Concerning Prop 8 and getting upset over something that technically doesnt affect me...

I was debating on whether or not I actually wanted to address this in an lj post, but I've been itching for a good rant for a while now and at least this topic is unlikely to offend anyone on my flist

i know the person and the updates you mean i think. I consider the person a friend even if it is just on the interwebz and i was actually quite shocked by what she said

[mirfainlasui]

Ironically I always sort of disliked her anyway for silly petty reasons but at least now I have some actual reasoning for it.

What you said about the fact that she doesn't live in the coutries with the starving children, that is so true. I just...I got so outraged over those comments because you know what, whether you're gay, straight from California or not you can still be outraged over a lack of equality. I'm not from Afghanistan...does that mean I don't get to be outraged over the fact that you can be put to death for being gay over there?!

Sigh.

Hello stranger!

I just wanted to butt in slightly and say I considered her a friend aswell and I never EVER argue with people over the internet cus I think it never really gains anything but I couldn't sit back and let her say something so, well, outrageous.

I pointed out that starving people in the world doesn't directly affect her so why is she bothered but it seems she failed to see my point.

I get why you didn't wanna say anything but also I feel like I'm the only one who did say anything and she's made me out to be some sensitive touchy person :( and i'm not (well I am but not the point :P)

I spoke to another friend who is also a friend with this person and she too was shocked by it. It was maybe more shock that i didn't respond to what she said and i just wasn't in the mood to get into a slagging match at that point cause i know it would have dissolved into that cause i've been a mouthy bitch lately and can't hold my tongue. Not that she wouldn't have deserved it for what she went on about.

If she couldn't see the point you made it makes me less inclined to say something about it as she seems happy with moronic views and she can keep them for all i care if thats the person she really is.

Im just going to update twitter with lots of anti prop 8 stuff to piss her off cause obviously i want to be fashionable.

I don't know, maybe i will mention something cause it did really piss me off. God, indecisiveness is my fucking superpower or something!

I actually pretty much despiseee internet slanging matches but she was so out of order. It's not the first time she's made a seriously idiotic comment concerning world politics either but this time it just really got to me. I just kinda wanted everyone to be angry at her for her to realise how out of order she was.

Can I add you on here and twitterr kelliee?

[kidsxheroes]

Lol, i ended up saying something about how i felt it on my twitter. Not directed at her but still drawing attention to it and no way could it have been about anyone else. Thank god she's in the minority amongst my friends.
It was a very stupid and heartless comment, she must know people weren't going to take it lying down.

And sure, kidsxheroes over on twitter too.

It just shocked me that someone could be so I dunno, ignorant? I'm not even sure if that's the right word.

Added :)
