Your a day late and a dollar short computer. This story already broke from one of your posters.

LATE AS ALWAYS....

I hope they just scrap the story altogether.

Meet our wonderful new world where people justify acting dickish in retaliation for dickishness. Nice lesson for tolerance. Say what? It has nothing to do with tolerance? My mistake.

And never again will I buy a comic drawn by Chris Sprouse.

You sound like me with anything involving Jim Lee. lol

Because you support bigotry?

Now that is a bold stance.

Would that we were all so bold in our own contrarian dumbassery.

If this author had used the same rhetoric against a racial minority, this wouldn't be a debate over matters of "opinion." Yes, he has a right to free speech. No, he doesn't have freedom from consequence.

That's okay, I'll pick up your slack.

He did NOT use that retoric against a racial minority, he opposes gay marriage. Are you telling me that we have come to the point in this country where if you have a moral objection to gay marriage you are to be shunned by society and not allowed to work simply because your point of view is different?

[whippis]

Yes. If you do not share similar views with those who are either self-appointed pervayors of current intellectual thinking, those who are decision makers or anyone in a position of power your view will no only be dissmissed by branded and hateful. I have no issue with same-sex marriage, I believe Mr. Spruce is entitled to follow his own conscience, and likewise I think Mr. Card can hold his views as well and neither should have to suffer ridicule becasue of it.

Bigotry isn't just about race... And bigotry is bad.

I don't see how that's any different.

An opinion is one thing, but he is an active hatemonger. He's on the board of directors of the National Board of Marriage, which exists solely to prevent the legalization of marriage equality. He frequently attempts to baselessly and directly link rape and pedophilia with homosexuality, both in real life and his fiction. This isn't about a point of view, and no one's saying he can't work. This is about him being a tactless supporter of hate, and people wishing not to support that.

Plus, he's kind of a turd.

OSC wants to imprison or brainwash gays. It's not just about gay marriage.
