While I encourage reading this post for yourself, the short version is that, like the URL says, you can't deny people their rights and be nice about it. If you're against gay people getting married, you're a homophobe, full stop. It doesn't matter what your reasons are, it doesn't matter if you're smiling and chirping while you tell people that they're filthy degenerates who need to repent or burn and don't deserve the same rights as straight people. If you're making the same point as Westboro, you're going to get lumped in with them.

And that's really the thing that people like Adam4d don't, can't, or won't understand: nobody gives a poo poo how nice you are about denying their rights, because you're still denying them their loving rights.

I'm not sure what's worse, people who try to be nice about their homophobic views ("I love gay people! I just don't think they should be married.") or those supposed gay marriage supporters who say "I don't agree with what he's saying, but at least he's being nice about it" and let it slide.

MLK Jr. said the white moderate was worse than a KKK member because of their inaction to care, so I'm inclined to say the latter is worse.

Hmmm, if only there were some system by which he could have spent that $695 on health insurance so that he would have not been fined and would have received his tax refund! Too bad no such thing exists.

So the penalty is 1% of their annual income or $95 dollars per adult. Whichever is greater. Which means this guy makes $69,500 and still refused to pick up health insurance.That's his own loving fault.

$695 is the maximum 2016 penalty per adult, the 2015 maximum penalty per adult is $325.

Other than that, if he's not getting a refund, and must pay a penalty, wouldn't that mean he paid the right amount of taxes last year therefore making it AGC?

It doesn't know what it's talking about. The big winner on Super Tuesday was actually Obama, because he proved his win in Iowa wasn't a fluke. In a sense, Obama's vote pickups on Super Tuesday were the beginning of the end for Clinton in the '08 primary. My guess is that ol' Gary had this one ready to roll days in advance, and his syndicate didn't give a poo poo. That said- if he obviously drew his SWEET HILLARY SLAM far in advance, what excuse does McCoy have for it looking like poo poo?

quote:

A recent oversight report from the Special Inspector General for Afghanistan Reconstruction stated that “the Taliban now controls more territory than at any time since 2001. Vicious and repeated attacks in Kabul this quarter shook confidence in the national-unity government. A year after the Coalition handed responsibility for Afghan security to the Afghan National Defense and Security Forces (ANDSF), American and British forces were compelled on several occasions to support ANDSF troops in combat against the Taliban.”

In light of Obama’s end to formal American combat operations in 2014, the Taliban is stronger than ever in Afghanistan.

Tech companies tend to be more restrict on dress codes now but have an ID badge (sometimes on a lanyard, if you're a colossal nerd) that opens doors and whatever.

I mean it is normal because the easiest way for an employer to handle the brackets thing is to... well, not handle it at all and just deduct all the tax and let the IRS fix it come tax season. This method contributes to people really not understanding tax brackets, incidentally.

I don't know if I'd place people who try to be nice about their homophobic views as analogous to the KKK unless the KKK had a lot more milquetoast, just to the conservative side of moderate, wardens of the status quo back in the day.

The point of the quote is that the KKK was doing less to hold back equality than overwhelming fygm apathy from the majority of unaffected people, and that the oh I don't hate gays but... crowd is a similar problem in that conceptual framework.
