[QUOTE=DestinyDstryr;47861442]Whatever happened to free speech?[/QUOTE] Free speech doesn't mean you're free from other people's speech
[QUOTE=Ragekipz;47861459]The difference is that flaming me is against the forum rules, but calling me something else, like Joe is not.[/QUOTE] Why does it matter if it's against the rules/law? Either way you're being a cuntbucket.
Not sure why everyone is blowing up over this tweet, he wasn't saying anything offensive. It more or just looks like he was apologizing for a earlier statement where he was still referring to "him/he/etc".
[QUOTE=Ragekipz;47861325]Her mother also stated that she calls her Bruce. Are you going to tell the same thing to her mother?[/QUOTE] why do you always come into these threads with these really terrible posts
[QUOTE=DestinyDstryr;47861442]Whatever happened to free speech?[/QUOTE] he's not being arrested. he's still free to say something stupid, which he is, and other people are just as free to call him stupid.
[QUOTE=Ragekipz;47861459]The difference is that flaming me is against the forum rules, but calling me something else, like Joe is not.[/QUOTE] If you were to specifically call a trans woman "Joe" or any other male name on the forums out of spite I'm sure that would get you banned.
[QUOTE=Limed00d;47861481]why do you always come into these threads with these really terrible posts[/QUOTE] Why do you care?
[QUOTE=DestinyDstryr;47861442]Whatever happened to free speech?[/QUOTE] Free speech is not a license to be an idiot or intolerant and not be called out for it
[QUOTE=DestinyDstryr;47861442]Whatever happened to free speech?[/QUOTE] He's free to say what he wants, just like people are free to disagree with him or reprimand him.
[QUOTE=Ragekipz;47861355]You can call people whatever you want, unless you're directing yourself to person of authority like a federal judge.[/QUOTE] Why does that matter in the slightest? Is there a trial going on or something?
[QUOTE=JohnFisher89;47861480]Not sure why everyone is blowing up over this tweet, he wasn't saying anything offensive. It more or just looks like he was apologizing for a earlier statement where he was still referring to "him/he/etc".[/QUOTE] [QUOTE]Shortly after deleting the above tweet, Bell sent a follow-up to assure people he wasn't insulting Caitlyn Jenner. Bell did, however, continue to refer to Caitlyn as "he" while speaking of Jenner in the present tense. I'm not dissing him! I just don't want to forget his legacy! He is the greatest athlete of all time! Chill out![/QUOTE] He still referred to her as him/he, he wasn't apologising, more like "sorry.. but I really don't like gays" kind of thing.
Wasn't he 600k in debt? rotfl
[QUOTE=Explosions;47861535]Why does that matter in the slightest? Is there a trial going on or something?[/QUOTE] Well you can, but insulting a federal judge can get you arrested.
[QUOTE=Ragekipz;47861546]Well you can, but insulting a federal judge can get you arrested.[/QUOTE] How is this relevant in any way? Stop talking about shit that doesn't have any relation to the article.
[QUOTE=Ragekipz;47861546]Well you can, but insulting a federal judge can get you arrested.[/QUOTE] You're all over the place dude. I'm not sure if it's a language barrier or what, but half your posts don't make sense.
ragekipz are you being deliberately stupid or do you genuinely think that you could go up to someone and call them by anything other than the name they want you to call them by and that you won't look like a complete idiot like, I don't get your argument. you're equating calling a trans person by the name they were given at birth and have since changed, to going up to someone and calling them Jack or Joe whose name blatantly isn't Jack or Joe. therefore you're being factually incorrect, and look like a moron. is your argument that "I can legally do this"? because congratulations, that's absolutely true. what's also true is that everyone around you would be absolutely right in calling you a complete idiot.
[QUOTE=Ragekipz;47861546]Well you can, but insulting a federal judge can get you arrested.[/QUOTE] see, this is what I'm talking about

People blow up about stuff like this way too much. Get a grip and realise not everyone in this world is going to pander to other peoples views regardless of whether they are right or wrong. Sick of seeing these witch hunts for people that dare say something deemed negative, it is ridiculous.
[QUOTE=Ragekipz;47861608]I'm sorry if I failed to properly communicate my opinion.[/QUOTE] Nobody even knows what you were arguing in the first place. Nobody said you can't call people the name they haven't chosen, it's just either weird or outright an asshole thing to do in the case of a trans person's chosen name.
[QUOTE=Primigenes;47861634]I don't know why Drake has to remind people he's an asshole all the time[/QUOTE] He's so deep in the character that he can't stop.

Would you say the same thing if he was saying "Man, I really hate faggots"?

Good luck to him because he'll get what is coming to him either way.

[QUOTE=Ragekipz;47861664]Isn't that a pretty hateful thing to do? I'm not saying you should acept it.[/QUOTE] Telling people that their thoughts on others is hurtful and wrong =/= oppression holy shit
[QUOTE=Ragekipz;47861664]Isn't that a pretty hateful thing to do? I'm not saying you should acept it.[/QUOTE] You're just trolling at this point.

[QUOTE=Ragekipz;47861664]Isn't that a pretty hateful thing to do? I'm not saying you should acept it.[/QUOTE] Intolerance of hate is not the same as intolerance of innocent, harmless people. They're not even remotely comparable.
[QUOTE=Zillamaster55;47861676]Telling people that their thoughts on others is hurtful and wrong =/= oppression holy shit[/QUOTE] Sure but what about "we push out the bigots of the population"?
