appropriate reaction, weirdos lol
[QUOTE=codemaster85;46676416]there's much weirder cons out there and its pretty unprofessional that they are laughing when its something that's as serious as people literally coughing up blood. Its like if a office was shot up and they found out the shooter was a furry and laughed at it because lmao furry. Its extremely unprofessional and fucked up.[/QUOTE]
Why are you so angry?
were you at the Con?
[QUOTE=codemaster85;46676341]More like its fucked that they are laughing at people getting internal chemical burns just because they think the convention was funny to laugh at.
Oh im sorry they are furries so its okay to laugh because they are so silly, [I]especially when the people involved had to be sent to the hospital for just trying to have fun with friends.[/I][/QUOTE]
found the furry
that moment of silence when it switches over to the video is fucking golden :v:
[QUOTE=Disgruntled;46676532]So this is a fantastic thread already. Chock full of shitposters and people who never left the early to mid '00s.[/QUOTE]
Oh for the love of....
Let's get a few things straight here;
1) Everybody's entitled to an opinion, as long as it isn't purposeful shitflinging against either side of the argument.
2) Nobody started playing the 'all furries are dogfuckers and weird' card.
3) Human nature overrides learned behaviors occasionally. I guarantee you that most people who don't know the fandom would probably laugh in disbelief that such a thing exists (note: I'm not against furries at all, I'm just pointing out what's likely to happen)
4) Don't read too much into what happened. Though, this applies to like every thread.
5) Both sides should admit that the reactions of the newscasters, while unprofessional, wasn't exactly done with intent to deliberately bash the fandom or say that they deserved it.
With my piece said, please do not let this thread devolve into another shitfling. Be objective and look at both sides of the coin carefully before you post anything.
I think most of this thread is peoples projection on why they laughed. I don't think they're being nearly as antagonistic as some people think. Rather it just looks silly when there's a bunch of people stood out in the cold wearing what looks like home-made sports mascot costumes :v:
Theres really no other way a normal well adjusted human being could respond

I think this is what I was trying to get at, though I worded it poorly. I know they weren't laughing at the poisoned people, just that it was unprofessional to have a fit like that DURING a segment about people getting poisoned.
I don't blame them for their reaction, but I think they should have excused themselves for a bit until they regained composure. Then again, Morning Joe is a shit show so I doubt anyone expects much better.

She handled that as professionally as she could.
She hid her face, clearly tried to contain her laughter, and even [I]ran away[/I] when she was unable to do that.

Yeah, she kind of did.
Wheres that picture of Michael Jackson eating popcorn with an expectant look on his face?

weren't you just bitching about people who get overly offended over trivial shit last night in that chris rock thread?
She literally cringed out of the building.

i'd probably turn as red as a tomato and quit my job if i had to do a report on furries on the news.
i love my weird furry stuff, but GOD, i'd DIE if i had to say ANYTHING about it in public.

I had to do something similar to this in my PSY202 class a few semesters ago, my teacher of course gave me the topic of "paraphilias"
God damn you Dr Parh, I'll never forgive you for making me talk about furfandom in front of 57 people.

look on the bright side, probably wasn't as awkward as all of those MLP powerpoint presentations floating around youtube.
That part where they cuddled in their furry suits to keep warm was cute.

how the fuck do they manage to survive when they're wearing them in the summer, though
[QUOTE=Rixxz2;46676949]how the fuck do they manage to survive when they're wearing them in the summer, though[/QUOTE]
they don't.
like, it's hard to suit for more than an hour or two in the winter, so suiting in the summer is death. you will die.
19 people from a furry convention sent to hospital after complaining of nausea, dizziness, and other medical problems.
Then afterwards, there was a gas attack.
Oh hey, third related thread of the week.
Well anyways it's obvious that this incident has reached the National level and even an international level of media attention since it occurred. Even The Onion wrote about it :v:
Imagine if the article said:
"19 people were injured in a chemical attack at Chicago's latest TrannyCon."
"Wait, what's a tranny?"
"DOHOHO they think they're women when they're men!"
*anchor runs off set laughing*
Facepunch comments:
"Can't blame them, it's basically a freakshow :v:"
X27 winners
"Nobody likes tranny fags :)"
X10 winners

I'd guess that's put on hold, on account of all the chlorine and whatnot.

And it's not like they wear the suits on a daily basis, mostly just to cons or parties or whatever

You're blaming people for saying shit that you made up.

isnt this forum kinda public?
I mean there are people here that know you/have met you IRL
[QUOTE=Timebomb575;46676364]I think they are laughing at the concept of furries as opposed to them being gassed
like seriously put yourself in the shoes of someone who doesnt know what a furry is, if you get told that there are people that get off to cartoon animals/want to fuck while wearing mascot suits, you're probably going to laugh pretty hard[/QUOTE]
i'm pretty sure she doesn't know [I]that[/I] about furries, i doubt any reporter would dare explain that while miked

did you [I]really[/I] just fucking compare trans people to furries???
[B]Note:[/B] Talking to the guys who are being absolute dicks in every thread regarding this
Why can't people just do the fuck they want as long as they're not hurting anyone? There was a time when homosexuality was treated the same way, and in some places it still is - same thing with transgenderism. Because you aren't one of them yourself and don't understand them doesn't mean you have the right to call them freaks or wish death upon them. It's disgusting.
Honestly. Not a furry myself but I see nothing wrong with doing something that you find fun, and it looks already that the majority of furries there have more friends than the guys shit-talking them on here.
I get that you all just want to fit in somewhere in life (although god knows why here), but surely this many people can't be disgusting. I saw some replies in the news thread for this that I could never imagine someone saying over something they don't like themselves. I'm bisexual myself and I only came out to my parents about a month ago after battling with depression for several years because of shit like this, in the end, it's just schoolyard bullying over someone being different.
/rantover
[b]Edit:[/b] How can you say it's a choice? people are born liking different things. If people can't be born with a mindset to become a furry/like furry things, how can people be born homosexual?
