Is There Still A Need For This Expensive And Disruptive Exercise, In This Country?

Perhaps in those countries that are not so acceptive to homosexuality, but surely there is now no longer need here?

NJ.....Your are robust in your arguments.....and that's good....who wants it otherwise...as a rule you are robust and polite...

Your offerings are usually informative and interesting.....I have never said otherwise.....even if I don't agree with them...agreeing with each other would be dull.....

My only disappointment with your original post was that the words you used to describe those of us taking part in the parade were rude, untrue and hurtful to some.......and to be honest I would have expected you to make a better and more considered argument for your experience on that day.....

What you did post can be expected sometimes on AB......but not from you......usually.......x

All supporters of LGBT are in effect saying that there is nothing wrong with Sexual Deviations.


Listen ... what I and a consenting Henry the hoover get up to is not of your business, Hans.

I have no control over what people take offence from, Your Honour

Try that one if you ever find yourself in court, Just say a judge said it was sound reasoning.

You are picking up nicely Talbot.

No one has said that they despise gays so much that they would never have one as a friend.
I myself know a few gays and we get along fine, but then they are not forever thrusting their gayness at me, and neither do I thrust the fact that I am heterosexual at them.
Neither would they also want to parade around the streets dressed in pink hotpants.

I think you will find that it is not "'Gentlemen of a certain age' who go around 'Gay Bashing' but young thugs, so perhaps you and your like should be condemning the young rather than constantly telling us that they are more acceptable towards gays, and leave the old alone, who just happen to be against 'some' gays who wish to flaunt themselves at ever opportunity, but would never dream of doing them harm.

I think my Tinnitus is playing up again......all I can hear is 'whine, whine.......self-justifying whine'.

[anotheoldgit]

That's easy Jack, just stop whining.

[jackthehat]

It gets worse when I read your responses, AOG.....

[gness]

Do you think the time will ever come when being old won't be used as a lame excuse ......over and over?....x

Who's making excuses?
I think you will find that the elderly amongst us, lay our cards firmly on the table.

Which must be very hard for those much younger who have been brain washed in Political Correctness throughout their formative years.

[Mamyalynne]

For 'Brainwashed' read - tolerant,caring,fun and easy to get along with.

I have been falsely accused of many things on here but never making a fellow member's Tinnitus worse.

Perhaps you would be wise to pop along to your GP Jack, or perhaps a psychiatrist if you suspect that it is the reading of my responses that is making it worse.

[jackthehat]

No need, AOG.

It usually stops when you clock off for the evening...

[Mamyalynne]

Have you thought of counselling for your 'Accusation Complex'?

[anotheoldgit]

Mamyalynne

Yes the communist states, who are the professionals at brainwashing, are so tolerant, caring, fun and easy to get along with.

[Mamyalynne]

Gosh, are they - you are far more well travelled than I am obviously.

/// Have you thought of counselling for your 'Accusation Complex'? ///

No need to, I know it is true, see you have just accused me of having a complex now, when will it all end?

[albaqwerty]

AOG, hope you don't mind me asking.

I remember you saying that you weren't around during WW2, but were you around in the 60's?
Free love and all that?
