Better a gay man than a wife beater or child abuser. We've had too many of them.

lol wtf. Thats like low key suggesting being gay is almost as bad but not as bad as a wife beater or child abuser. I doubt that is what you meant, but pretty much reads like that.

You should swing by the Pettis thread. Bout a 1000 pages of homophobic remarks.

This forum disappoints me with the bigotry that is commented towards LGBT constantly. They aren't jokes and it isnt funny. The mods allow it too

Really? As has been explained a million times this forum does not have full time moderation, neither do posts have to be cleared. We rely to quite an extent on posts being reported, and then it is definitely examined. Such posts as you are referring to are not always clear, particularly on a brief glance. So in rebuttal, if posts aren't reported, you are going to have to ask yourself and others, why not?

And i have reported it on multiple occasions and nothing is done, not even a message to me. Oh and the slurs are continually allowed.

I mean just go wade into the Transgender in Sports thread...

Just checked the report log. Don't see anything from you (went back for a while and stopped) and don't see anything reported in that thread.

It's really not that serious, theres a lot of horrible things going on in this tiny molt of dust suspended in a sunbeam called earth. some forgettable gay jokes that everyone would have shamelessly laughed at 12 years ago is at the bottom of it,

some player came out? Lol who cares?! Does anyone remember Michael Sam or whatever his name was?

This mentality is exactly why it took so long. Why Michael Sam was treated as a distraction. What you think are forgettable jokes is why we have to have an organization like the Trevor Project. Should we always just use the excuse there is something worse to excuse our terrible behavior?

Jokes are what they are…JOKES and not meant to be taken as gospel. you're telling my you've never made a "yo mama" joke in your life?. It's when people start to be hateful, make threats, or use tasteless slurs when there needs to be a line drawn

I think if racism, homophobia, etc ever ended it would be a horrible day for the ones claiming to be effected by it, they will have one less excuse on why they continue to fall short in their life

Uh, your disdain for those different than you is showing it's ugly side, bro. Better check yourself.
