[You are the same people who tried to justify slavery “because the bible”— you don’t get to be bigots just because you happen to be superstitious bigots.

Turns out that institutionalized douchebaggery is not a winner in the marketplace of ideas, and anti-gay Jim Crow laws are not remotely going to make it past the SCOTUS even if an individual state manages to ram it through. But you will manage to wawste a bunch of taxpayer money trying (because “party of fiscal responsibility”?)”]

My GOD, do you eat with those hands that are more full of hate than I have seen in a long time??? The Bible does NOT call for slavery, idiot.. “Ante-Gay?” Jim Crow was action against the Negros, who never wanted to be here anyway.. They were forced here by their own neighbors in the next country in Africa.. What you don’t read history??? Should try it! And a “individual state” has rights the same as you, except you have done nothing to earn that right.. At 75 I can call you a fool, I have seen many in my life and you fit right in..

The Bible does NOT call for slavery

1) That's not what he said, he said "justify slavery "because the bible"," which is entirely different
2) Indeed, the bible does not call for slavery, as that would assume that it didn't already exist; it just assumes it's part of the natural order of things.

Jim Crow was action against the Negros, who never wanted to be here anyway

Jim Crow came after slavery. The original slaves may not have wanted to be in America, but by emancipation, the slaves - and most of their grandparents - knew no other place.

They were forced here by their own neighbors in the next country in Africa.

The Africans ran the transatlantic trade? It was Europeans who took them to the Americas, nobody else. And if there were no white men to buy, the slaves may have been sold elsewhere in Africa.

Should try it!

Physician, heal thyself.

And a “individual state” has rights the same as you, except you have done nothing to earn that right.

All things considered, this is completely meaningless.

At 75 I can call you a fool, I have seen many in my life and you fit right in.

There are occasions when age does not bring wisdom, or even adulthood.

Jim Crow laws were about your neighbours whom you showed nothing but contempt and about your fellow citizens, who were relegated to second-class status. And the Bible's stance on slavery evolves over time, especially after the Babylonian Resettlement (it's almost as if after getting their asses handed over to them a few times Jews decided to chill out...). However slavery apologists conveniently 'forgot' about it and decided to go with verses supporting their view. Oh, and individual's rights are bestowed upon them by the virtue of them being human and their life having intrinsic value. Noone earns human rights any other way then becoming alive.

The Bible does condone slavery, it did not have to call for slavery, as slavery was already common at that time.
Not "Ante-gay", silly; "anti-gay". He is comparing the laws with the Jim Crow laws, stupid, he doesn't mean that they are identical, only similar. Homosexuals didn't choose to be homosexuals either, they were born that way.

So, you know a bit of history; good for you! If only you knew as much about grammar... I learn that, and much more, about the slave trade when I was about 12 or 13; my parents gave us a sort of comic book about it, so that we could educate ourselves. Sorry, now I recall; the book was about imperialism as a whole, not just the slave trade.

A state does not have the same rights as a human being, no. A state, first and foremost, has responsibilities towards its citizens. How do you know that your adversary has done nothing to earn those rights? What has an embryo done to deserve all the rights that the Teabaggers want to endow it with?

You're not even a fool, old man. You're just a has-been, a sorry excuse for a human being.

What the fuck is this even supposed to mean?! Also, getting called out on your bigotry isn't hate, and you are the hateful one for condoning discrimination.

The Bible does NOT call for slavery, idiot.

The bible doesn't condemn slavery, stupid. In fact, verses in both testaments condone it. Maybe you should read it sometime so you don't make yourself out to be an idiot.

Jim Crow was action against the Negros, who never wanted to be here anyway.. They were forced here by their own neighbors in the next country in Africa.. What you don’t read history??? Should try it!

Gee, ya think maybe they didn't want to be here because they were being kept as slaves and later legally discriminated against? And does the fact that some didn't want to be here make discrimination okay? What's your point? Oh, and yes, slavery was completely the fault of other Africans and the slave trade totally wasn't run by white people at all. Clearly you're the one who doesn't read history as you know nothing about it, so take your own unsolicited advice.

And a “individual state” has rights the same as you, except you have done nothing to earn that right.

Actually, a state does not have the same rights as an individual, and a state cannot deny its citizens their constitutional rights. Also, rights aren't earned, you get them for simply being alive and human.

At 75 I can call you a fool, I have seen many in my life and you fit right in..

No, you're just projecting again. Clearly you are the fool, as you know nothing about history, human rights, or your own holy book. Thank you for proving once again that age doesn't necessarily bring wisdom or even intelligence.
