Today is the 12th wedding anniversary for me and Mrs. Burgundy. She allowed that when at Giant Eagle picking out a card to give me she found one that was really nice and appropriate until she got to the last line that indicated the card was from one guy to another. :StickSex:
 
Hallmark has to make cards for everyone RB, even that 3% of our country that drives the mass of our political agendas.
 
She should have found one for lesbians for you. You would like that.
 
I keep telling yinz that Italy doesn't **** around. First the Muzzies, now the gays.

Italian Court: Destroy All Gay ‘Marriage’ Registries
Italy's highest court has ordered every city to destroy same-sex marriage registries
by Miles Swigart • October 29, 2015 17 COMMENTS

ROME, Oct. 29, 2015 (ChurchMilitant.com) - The Council of State, Italy's highest administrative court, ruled Tuesday that all Italian cities must destroy registries of same-sex "marriages."

This highly controversial order comes in response to the Italian Premier's recent pledge to legalize same-sex civil unions by the end of the year.

Premier Matteo Renzi, a social progressive, agrees with many in his nation that Italy's lack of same-sex union laws are a national embarassment, Italy being the last prominent European nation not to have such legislation.

The Church tried in vain to subvert Matteo's agenda immediately, with Bp. Nunzio Galentino, secretary general of the Italian Bishops' Conference, denouncing the idea and stating it is unthinkable that a government would try to erode the family.

Though the Church may have held great political power in Italian politics in the past, the bishop's intervention fell on deaf ears. After years of bad catechesis and scandals, the Church is no longer regarded as a moral authority to guide consciences, and Matteo continued to fulfill his pledge.

However, an unexpected intervention came from the Council of State, which responded to Interior Minister Angelino Alfano's strong opposition to Matteo's progressive agenda.

Last year my circular banning the transcription of gay marriages contracted abroad drew controversy, sometimes even violent aggression and a hail of appeals. Now the Council of State has borne me out entirely: Marriage between two people of the same sex is not contemplated under Italian law, therefore the transcriptions made by local mayors are illegal and monitoring is the competence of the prefect. Very good.

Among the cities that recognized foreign marriage contracts of same-sex couples were Rome and Bologna, and this measure was a blow to gay activists who tired of waiting for lawmakers to give them civil union rights in Italy, with undersecretary Benedetto Della Vedova describing the ruling as "a victory for none and a defeat for all."

Alfano, however, said the ruling showed he was right to take a stand despite having provoked "controversy, sometimes violent aggression and a hail of appeals."

"Let us be clear. Marriage between two people of the same sex is not contemplated under Italian law, therefore the transcriptions made by local mayors are illegal," he stated.

The bill introducing civil unions for same-sex couples is still being examined by parliament despite fierce opposition, and Matteo seems unswayed by the ruling. With his time running out, however, it is questionable whether he can pass legislation before the year is up.

Gotta love the balls on those guidos.

My son told me two nights ago as I was putting him to bed..."Hey Dad...so...well, at school today they talked in class about transgender people."

I said "Yeah, and what did they tell you about them?"

He said "That they are people and they have feelings too."

I said "Yep, they are and yes they do."

Was an interesting discussion for the next 5 minutes or so.

Did the teacher also tell him that transgender people are about 0.00005% of the population?
 
Seems like every couple days my daughters now are telling me that so and so is gay, or transgender, or bi or some such. Or even recently, this kid told my daughter he has a crush on her, but he hopes she doesn't mind that he is "polyamorous". (Luckily she wasn't interested, as I told her there is no way at 15 she will be allowed to date someone who calls himself "polyamorous". Of course that makes me a closed minded bigot.)

Yes, "the ghey" is spreading. It seems like it's considered cool and edgy now by some kids.

So bi is two, poly is many. Is he into plants and animals too?

My girls just simply will not be allowed to date.

Nevermind, I just looked it up...

polyamorous
The state of having multiple sexually or romantically committed relationships at the same time, with the consent of all partners involved.

we need to fund studies and enact legislation to allow for more transgender people. we need a trangender czar, too.
and just like that, DBS1970 has a new job.

I did. I pointed out that 3% of the population is gay. That transgenders make up the smallest of percentages of that group. And I pointed out, "isn't it interesting that this was brought up in school? That they took limited hours out of the day to ensure you have compassion for this very small section of our population? Did they point out that atheists are people too? Choctaw Indians? Amputees? Did they ask that you have compassion for them?"

And so on. I shared with him how this is "trickle down politics" from Hollywood to the White House, and not to fall into the trap our nation is falling into. Every human being is equal. Right now, to our Government, not every human is equal and certain groups are afforded special attention the rest of us are not. I reminded him of the ESPY's and Kaitlyn Jenner - that that was a perfect example - that there were other, far more "courageous" individuals deserving the award, but due to politics and timing, he/she got the award.

Wrapped it up with "Life isn't always fair son."
 
It's all about "guilt" mentality.

We give special treatment to groups we feel guilty as a society about how we treated in the past. The LBGT group is the most recent of the many groups American society is doing this to. The 60's was women. The 70's was blacks. The 80's was handicapped. The 90's were hispanics. The 00's were the LBGT (starting with gays and ending with transgender).

This is nothing new or nothing really to worry about. The cycle does eventually balance out. I think the "guilt" of slavery is taking the longest to overcome, but even now I see backlash in it. A majority of Americans see through "Black Lives Matter". A majority of America saw some of the failures of a welfare state and reforms happened. We see democratic rule for decades in cities like Detroit and Cleveland and Philadelphia and see the problems not getting solved.

It kind of is what it is. Another group will garner of guilt and attention of the privileged after the LGBT community in another 5-10 years of so and I'm sure right-wing america will call it the downfall of America. It's not.

Geez, I hope he doesn't rat on you....you will be early for the re-education camps.
 
I wonder if the cards were distributed by Blue Mountain Card's gay brother company Brokeback Mountain…like that? See what I did there?

Firstly, I think the "guilt" comes from some misplaced sentimentalities on the left. I don't feel guilty, because I didn't do anything to feel guilty about.

The issue that I can see affecting the downfall of America is uncontrolled immigration, and illegal immigration. We see one party using it as a means to win votes, and another party too pussified to do anything about it. Look at what uncontrolled immigration is currently doing to Europe. The idiot lefty politicians are aiding and abetting the destruction of their own societies and cultures. And yes, it can happen.
 
did you file it with DBS? He's in charge of all this, y'know.

Nothing new is correct. Nothing to worry about, not so much.
 
Guilt might not be the right word. Maybe responsibility.

I think it is incorrect to think we should just ignore responsibility for past actions as a society (especially recent) using the guise of "that past is the past" or "I didn't do that so why should I care".

We know our society had some forms of discrimination and social biases against groups/minorities. I don't think it's a bad trait of society to try and correct some of those injustices. Do we go overboard sometimes? Absolutely. The pendulum often swings a bit too far. I mean, I think some of the handicap rules are just a huge waste of money. Being in construction, I have seen the ADA standards for sidewalk handicap ramps change numerous times in the past 2 decades and governments spend millions of dollars going around and changing out perfectly fine concrete ramps and replace them with completely overkill designs that cost way too much money.

Another example in construction is the recent changes to sediment and erosion control, which can add $10,000 easy to every house built (people don't even realize they're spending it on this). And the problem is it would cost $1000.00 a house to prevent 90% of sediment/erosion loss but the Natural Resource fools are obsessed with it so much they spend 90% of the money chasing the last 10% of effectiveness (and meanwhile farms are completely exempt from sediment and erosion controls). Remember we are talking about TEMPORARY construction expenses. We put all this money into jobs just to tear it all out at the end.

Those are just two examples of how the system works incorrectly. I'm all for spending that first 10% to 50% of money on a "cause" of restitution for past inaction in some degree. But there are always those that want to take advantage of the system and push the cost way, way up looking to correct every last nook and cranny of the problem, even those when the cost benefit analysis is ludicrously unbalanced and wasteful.

That's why some social injustice issues I have no problem with. Giving gays the right to marry? Who the **** cares. That doesn't cost us anything. Reasonable social welfare that can help the most common 90% of problems? I'll listen. Making social programs that cost 50% of the money trying to help the last 10% of problems? No way. We can't protect everyone from themselves. Sometimes we have to acknowledge that not all people can be saved. Give people reasonable chances to get out of poverty or a cycle of problems. REASONABLE being the defining word.

Okay, nice in theory. Define "reasonable chance". When do you decide to cut off a single mother with 8 kids?
