This is but the latest bigoted post from this person; he filled both my "What's so wrong about gay marriage" thread with similar posts, as well as other anti-gay threads. The guy is a bigot and needs to be, at the very least, warned.

I was about to say the same thing! Take a look at his profile to see what threads he's participated in/created and also note that he created his account today, then launched straight into trolling:

Free Speech. You can't rant anything you want, as long as your not flaming others or spamming. Lots of trollers here if you noticed.

And most likely his views are very very one sided opinion. However if you have to know, that 58% of men who has AIDS have sex with other men, to see his point.

In no way have I attacked or insulted another player. I am advancing a perfectly legitimate intellectual position. Indeed, I have not called for any retributive actions against gays, I have merely advanced the position that they are not, in fact, a disadvantaged group de facto, and given the current circumstances the whole notion of gay marriage is ridiculous.

I even gave a source.

Frankly, this complaint has a chilling effect on free speech, and could be considered common law extortion.

Actually, a large portion of his ranting is directed insults at other users. Now, granted, oftentimes this is spurned by them, but most of them are still unwarrented; you don't see me insulting someone back who insults me in a thread, now do you? I might be somewhat insulting at times based upon how tired I am, but for the most part I'm congenial, unlike him.
Curtis, you have attacked other people. Many times, in fact. Plus, your bigotry does nothing but hurt people; you're a rude, insensative bigot. That, in my mind, were I in a position of power here, would get you banned on the spot because I do not tolorate bigotry.

Oh, Gen Curtis: when you agreed to the Terms of the site, you forwent all your rights to free speech. Max Barry's site, Max Barry's rules.

He did forego his rights to free speech but perhaps not according to the rules that you might want him to be subject to. I may notr agree with everything Gen Curtis says but he is entitles to express his views and to call him a bigot is in itself intolerant. Anyone who calls him a bigot is INTOLERANT. Is that how you view yourself? If you dont like his arguments then argue back logically, to insult him simply sets yourself up as a flaming and unpopular poster.

Additionally regardless of whether homosexuality is right or wrong he makes a good point, an unnatural amount of resources are poured into it. Yes there are innocent victims, babies for example but if its innocent victims you want to help then pumping money into stopping typhoid or Polio in third world countries will save many more babies. If its people in your own country who you want to save then try pumping the money into prostate cancer or heart disease, again a much bigger killer of everyone instead of AIDS which mostly affects one special interest group. The same actually can be said of breast cancer, much more funding than testicular cancer which kills loads of people too but no one knows about that. If saving lives was your concern then money would be diverted from AIDS and breast cancer into heart disease and polio vaccines.
