    im suprised at some of the comments,but then again its boards,youre going to get the few who dont agree with what your saying,and some just for the sake of it,but in fairness though the christian shouldnt have been in the middle of the march,its like putting a jew in the middle of jordan or palestine,in general its not the best of ideas..:pac:

    I was very interested and frustrated at the same time at the posters backing up this guy. Completely blind to the fact that he was there purely to cause a trouble (he must have known that he wasn't going to go down well).

    They're just being consistent with their holy book. I can guarantee that their houses are free of mildew and they don't wear clothes cut from more than one cloth.

    OP, I think you should post the video here and play down the reference to the other forum. The thread might get locked otherwise. I'm not sure how you can do it though, since this thread is essentially one about the bigotry expressed in the other forum.

    so how far should this be stretched?

    people shouldn't be allowed protest at birther rallies because they're obviously just there to cause trouble?
    no anti-war demonstrations outside republican conventions? no counter protests near youth defence anti abortion stands? no anti-racism activists at KKK marches?

    whatever his political opinions if he wasn't being violent or harassing anybody he should have been let at it

    Personally, I think attacking him was counter productive. I prefer to see idiots like him sidelined or ridiculed.

    The forum isn't to discuss the goings on in other forums. Particularly that one.
