There's a dude on campus right now sitting a folding chair with a huge banner with pictures of aborted fetuses from the third trimester. The opposite side compares abortion to the holocaust. I'm pretty sure the pictures, even just linked to, would be banworthy.
He's also got a video camera set up, presumably to capture students reacting to him. I don't think people calling him a douchebag is quite the response he wanted, though.
So what stuff have you guys seen in real life that would have gotten the person banned from the forums here?
One of those fuckers was at my campus the other day.
Part of me wanted to grab a poster board and write, "Hitler. Stalin. Bin Ladin. What do they all have in common? They were all fetuses. Think about it."
But the rest of me just wanted to go home and nap.
While I may not agree with what Ponyfeels, or said to her, and I'm not etirely sure it was the "correct" thing to do.... I still respect him for telling her the truth. He is correct however in that she knew ahead of time what he would think and still came to him. In that sense he did the correct thing.
However overall? I may have been a tad less harsh. But thats the difference between us. Niether one is really right or wrong. We hold polar opposite views on the subject.
right
i'm also not a very sugary person in general
especially on extremely serious matters such as this
i am blunt and honest, sometimes at the expense of other peoples' sensitivities
it's just how i is. people close to me know this, so they don't come to me on such a subject expecting anything less.

i do say that's pretty clever.
i'm remembering it.
remembering it? shit, I'm full on stealing it for use in my day to day conversations.
in more enjoyable news.... I'm toying with the idea of hosting a vent or teamspeak server here at work in our datacenter. I could easily handle 100 slots.
Pony I know you said the SE vent server was needing funds.... how about I just create one for free?

You can handle 100 slots? But you don't even have one working penis, let alone 100!
But man, over 90% of abortions are performed in the early part of the first trimester.
Which is why people shoving pictures of dismembered fetuses in my face just makes me angry.
it's because first trimester abortions don't look enough like babies
they're pretty formless bloody blobs
and that doesn't evoke an emotional response out of people
it's not like putting a tiny hand next to a dime
i hate people like these anti-abortion shit-heels
they're like the god damn truth.com anti-smoking people
if your only way to get someone against something is to present one-sided quasi-facts designed more to evoke an emotional response rather than speak to someone's logic and enhance their knowledge
then the foundation of your cause gets cast in a pretty dubious light
which, you can understand, being a dude against abortion this is mighty annoying.
i mean hell, i daresay if your only way of getting someone against something is to terrify them of it
i still laughed when this dude who had a "MARRIAGE = MAN + WOMAN" 700 club bumper stick on his car also had "FAG" keyed into his trunk.
because i thought
man that guy's a douchebag
and he's going to be so pissed off when he sees that
and that's pretty funny
yeah my friend has that same 700 bumper sticker on his van. I wonder why he would even support something from the 700 club.
$20 says your buddy is a $20 bottle of whiskey away from a gay experience
and then he'll beat the shit out of the guy who seduced him as an attempt to re-assert his manliness
people who feel the need to advertise on the issue on the back of their god damn vehicle clearly have some pretty nasty unresolved personal issues with the subject
See, the thing with abortion is, people can't accept that I think some abortion is okay, and some isn't.
It's like Steven Colbert's "pick a side" schitck, only not funny.
same.
i say i'm against abortion, because i am also against, you know, killing
as a general rule
i am against it
that said
there are exceptions. there are situations where the unfortunate reality is that someone's gotta die so someone else can live. still ain't good, but, is how it is.
Man I don't see how spreading your religion by telling the guys you want to teach that they're going to hell is a good idea in the first place.
It sounds like bad marketing.
That's why the Catholics promised dudes they would win wars and that they could keep doing all the other stuff they were doing as long as they switched.

obviously, this just means he is also pro-hitler

OK this kinda surprises me.
Bahaha.
Rad.
i mean it's not like i am against the idea of homosexuals being married entirely
that'd be pretty odd all things considered
more accurately i'm against the gay marriage agenda and how it operates, and i am against how gay marriage was passed into law in my country
really i should be more clear when i say things like that.

oh man
burn
i don't even know the dude and i gotta tip my hat to that
We were watching Whose Line, and right after that came the 700 Club.
When the show started, one of them said, `Oh, the news is on'.
O_o Not exactly.
same.

for example
ectopic pregnancy
to be honest, I feel bad typing that but my friend is kinda slow. plus, he got it used so possibly the sticker was on there before he got it.
oh god this makes my face hurt
i am in pain
He was pretty ineloquint for a guy with a giant sign telling everyone around him that they're going to hell.
I told him that he was fighting the good fight and that he should keep on trucking.
It sounds like bad marketing.
it's almost like a type of fear marketing
buy my product or you'll be miserable and eventually die
alternately, fear anti-marketing (like truth.com)
buy this product and you'll be miserable and eventually die
This was pretty much the best comment.
I was under the impression that third trimester abortions were illegal in the United States?
they are
but they make the most evocative photography so those are the pictures used.
That's why the Catholics promised dudes they would win wars and that they could keep doing all the other stuff they were doing as long as they switched.

Oh, so they're liars.
Awesome.
Oh they had us by the balls for many many centuries i tell ya
We had that at my campus in 2002, and I guess it's a yearly deal.
I got pissed at arguing with a guy about personhood versus humanity.
That, and the pictures were terrible.
I wish someone had punched him in the face.
