We ask her now! Come on this show, Kamala, we’ll have a box of wine!

Greg’s none-too-subtle, weird, and baseless jab at Kamala as a supposed drunk, dressed up as an earnest invite for a genuine interview… you’re totally a legitimate journalist, dude. No idea why your entire network keeps copping out of responsibility for the defamation and dangerous lies in your broadcasts by saying that you’re merely an entertainment platform and no reasonable person would believe your blatant fabrications and criminal negligence. Clearly you are a bastian of good faith reporting and journalistic integrity.

And giving Trump gonorrhea. Allegedly.

… but I don’t.

… but I don’t.

IN WHAT FUCKING UNIVERSE IS THAT EVEN REMOTELY, METAPHORICALLY, GENEROUSLY TRUE!? The man cannot open his mouth without generally talking about how everyone on the left is actively, intentionally and malevolently destroying America, and that’s when he is not actively calling for his highly volatile MAGA followers to do unethical, and even illegal, things to ensure “they don’t steal this election”. His followers break into and flood the Capital Building leaving police officers in their wake, conspire to kidnap governors, break into Nancy Pelosi’s home and beat her husband to within an inch of his life when they don’t find her, not to mention all the general violence and hate of those like the Proud Boys, the Patriot Front, and other white Christian nationalists. The idea that anyone could ever possibly see you as innocent in, at minimum, your rhetoric is mistifying.

I didn’t say I had evidence. I said I got a feeling from the way he phrased his story. I also said I might be wrong.

I’ve said multiple times that the violence was not okay and there was no excuse for it. No matter how much pda happened. I have also said multiple times that they are absolutely not to blame for the violence assuming neither threw the first punch. I only suggested that he might have downplayed a single detail in his retelling about what caused the employee to talk to them in the first place.

I read his words. It was his words that made me doubt. He and his partner were the victims here, for sure. But that doesn’t mean that they are being honest about the preamble to the altercation. But if not fully believing a person about every single detail of their story, if not taking every single assumption that they made as gospel makes me homophobe because they happen to be gay, sure. Whatever.

I assumed it happened because of the “heated verbal argument” he said his partner started. Words get exchange, tempers rise and fists come out. Again, I said I may be wrong. Maybe they were all homophobes that wanted to get a few licks in on some gay guys. Or maybe they were all assholes and turned a request into an argument into a fist fight. I don’t know. I just think his retelling of the story seems suggest there was more to it.

Lol. Dude, I’m a full on socialist pro-choice pro-LGBT rights progressive. Feel free to check my post history. I couldnt give a fuck if two dudes are kissing. I’m not excusing the violence towards these guys. It’s not OK. There is a point, though, where macking on one another in public becomes a spectacle, gay, straight, pan or whatever. It is not homophobia for a business owner to ask you to cut it out if you are being excessive in front of other guests just because you are gay. I’ve seen straight couples make asses out of themselves in public too. It’s dumb. Asking that to stop in your restaurant is OK. What happened after is absolutely not. Is that clearer to you?

There is never a reason for either party to escalate a verbal disagreement to a physical one, but I would be very shocked if the PDA were as innocent as they imply it was for someone to walk out from behind the counter and calmly ask them to knock it off. There are always two sides to every altercation, and even his description, “kind of briefly - we began to kiss” sounds like downplaying the degree of the kissing going on. It sounds like there was a good chance that it was a pretty excessive makeout session. They really seem to want to make it a homophobia thing, and maybe it was… whether the employees’ line for excessive would have been the same for a straight couple as for this gay one, I don’t know. But I wouldn’t be shocked if the request was at least arguably reasonable for a business that doesn’t need people sucking face at the counter. Or maybe I’m wrong and the entire restaurant staff in left-leaning Washington DC are just a bunch of homophobes. Idk.
