In article <4145@ucsbcsl.ucsb.edu>  babbles:

WRONG.  As long as they don't try hit on me I could
and do care less, and they haven't so far, so we have
absolutely no problems.

Just because I said that I might not participate in oral sex, in
no way indicates that I believe being a normal heterosexual precludes
having oral sex.

I don't think I know anyone from Georgia.

I know what you said.  I know what you meant.  I was responding to
your statement, not your thoughts.  There is a difference.

In the above statement, given the context of this article, I detect
the presupposition that I associate with Strommie and RJ.

Look who the bigot is now.  It's not okay, according to you, not to
associate with homosexuals just for the reason that they're homosexual, 
but just because you don't care for Ronnie's attitude, I'm not supposed 
to associate with him?  Who went to hell and made you the moral voice
of alt.flame?  Hey, Keegan, you still alive?

AND WHEN, WHY, WHERE, HAVE I ASSOCIATED WITH HIM OR STROMMIE?

My view is loud and clear, and it's my own, not yours, not Ronnie's
and not Strommie's.  They flame heterosexuals and homosexuals
alike, and so do I.

That is your opinion on what my opinion is, but that is pretty
shallow and pretty far off.  I post to flame self-righteous assholes
who think they can tell everyone what to think.
