How dare you or Brody inhibit or belittle Nick's opinions? Maybe I missed something, but isn't that pretty much exactly what you're doing to their opinions? Or is it that the only opinions to belittle are the ones you disagree with? It's abit confusing.
How about you get out there and do something or say something other than being a big fish on a small board. I can't speak for anyone else, but I don't pretend to know what other people do or don't do all the time. It's sort of the nature of the internet, right?
I agree that BrodyFosse's comments about Nick Adams were inappropriate and irrelevant, but I just don't see how this turned specifically into a Kringas vanity thread simply because he didn't like Nick's tone much in the same way Nick didn't like BrodyFosse's.
Sorry, I just thought that was really weird.
No, words are not the same as fists, but they certainly can lead to fists rather quickly.
If Nick is taking the time to tweet regarding a message board post, then he certainly isn't above ridiculing those who post on them. That's the real douchey part.
What else? Oh, yeah.
Cigarette burns, epithets and shoving are NOT travesties; it happens every single day in this city. Homophobic violence is always a travesty. Just as is any other act of violence incited by bigotry, hate, greed, jealousy, lust, etc. Do I think this is an iconic event comparable to the fate of Matthew Shepard? No. But the more these events are featured, the more they heighten awareness. Remember Paul Broussard? Most people don't because it was back in 1991.
