Crazy person on Hartmann

[Doctor_J]

Caller Jesse - "If we start granting marriages to gays, the next logical step is for someone to marry and have sex with their dog"

Or maybe it was "Rick from Pennsylvania" :rofl:

1. Thom just shut his stupid shit down (as he always does with the reich wingers)

even had to bring his gay ducks "Adam & Steve" into it. :rofl:

6. What is the duck story?

[Sebastian Doyle]

9. As you may or may not know, Thom lives on a houseboat in Portland

There's this pair of mallards that live at the marina, and they're both male. So Thom named them "Adam & Steve".

[EFerrari]

10. Ha. I have six cats here and the two males are only interested

in each other. But they're just Sweetie and Spanky. :)

2. next logical step, eh?

how is it possible to be that stupid?

[Doctor_J]

3. Yup, that's what he said

Amazing what we're up against.

7. I wonder if these people even think about what they're saying.

He's comparing marrying a fellow human being to marrying an animal. It reveals how they think of gays and lesbians, doesn't it?

[Ian David]

4. So, banning gay marriage is the only thing keeping Jesse from wanting to marry his dog? n/t

[Doctor_J]

5. Not Jesse. He confessed to Thom that he was born, and continues to

be, attracted to (human) women. He would not however admit that gays are born the way they are.

I am sure that Jesse, while a breeder himself (though I can't imagine what sort of mutant would actually date him), is sure that 3 weeks after gays can legally marry, his neighborhood will be crawling (no pun intended) with inter-species couples.

8. Someday someone should chase that "logic" down the rabbit hole

"So Jesse, explain how this is the next logical step, to use your own words. How is that the next logical step?"

Then sit back and listen as the crazy spews. I keep hearing these "logical" talking points, but I'd really like someone to try to get at the "logic" allegedly lurking behind the statements. Why do you say that? What connections do you make in your own mind that make the jump from same sex marriage to cross-species marriage? At the very least, it might interrupt the momentum and cause a synapse or two to fire in someone's brain and say to himself or herself: "You know, that doesn't make any goddam sense at all!"
