Pence VS. Rippon

To me, it doesn’t seem like that much to get all worked up about, and may very well be what it seems (a nice gesture)
Pence is strongly anti LGBT . So that straight up refutes this statement .
Seek strength, not to be greater than my brother, but to fight my greatest enemy -- myself.

No it doesn't.   Just because you are against a particular thing does not mean that you cannot be nice to a person or respectful to that person.  It also doesn't mean that he has ulterior motives, and if you are constantly questioning the motives of a particular group, then it may be you who is just angry, biased, and prejudiced.  As I said, it is perfectly possible, that it is just what it seems (a nice gesture).  However it seems that your bias and prejudice won't let you see anything else and nothing can falsify the narrative that may only be in your head.

If this were a racist neo-Nazi requesting a photo op with a black athlete, would you be as unassuming?

.....and we don't see it?   

Your gaydar works about as well as your appreciation for hypocrisy, I think. Wink

No you can't and no it's not . You can't one hand declare a group of people the preputators of moral decay . Then say your nice and respectful to them . You can't approve and push laws that cause that group misery or cratail their rights to happiness . Then say your being nice to them or that you respect them. That is weak apologetic double talk .  And fuck  you for accusing me of prejudice when you defend a man who IS  prejudiced .

It's not prejudice when it's "god's" opinion, Tiz.  Then it's just the good and right opinion.   Everyone knows that.

Kinda selective how Pence supports various measures against the LGBTQ orbit yet gives all manner of vile conduct a pass if the perps are hetero.

I would have liked to have seen Pence to have spurred some legislative initiatives to make the likes of Newt Gingrich less openly and notoriously fronting their adulterous lifestyles. Seems like the Scriptural imperative is there for that, funny Pence doesn't see it or act upon it.
 The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.
