I just remembered something that pissed me off the other day. I heard on the news that Six Flags started putting on the back of its tickets a little disclaimer that said they could refuse admission to anyone who was a convicted sex offender. The rationale of this was easy to see, as they want to make white, paranoid, crazy women who can’t keep an eye on their kids feel safe about their kids possibly being around crazed child molesters that might be in the vicinity.
Now, I'm no sex offender (nor any other felony offender), but that sounds to me like a load of horse shit. Correct me if I'm wrong, but if you're convicted of a crime, don't you do your time, get out of jail, and resume your life? Is not the point of jail to punish someone so that they don't do something again? By allowing people to discriminate against people who have been processed by our legal system, society is undermining basic human rights.
The legal system must assume that if someone goes to jail, once they get out they will not do again whatever they did to get there in the first place. That's the reason why not all punishments are life/death sentences. When society starts assuming that people exiting prison or other areas of the judicial system are not completely healed, we are assuming that the system does not work.
Thus, if the system does not work, why even bother with prisons and the “system” in the first place?
Additionally, “sex offenders” is an extremely broad category. It encompasses people who have pled/been found guilty of molestation, rape, incest, bestiality, and basically anything else involving a penis or a vagina, including sodomy. Yes, that’s right-- that’s us gay people prior to 2003’s overturning of anti-sodomy laws. Plus, this also includes people who plea bargained in any of the aforementioned cases—guilty or not.
Even better, the category of “sex offenders” remains perhaps one of the least provable, most controversial aspects of the justice system today. The majority of the time, it filters down to only two evidences: the differences between two peoples’ words, and circumstantial evidence. Even worse, several times out of many, it’s some dumb bitch saying she had too much to drink or got G’ed. Whatever happened to knowing your limits, or watching your drinks, or just using some fucking common sense? It really seems that very rarely are there ever true witnesses to any actual alleged crime, nor are there any tangible or scientific “pieces of evidence.” However, instead of “innocent until proven guilty,” in cases of alleged rape, molestation, etc, it’s guilty until proven innocent.
We’ve seen this in the Michael Jackson trial, where a kid’s word is taken over an adult’s. Not to deviate, but really—how many of you all with siblings can say that your brother or sister never lied… especially about big things? Anyway, back to the point:
How do we justify allowing convicted thieves, the criminally insane, and murderers near our children—all scientifically provable, nearly concrete evidentiary cases—while forbidding ALL of the might-be-guilty-but-can-never-be-sure “sex offenders” from going to Six Flags?
What’s the solution? Simple. Get rid of most anti-rape laws and replace them with self-defense exceptions. Once dumb assed women and pussy men realize that the law won’t protect them if they play the little boy/girl who cried wolf, they will be more inclined to take self-defense courses, and less inclined to use “rape” as a blackmail tool. Good ol’ karate and such makes for wonderful deterrents against lying. It would also cut back seriously on the number of “my highschool teacher raped me” shit that plagues the country. What’s that Sally? Some guy at a party tried to rape you? Why didn’t you kick his ass, or cut his dick off? Case dismissed.
I hate to be insensitive about this, but it’s the truth. If you can’t think clearly at all times (and that includes when someone tries to force you to have sex), then you deserve what’s coming to you. Lift some weights, take some martial arts, and have a plan. That way, next time someone tries to put a dick in your mouth at an inopportune moment, you hand it back to them nicely, along with a severed set of balls.
Personally, if anyone ever tried to pull a gun/knife at me, I would either kill them outright (I’d rather slice their Jacobs off during my last dying breath); or, I would do whatever they say, sit back, and pretend like I’m enjoying it. You know… it’s called acting. Then, when it can’t be linked back to you, follow their sleeze-asses back home, remove both of their eyes and skullfuck them in quick succession…. You know… for a metaphorical reach-around to say “thank you” for a night of rape. Then proceed to kill them quietly (if they’re not already dead).
I have a strange feeling that if everyone kicked the asses of anyone else who made undesired sexual advances on them, the world would be a better place… and we could say “fuck the discrimination at Six Flags” more easily.

Yay! Remember those whacky christians who thought the Lion King was a movie about sex, drugs, and violence? Yes, those same ones who thought musicals were indicative and approving of homosexuality finally figured out that boycotting a multi billion dollar industry wouldn't pay off. Christian group abandons Disney boycott
I particularly found the following from the article amusing:
The group called off the campaign without achieving any of the changes in corporate behavior it sought, including a call for Disney to ban "Gay Day" revelers from its theme parks and set up an advisory panel of evangelical Christians.
Added:
Other days they sought to ban were "Jew Day," "Muslim Day," "Dance Day," "Working Women Day," and "Free Expression Day," all the while promoting "Book Burning Day," "Smeer the Queer Day," and "Bomb the Brown People Day."
When questioned why they denied the god people's proposed Bible Beating committee, Disney's press correspondant, Aladdin, responded by scoffing "they can blow it out their holy, psychotic asses. I would tell them to shove a lamp up their asses, but they've probably got hidden, closeted dicks up there already."
When asked to comment, God only had a few cents to add: "Well, I heard about the whole thing while I was in the shower. Silly Christians."
He added, "I don't know what all the fuss is about. I love Disney. Finding Nemo made me cry near the end, and Ellen DeGeneres as Dory is just pure genious. I love that woman."

Wonderful news! Even the psychiatrists are now on the verge of completely turning against the Divine Christian Quest for the End of Fags. CNN - Psychiatrics want recognition of gay marriage.
Now, I have to applaud the American Psychiatric Association (APA), as they've been on the bleeding edge of gay rights through science. From the revisions of the DSM to exclude homosexuality from its disorders list, to including homophobia as a disorder in it, the APA has been the saving grace for us homos for a while now.
Personally, I think it would have totally sucked to have been locked in a straight jacket and then taken to a funny farm because I liked to kiss boys. Wait, hmm, that's actually kind of a kinky thought... all straight-jacketed... surrounded by other confirmed straight-jacketed gay guys......
SHIT! DOWN WITH THE APA! SAY NO TO HOMOSEXUALITY AS NORMAL! Heh...
Cheers. =)
Okay, so I figured I'd give in to peer pressure and actually start posting to one of these newfangled technological gadget things. I told myself that I really just wanted to write my own blog script so I wouldn't have to go through this but shrug I guess I'm too lazy.
In any case, yay!
So yeah, I was just watching the kickass Showtime movie "Reefer Madness," and I must say it kicks ass. I highly suggest downloading it (or getting it on DVD whenever that happens). It got me thinking, like so many great movies do, about various things.
I started wondering why priests aren't locked up more often. I'm not just talking about the retarded priests who molest children; rather, I'm talking about all priests. I honestly think it's bullshit preferential treatment by the government. Lemme give you an analogy:
The whackjob psychotic neighbor from down the street can come over to my house, tell me he's going to kill me and everyone I know, mutilate my body, urinate on my dead corpse, and proceed to skullfuck me. All of this is fine for him to do, because I would call the police, and he would be arrested for verbal assault. Either that, or I would just kill him outright and dissolve the body with muriatic acid... but we're talking about what most people would do.
Anyway, it is obvious that in our great society threats like that are taken seriously. It's a federal crime to threaten the president, too, so obviously there are limits to the "free speech" concept.
My problem is this: what about the whackjob priest/Mormon who comes over to my house, tells me another guy-- we'll call him "God" in order to protect the innocent-- is going to smite me and everyone I know, mutilate my soul, torture it for all eternity, and... well, somewhere in the afterlife be metaphorically skull fucked by some guy named Lucifer.
Why doesn't the priest get arrested? It's beyond me. If some dipshit is going to come to my door and tell me I'm going to hell for being gay, not believing the way he/she believes, or for just not donating to his/her church on a regular basis, I say we should be able to call the police, have him or her arrested for verbal assault, and let him feel what it's like to be anally raped in prison.
What a wonderful thought, an ex-priest getting bum-fucked in prison for telling someone he might be going to hell.
Of course, that doesn't happen. They get the exact opposite treatment: full tax-exempt status from the IRS, power in the government, laudability, and lots and lots of donations for the rare times they say something accepting and approving.
Call me jealous. After all, I'm just asking for equality. If they can tell me I might be going to hell, then I should be able to tell them they might find themselves dead as a result of a maniacal decapitation involving a blunt axe.
Of course, that's just my opinion... I could be wrong.
