Apparently something went wrong with this post’s original photo, which I took. That’s fixed now, and it’s back (the flag is blowing the other way). Thanks for your photo (credited by link) in the interim, p…kin…e.

Just let me interject for a moment. Do your homework. The same people who created and fund Planned Parenthood are also responsible for influencing the mass media's recent acceptance of “fags” (which I actually support, just not or the same reasons of population suppression.)

Read Naomi Wolf, The End of America. Nazis are not the only fascists.

Don't change the subject, Andy; although Swiftee's a friend of mine, I don't endorse everything he writes in every forum, and he knows it (and when he's right, dammit, he's right). If you think I need to explicitly condemn everything he writes that I disagree with, I have a long list of leftyblogs for you to toss under the bus. Assuming you wanna avoid a charge of "cavorting".

You game?

If we may get back on subject, by your leave: I'm not sure how one can write a "neutral" piece about something that compares half of one's fellow citizens to Nazis; not sure if "neutrality" is appropriate when an act is both criminal and oozes hatred.

I mean, if someone spray-painted "KILL FAGS" on a Planned Parenthood clinic, and I were to write a "neutral" piece on it, you'd certainly draw inferences over my "neutrality", no?

The difference is, that'll remain forever hypothetical. As opposed to...

...well, you know.

Wow. Mr. Steller wrote a pretty neutral description of a noteworthy incident.

It's interesting that you seem so sensitive to “loaded words” and “hate,” considering you cavort with hate-blogger Tom Swift.

So, Mr. Steller, why exactly are you glorifying both criminal vandalism and a bigoted attack against people coming to our city to take part in the democratic process?

Indeed - are you endorsing the idea that people who differ from the comfy-left-of-center mainstream are "phascists?" That's a pretty loaded word, there.

(And yes, I use the word "glorifying" advisedly; you are quite clearly not condemning this act, which is both vandalism and, as Hillary would say, "creating a climate of hate". You don't support hate, do you?)
