    I support "eco-terrorist" groups like the ELF.

    IDK, it seems like the gun control activists are often portrayed as the good guys by the media. Of course, my idea of gun control is holding it with both hands.

    I am conservative but NOT Republican, nor am I Democrat. I feel that the person themselves should determine whether you vote for them, and not the party they're running through. And (in blunt terms) anybody who votes for someone "to support the party" is a completely shallow moron, and they are the reason idiots get into office for anything. Voting just because someone is Republican or Democrat is just. Plain. Stupid.

    ANYways, that's my rant for the day.

    I find that pistols are easier to control with one hand, but I see your point.

    The Mysterious Mare Do Well is a decent episode, imo
    also, Party of One is mediocre (we all know the infamous Pinkie breakdown, but I didn't care for anything else in the episode)

    I believe that being gay is wrong. Yep there you have it. I'm fairly positive we have some gays on this forum. I don't mind gay people. I still treat them the same. Heck I have two bisexual friends. If people accept me being a brony I should accept their decision as well.

    I think you'll be hard pressed to find any website that isn't anti-gay that doesn't have gays on it. Lol.

    What?!
    That doesn't even make any sense. I'm not trying to start an argument, but that doesn't make any sense.

    It makes sense to me, I feel the same way as what is indicated by those bolded phrases.

    Basically the idea is that homosexuality is a sin, but there is no reason for us to hate them just because they sinned by being gay. We all sin. It's stupid to hate someone because they're not perfect, because none of us are.

    At least that's my perspective, religiously. Dunno if he felt that way at all. :p

    People who hate on gay people are not thinking things through all the way, especially if they're Christians.

    So...OK. That's brave. I respect that.

    But...How is that being phrased? Because it appears pretty incendiary to a more uptight individual. And this is the internet, we have those by the thousand! *ahem*youtube*ahem*comments*ahem* Excuse me, I've been suffering with a cold for weeks.

    Judging by how much extra explanation you use to pad the blow, I want to believe that your stance is less that it's 'wrong' and more that it's 'icky'. Which is fine. Congratulations, the world now knows your a hetrosexual man. Go ahead and pursue ladies and sow those oats. Just because the planet's population hit 7 billion recently doesn't mean we have to stop adding to it all together. Plus, we bisexual males will help by thinning down the competition a bit.

    Stupidity aside, no one expects you to like it or join in, just not care in the least. Which seems like what's going on. Acceptance tends to be less embracing something as just not caring if it's there or not.

    Unless your stance is that it's biologically 'wrong', in which I guess makes some sense if you're thinking along the lines of that toy with the blocks and the shaped holes. But that suggests a narrow view towards only sex, ignoring the broad scope of finding love and companionship with someone that you connect with emotionally. Even so, call it 'wrong' doesn't seem quite what you mean.

    I don't mean to challenge you so much on this but I really want to know what fuels that wording.

    I believe that humanity has unlimited potential, if only we could learn to get past our petty differences and focus on what's really important.

    It makes me slightly sad to write this. It really shouldn't be such an unpopular opinion.

    Wow... Your impression of an average Tea Party member is spot-on.

    Another unpopular opinion!!!
    Ready for the s**tstorm!

    *deep breath in*
    The one guy who gives out healthy things on Halloween is doing a good thing, not just health wise.
    The good thing gets your expectations down, making all houses afterwards seem like better rewards and generally improving a trick-or-treaters night!

    Yes that is exactly what I mean. I think being gay is wrong, but we shouldn't hate them for it.

    As a Northern Irish citizen, I have strong feelings on the ongoing conflicts here and abroad. As a result, I suppose my unpopular views include my support for groups such as the Continuity Irish Republican Army, the Irish National Liberation Army, the "New" Irish Republican Army and Óglaigh na hÉireann, which are paramilitaries which oppose British occupation of Northern Ireland. Abroad, I also support Euskadi Ta Askatasuna, Fateh, the Palestinian Liberation Organisation and the now defunct Red Army Faction.

    My support for such militant movements has nothing to do with wanting to crush opponents or causing mass murder in the name of a cause, but to pressure the governments of countries to concede to the demands of seperatist and left wing movements, while causing as little harm as possible. It is for this reason that I don't include groups like Hamas, which has often used religion as an excuse to murder civilians, and I was even reluctant to put Fateh on as well, due to some similarities in it's structure. My anger is directed primarily at imperialism and the extreme right wing.

    Agreed! I think the upbeat tune is what sells it for me.
