetishes I don't know but I do know that someone could be using tax money better.[/QUOTE]
Why would that bother you that an officer knows your porn fetishes? are you afraid he might tell all your friends and all the girls at school? Because that is not going to happen.
[QUOTE=CabooseRvB;28120867]They're taking away your ability to decide. Your ideal government decides what is right and what is wrong. People are willing to simply set aside their beliefs and obey whatever the government says in exchange for having their lives?[/QUOTE]
How can you not decide? What is it that makes it impossible to live your life? If terrorists start to attack America, you probably won't have a life to live anymore. (that is of course extreme scenario.)

I know they don't do that. They don't tear my stuff up. they listen in on conversations that's it. same thing happens if they come in my house and look around. Nothing was lost except their time.

[QUOTE=mbutler2;28121101]Why would that bother you that an officer knows your porn fetishes? are you afraid he might tell all your friends and all the girls at school? Because that is not going to happen.
How can you not decide? What is it that makes it impossible to live your life?
Only in the time of danger, it feels like I'm repeating myself.[/QUOTE]
How can you decide what is deemed 'OK' by the government and what is deemed 'Treasonous'? The government would already set up decrees on what to do and what not to do for the sake of security. You're not deciding, the government is doing it for you, hence, bye bye freedoms and liberties. They can easily narrow the things you are free to do and claim everything else is considered treasonous to the state.
What qualifies for 'time of danger'? War on Terrorism is not going to be won like a conventional war. I feel like repeating myself.
[QUOTE=HumanAbyss;28120800]Yeah, i get what an analogy is. You apparently didn't get that's it's [b]a fucking abysmal analogy[/b].[/QUOTE]
I don't care how bad it is, just as long as you get it.
[QUOTE=mbutler2;28121101]Why would that bother you that an officer knows your porn fetishes? are you afraid he might tell all your friends and all the girls at school? Because that is not going to happen.
[/QUOTE]Because I don't see how my fetishes would be relevant to national security.
Please, do tell all of yours.
You see, most conservatives oft want less government interference, and yet here you are, blabbing on and on about wanting a totalitarian government.
I don't care if it's vital to security, that's why officers get warrants to search places. We don't need a repeat of writs of assistance, now do we?

Using resources to ensure I'm safe doesn't seem like a waste to me. and 2nd I don't really care if cops know about my porn fetishes. I will probably not talk to them or they won't remember me, and if they do I'm sure they won't bring it up when they pull me over.

time of danger, a time in which the public is in danger. I would rather take too many precautions than too few.

It is when you could spend it stopping things that really do kill people. Do you understand how low the death rate to terrorism is? you have a much higher chance chocking on peanuts then you would getting blown up. The money spent could be used much better.

So you're a homophobic bitch who can't deal with the fact that the government isn't dictating morals cross country?

See post 217 line 3[/QUOTE]All right, you don't want to take too many precautions.
Here's what we do, we censor letters, kill or imprison those who pose a threat to security, and act like it's not happening so normal citizens won't think any different.
Oh wait, that's how Stalin ruled.
[QUOTE=Jad Hinto;28121177]Because I don't see how my fetishes would be relevant to national security.

Exactly tell that to the other guys
[QUOTE=Jad Hinto;28121177]Please, do tell all of yours.

Why would I?
Oh, and your analogy was terrible and you have to accept that. Once you do, you'll realize, you're fucking wrong.

So you would accept 1,000,000 wrongful detainments as a result of over-precautions in exchange for the safety for the remainder of the population and jailing just 5 individuals that are actually capable of attacking the public in any form in the span of 8 years?
And when is the general public in danger?
[QUOTE=mbutler2;28121248]Exactly tell that to the other guys
Why would I?[/QUOTE]I meant that as in, why in the hell would the government need to know it.
And if you're so open to telling the government everything, I'm sure you could share? Or are you hiding something?
[QUOTE=mbutler2;28121175]I don't care how bad it is, just as long as you get it.[/QUOTE]
so basically, you're admitting that your idea is flawed. If the analogy is shit, then, the fact you expect a government to dictate factual morals across the board as if morals weren't subjective as fuck.

Did I say that is what I wanted to do? I don't recall I did.
oh my god i remember you know
you're disgusting
i mean i read disturbing books don't get me wrong but nothing disturbed me more than when you posted the story of that young boy and proclaimed his suicide was his own fault
mbutler2, i usually am pretty okay with whoever wants to post their crazy opinion, but in this case i can honestly say that i would prefer you didn't post here anymore
i had a friend who committed suicide because of the callous and amazingly awful behavior from individuals like yourself, you should be ashamed of yourself
hmmph
(but then i saw bjork rub eggs on her face and now i feel better)
mbutler2 why are all fascists homophobes?
Legitimate question, I don't see how gay people are a threat to a fascist regime.

Like I said that is not on topic of what we are discussing here if the thread name had something to do with gay marriage than I would be more than happy to talk. Please let us not get off on a tangent.
