    I think that's someone taking the piss out of your posts.

    And you guys were throwing it around before that post.

    And it doesn't address my point. Wouldn't it be ****ty of me to stick "f4ggot" in my replies to you, as if you had used it? It would be me accusing you of being a homophobe. You wouldn't like that, and rightly so.

    At least they are consistent in their beliefs and not big hypocrites.

    I wouldn't like it because it simply isn't true.

    I did clarify multiple times
    you ignored the point every single time
    Just like you are doing now
    I hope this post is not too long

    There was NO clarification - I had to figure out what the hell you were repeatedly on about. Get ovet it.

    Well, no. Not if they are a la carte. I am sure they are happy to print flyers for businesses that open Sundays. But that's cool. I wonder why a private invite for a civil partnership is worse?

    They can pick what ever bit of the religion to follow that they want and still call themselves christians, as has been determined earlier

    Perhaps stop trying so hard to be smart that would be a good start. If you really do wish to discuss the topic such replies as above are contemptible

    what? No. I don't give a ****. Say what you like. But you will look like a judgmental and/or petty jerk if you imply a poster who hasn't used it has.


    Not so fast. I didn't.

    oh yes? See below


    I wouldn't like it because it simply isn't true.

    have you any reason to think these posters you are replying to with "breeder" are the kind of people who think that way about you?

    I find facing up to my "breeder" responsibilities quite stressful at times, especially knowing I am disbarred from places where I might unwind on account of my oppressive sexuality. Maybe those guys are on to something.

    Reprise, I'll give it a go> Even though another perspective would be nice, but enough pandering...........


    Just like in this case no discrimination has taken place as the printer does not provide that service. He has a conscientious objection to the material being printed, as is his right, and can choose not to print it. It is well within the law to do so and he can not and should not be forced to print the material.

    Why do you keep obsessing over this 'insult'? How is it even an insult? The term carries no negative connotations whatsoever and breeding is essential to our survival so jokes on whoever used that stupid word

    Of course they can. And the public may say "hey, look at these assholes" and destroy the business. Ah well.

    1. Define "obsessing".
    2. Explain this.

    So we persecute them until they go out of business,


    We've had the FB hate campaign
    Radio interviews with 5 hours
    Flags been hung outside the building


    What's next?

    Sounds like a plan :rolleyes:

    Im just going to ask, if the business was made fulfil the wedding invitations for the homosexual couple, would it not be discrimination towards the owner because they are not allowed follow the beliefs of their religion?

    I can only speak for myself, but if you are a homophobe and/or want to show your displeasure with the behaviour of other gay people by taking it out on my business, be my guest. Make my day. I believe you are on the wrong side of history, and your numbers are dwindling.

    Who appointed you the role of deciding what is and isn't offensive?

    I have only ever used the word in context and in response to someone else employing it, oddly enough, always someone LGBTH. Feel free to directly link otherwise.

    Well following a ruling of 2 specific cases by the 2013 European Court of Human Rights -the answer is no - it would not be discrimation against the owner of the business.
