And those freedoms end when you infringe on someone else's. You likened being grossed out to being accepted. Sounds like some discrimination to me.

You have the right to be gay or stupid or a zionist.
You have the right to be a chicken, a duck, or a brain surgeon.

About the same level of false equivalency I think.

I have the right to tell you to fuck off [not that I would, just an example].
Depends on the scenario. Are you telling me to **** off for being gay and eating in your restaurant? Because that's unacceptable and you should have your business shut down for something like that.

Quote:
May not be the best policy, but it is the right of humans to discriminate.
So you are defending discrimination.

Quote:
People discriminate every day. You see a shadowy teen in an oversized coat walking toward you in the middle of the night on the sidewalk. You switch sides. BOOM! Discrimination.
Nice surface level talking point. Gauging a scenario is far different from treating people differently for things that aren't in their control.

Quote:
The waitress asks you if you want tea or lemonade. You say tea. BOOM! Discrimination.
I don't get it. You think that preference is discrimination?

And the leprosy thing is mot a false equivalence. Using big words doesn't make you right LOL. But nice try.
Sorry, I thought most people would know what it means. Here's a link:

ENDPOINT: I may not like the way you practice your freedom, but I will fight for you to have it. I will fight equally for someone to have the right to be gay just as hard as I will fight for someone to call them a faggot.
Ja you're pretty much just someone who wants to call people a ***got then. People who would act so aggressively for something so innocent should not be a part of society so idk, round them up and put them in camps? Get some saunas.
