That is the dumbest thing I've heard in years!
You honestly think you have a "right to not be offended"?

It's called respect.
What is wrong with common courtesy, respect, chivalry?

You didn't say respect, you claimed you had a right to not be offended which is the dumbest thing I've heard in years.

There is nothing wrong with respect, courtesy or chivalry but you still DO NOT have a right to not be offended.

I had written a reply, but whatever. It ain't even worth it.

You're right. The pc term is fundamentalist Muslims. They deserve respect too.

What they 'deserve' is to be gut-shot and then wrapped in pigskin and buried with the soles of their feet facing towards Mecca.

See, this is why I can never stay mad at you.

This Muslim woman is a professional shit disturber. Good for her. She riles up the anti-Muslim crowd with her niqab, and now has the Muzzies in a snit because the held a bra up to her boobs.

An equal-opportunity offender who manages to piss everyone on all sides off? A guy like me could marry a gal like that.

Respect is not a right.

Free speech is.

Pretty simple.

Seems your not much into freedom of speech either since you're here to mock and bully someone into silence for having a differing opinion.

Who's bullying? Brenda manufactured a 'right to not be offended' and she's saying that her right to not be offended trumps everyone else's right to freedom of speech.

To wit, her supposed right to not be offended would effectively obviate freedom of speech which is something I passionately defend.

Out of respect for Brenda I pointed out that she's being a pantywaisted ninny.

She should not consider that to be bullying or offensive given that she felt it was perfectly acceptable to call me a murderer for my past miltary service. By extension and in the context of the conversation, she called you one, too.

I can't imagine that you'd find that offensive.

nice way of twisting my words. Didn't say that.

and I stick to my point that you do not have to exercise that right every damned chance you get. Also, twisting my words makes you a liar. Just sayin'.

Respect and calling names do not go well together.

Then again, you have a habit of twisting peoples words the way they suit you, and dragging topics into other topics. Cheap shots.

This is one of those days where you sound like Eureka - making every possible excuse to back up some not so great behavior.

As for Brenda calling me a murderer - oh well. I know she didn't mean that. She has ESL issues. You know she didn't mean it too since you've been on this site with her for years. The fact that you're feigning such righteous indignation in the face of a poster you know (relatively for an internet forum) so well is just another gambit in your of so predictable bag of tricks for you to try and claim some kind of non-existent moral high ground so you can bully a conversation your way.

I know you won't like this so my neg rep button stand ready to reply.

Your sammich is in the making

[BartSimpson]

Brenda,
I'll apologize for coming on too strong here if it is the case that you did not understand what you were saying to me in the other topic. If you meant no harm then I apologize.

If you meant what you said then you offended me deeply and I'm afraid you'll have to appreciate my reaction to your post in this topic about a 'right not to be offended'. From my point of view it was gross hypocrisy.

Either way, I still wish you a nice weekend.

Brenda Brenda:

I also give a damn about the right to not be offended.

Where is that right? Where is that in the charter of rights and freedoms?

[Tricks]

Brenda Brenda:

Of course. But, when you are knowingly stirring the pot, you should not bitch when people are offended. That was the intention of exercising the right anyway.
Because you know, OTHER people have the same right...

They're not bitching people are offended. They're bitching that A) it was taken down and B) the Saudi government is meddling in Canadian University affairs. If this had happened at my university, I would have been outraged if our Admin and our Student Council didn't tell the Saudi Embassy to fuck right off. And probably would have done it myself.

It was taken down, which offends them.
Saudi government has the right to free speech in this country.

Also, as per the statement:

$1:

you do not have to exercise that right every damned chance you get

Why not? Lets put this in other contexts and see just how fucking ridiculous that is.

You do not have to exercise your freedom of conscience every damned chance you get.
You do not have to exercise your freedom of thought every damned chance you get.
You do not have to exercise your freedom of belief every damned chance you get.

I'm appalled someone is criticizing someone else for exercising one of their fundamental freedoms. And a woman no less. Un-fucking-believable.
