I said the pregnant women would abort a homosexual baby if a test found that it was gay, just like they do for other congenital defects. More below... BENNETT: Well, I don't think it is either, I don't think it is either, because first of all, there is just too much that you don't know. But I do know that it's true that if you wanted to reduce crime, you could -- if that were your sole purpose, you could abort every black baby in this country, and your crime rate would go down. That would be an impossible, ridiculous, and morally reprehensible thing to do, but your crime rate would go down. So these far-out, these far-reaching, extensive extrapolations are, I think, tricky.Media Matters - Media Matters exposes Bennett: "[Y]ou could abort every black baby in this country, and your crime rate would go down" Quote:
Good luck with dat analogy elsewhere tho. Maybe white women ought to abort their babies because they can't jump. LOL. I'm done with these long ass posts tho. Considering my initial comment was not read and we have gotten this far gone, it's just silly to continue this. Holla.

Not at all.
The comparison is quite concrete. We are looking at motivations for why people should abort. You brought up "doesn't give grand-children", which has already been proven false, but we'll move past the underlying ignorance and bigotry that leads to such a statement for now. I am comparing cutting ACTUAL CRIME to a rational of "doesn't give grand-children". Which is a stronger rationale. Quote:
Or worse, murder somebody? What then? I admit some women due abort for congenital defects, which is neither here nor there considering we are talking about homosexuality which is not a "congenital defect". Furthermore, polls show that MOST people consider it an "acceptable lifestyle", which further undercuts your association. But back to the issue of COMPARING MOTIVATIONS, we already execute people who commit certain crimes of rape and murder. We don't execute adults who have "congenital defects". Society has already shown a justification and enactment for reducing crime based on executing people, so it's obviously MORE SOCIALLY ACCEPTABLE to go forth with my alternative, isn't it? Quote:
The stupidity of your approach, and the bigotry of the idea of aborting gay babies. You aren't even arguing the "justification". You're just arguing about what YOU THINK people would and wouldn't actually do. A man might LOVE to have a rich doctor date his daughter. But if that rich doctor happened to be of a different race, suddenly it would be a problem for some... And on your side of thing, you foolishly sit back and proclaim that it would be a problem, without trying to figure out WHY it would be a problem. Or maybe it's more of an issue where you KNOW WHY it would be a problem, and it's not convenient for you to acknowledge that BIGOTRY is at the heart of the difficulty. The idea of cutting crime is a much stronger rationale than simply "doesn't have grand-kids". Preventing a rape or a murder is a much stronger rationale than simply "doesn't have grand-kids". You postulate that a woman wouldn't want to abort her child just because it's of the same race? What if it were the white women (or men) who got to make that decision. Would you feel so confident then on the potential actions? Of course not, because then BIGOTRY plays a bigger picture. But of course, NONE of this is sinking in. Or else, you'll never honestly address this. Quote:
As usual, you are to thick to grasp the analogy, so you dismiss it. To you, an analogy's purpose revolves around the "poisoning the well" fallacy, so you can't grasp the nuances of simple comparisons. We currently execute a LOT of black people because they commit a LOT of murders, rapes, etc... Society does that already. That ACTUALLY happens, for a purpose that doesn't involve anything regarding "bigotry", but simple societal protection. But executing a kid because they can't jump? Maybe you need to look in the mirror to figure out the TRUE source of stupid analogies... ![]() Quote:
He lies about me not reading his initial comment. Yet he knows he has been pulverized on this topic, so he runs with a lie to try to bolster his exit. What do you want to bet that he'll be more than happy "to continue" other anti-gay topics that he thinks he has a better chance at? |

I have a great chance here. You just bore me. And unlike you, when I'm bored, instead of making a long ass post about it, I just stop posting about something.

And what's even more amusing is that you often MAKE MY ARGUMENTS FOR ME and don't even have a clue that you're proving my point. You mentioned it earlier. The person will not abort their own child THAT IS LIKE THEM. Demonstrating the prejudice factor. Would you be comfortable putting that decision for aborting a BLACK child in the hands of a WHITE mother? Quote:
The analogy exemplifies that the REASONING involved is PREJUDICE and IGNORANCE. Which is a bigger issue? Your kid killed somebody? Or he may not give you grand-kids? Quote:
"Most" people want equality for gays, with the ONLY subject that "most" shifts against gays is gay marriage. The "abortion" thing is NOT what "most" would do. Quote:
Those "many" include countries like Iran, Syria, Saudi Arabia.... Prime examples of countries which have backwards mentalities on MANY issues. Those countries that grant homosexuals equality are typically bastions of EQUALITY and FREEDOM. Key factors you leave out of your analysis. Quote:
And you can't bring yourself to note the obvious discrepancy which makes "homosexuality" significantly different ... Quote:

Let's repeat what Bennett said: BENNETT: Well, I don't think it is either, I don't think it is either, because first of all, there is just too much that you don't know. But I do know that it's true that if you wanted to reduce crime, you could -- if that were your sole purpose, you could abort every black baby in this country, and your crime rate would go down. The point is that the crime rate WOULD GO DOWN. Nobody said anything about ELIMINATING crime. Just making it GO DOWN. Try to pay attention. These posts get longer when I have to repeat myself cause the village idiot couldn't trouble himself to listen the first time... Quote:
It doesn't. Likewise, I could say "bigotry in genociding the entire black race is another person's reduction in crime rate". That response doesn't do anything to negate the fact that the original statement is STILL BIGOTRY. Killing a child just because it is gay IS bigotry. Calling the kid "deviant" does not eliminate the view of bigotry. LOL! Actually, you EPITOMIZE the bigotry in calling it such. Gays are "healthy offspring" just like straights. Only a bigot would try to claim otherwise... Quote:
I never said there would be no people aborting gay children, if they knew in advance. I have no problem admitting that SOME would. The bigotted ones. Just like there would be white folks who would abort their child if they knew he would be black. Right? Quote:
Hey idiot. Do ya think that the "gay" children are gonna be of a different race than the mother? The problem with your above response is that it ignorantly side-steps the REAL reason the baby would be aborted. I wasn't talking about black women "aborting their child if the child is going to be black". I was talking about black women aborting their child if they found out their child would KILL somebody someday. Quote:
The point is that the bigotry on the ONE attribute over-shadows the other issues. So a woman might abort her otherwise happy and healthy child just based on ONE characteristic. Being gay, which isn't a defect or a "dysfunction" any more than being a rich doctor, and black, makes an illegitimate suitor. Quote:
No. I do NOT think that somebody "just thinking something is wrong with homosexuality" is bigotry. We were talking about WOMEN KILLING GAY BABIES, and THAT is what I referred to as bigotry. These threads would be a LOT shorter if I didn't have to keep repeating myself for you... Quote:
I'm removing "race" from the picture, cause it's obviously not relevant for gay babies that are going to be the same race as the mother, right? I am talking about the hypothetical whereby "being of the same race" is removed from the picture. Quote:
As I stated, your idea of "analogy" revolves around the "poisoning the well" fallacy. You try to compare gays to any sort of negative thing imaginable. You PROVED my statement when you tried to accuse Tristan Robin of "racism" just because he had an analogy with blacks in a negative light. In THAT EXAMPLE AS WELL, you foolishly lept to the conclusion that he was trying to denigrate blacks. Instead, he was MAKING AN ANALOGY. You seriously don't understand what an analogy is. Quote:
We are talking about aborting homosexuality, with an ABORTING BLACK BABIES ANALOGY. And there I just talked about the analogy, and you try to refute that by saying "we are talking about homosexuality..."??? To go further with your "reply", If a gay "black, white, or asian commits a crime, he should be punished. And if that punishment is death, so be it" Often, your replies just don't grasp the point involved at all. Quote:
Quote:
I cut you a break and didn't respond to the more BLATANTLY STUPID parts of the original post. Then, when you whined that I didn't respond to every nuance, I actually went back and responded to the more idiotic parts. AND YOU DROPPED THE ISSUES AFTERWARDS. So why did you complain about me not responding to the more stupid stuff when you don't even have the cajones to defend what you complain I didn't reply to? Quote:
Quote:
Killing time? Cause you have no "chance" for convincing anybody of your credibility, or your cause. But as for your "stop posting about something", that's pure b.s., and we both know it. TOO many times that you have spent endlessly posting about gay crap to ever believe "getting bored" is an actual justification. Hate to say it fxashun, but you're too damn easily predictable. Too much ego and too little thought. And it bugs you that you KNOW I'm right... |

Name one circumstance why a woman of any race would abort the child of her husband because it happened to be the race of her husband. That premise is too dumb for words. Although I still question your constant use of "black" and "white". You do know there are 190 something countries and a small minority have an issue between "black" and "white" people. Race issues sure, but specifically "black" and "white", not so much. Curious to say the least. Over 90% of them forbid gay anything and 80 of them criminalize sodomy. Again a huge difference when viewed from a species level and not just locally. Holla.

I was responding on that type of playing field. Hypothetical scenarios. If we're going to ignore the hypotheticals because of their irrational basis, let me point out how ridiculous it is to talk about "aborting a baby because of gay genetics". Identical twins have identical DNA. Right? So does that guarantee that a baby with a "gay gene" will actually be gay? No. What it does do is point to the fact that there are a lot more things going on than just a "gay gene" at work. I was talking on the hypothetical plane, because that's the only way your proposal makes sense. It obviously doesn't make any sense for the anti-gay ignoramuses of the world out there aborting a baby because of "gay genetics" when they typically think that being gay is a choice in the first place. Quote:
Getting the wrong sperm at the sperm bank. IVF whereby the wrong fertilized embryo gets implanted in the woman. I came up with two and I wasn't even trying. Quote:
This has to do with the fact that BLACKS are STATISTICALLY more criminal, per capita. THAT is the reason for abortion. Not because they are specifically "black". You have tried your hardest to divorce the issue of "aborting gays" not being correlated to bigotry. You should at least try to recognize that the discussion on "aborting blacks" is correlated to criminality. Quote:
But regardless, we've already discussed this. The countries that take such a hard stance on gays are the countries like Iran, Syria, Saudi Arabia. Hardly known for freedom and equality. The countries that don't have a problem with gays are more modern countries. England. France. etc, etc. But yet again, you come back with the repeated comment, while being completely impotent in responding to the fact that those countries that behave that way are typically not "good role models" for much of anything. |
