Ok, I'll bite. What does the " = " sign mean?

I thought I had been [strike]subjected[/strike] [strike]exposed[/strike] enlightened to just about every colored ribbon and symbol out there, but that one doesn't ring a bell...

Equality. Folks who believe everyone should be treated equally. Radical idea, I know.

So do they believe we are all equal except for that one douche?

DOUCHE

I'm not sure I'm on board with this. Philosophically I fully believe that all persons are created equal (so far as inalienable rights go; I'd never be so naive as to believe that everyone is ACTUALLY created equal...the bell curve and simple observation illustrates otherwise), but there sure are a bunch of douche bags who, through their own efforts, deserve to be treated as the they prove themselves to be later in life. The thought is appealing, though. Is that what the "=" really is supposed to represent, or is it code-speak for some particular cause or movement that feels they are being treated unfairly in today's society?

We are all created equal. After we get created some folks just can't resist being a screwup.

Ah Eddie, you said it before me.
God creates everyone equal. When we are born, we are a blank slate. It's the way we are (or aren't) raised and the choices we make that make us unequal.

If you really think about it, everyone is a conservative. They just draw their line of what conservative is in a different place.

At one point everything from long hair, rock and roll, and tattoos have been taboo. Now its homosexuality. Tomorrow, who knows, pedophiles and cannibalism. Its all about where you draw your line.

I loves me some "long pork"

As for Cannibalism, I'm a true tree-hugging recycler! A person is like 60-70% meat!

Shhh you're going to make someone mad by calling them liberal. Their brains are liable to esplode.

I didn't know equality was a liberal idea. Does that mean conservatives are out to kill everyone? Figures since they love guns so much.

I have no idea what "they" believe. I didn't click on Longbow's link because I find such things tedious. I'm just answering the other question asked. I don't believe that everyone is equal either, but I think that we all deserve equal treatment under the eyes of the law and the general society. I'm not afraid to express that sentiment either. I can think someone is a "douche" but still want them to receive fair treatment. I can think someone is a criminal and still want them to receive a fair trial. I can think someones religious beliefs are pretty obnoxious and still want them to be able to worship. And before the inevitable infantile cries of "why should THEY receive special treatment" that usually result from these discussions, I believe that Pastor Neimoller's famous quote expresses my views on the matter pretty well.

The rainbow and = have traditionally been used by the gay rights movement. Typically, that cause has been championed by the Liberals. I believe that, plus being in Bloomington and on brands of car that seem to be favorites of Liberals around here, is how the OP came to that conclusion.

 

[printcraft]

They are angry with the great O because he has not gone far enough with his policies.

Also, any continuation or failure to end some of the Bush era policies from the big O are making them feel betrayed.

Still in iraq and stan, gitmo still open, etc.

Obaba's learning it's easier to aggitate than govern.

Wanting to be the POTUS should be an automatic disqualification on mental fitness grounds...

While I didn't agree with some of what Dick Cheney wrote/said the other day, I did agree with him on that - that "O" is finding out that some of what GWB did and some of the policies he implemented were the right thing, even if they were unpopular with those not sitting in the chair in the Oval Office. That it's a lot easier to sit in the Senate and pick nits than to be the one in the hot seat.

Yes, it means "equality," but it is used by gays almost exclusively (replaced the rainbow).
