im not trying to convice anyone of anything...my thing is leave these people alone...its not my business and its not yours...judge ye not be judge...its not right to treat homosexuals like they less than because they live an alternative lifestyle and you think they een going to heaven...newsflash there are more atheist than there are Christian fundamentalst Bahamians...all the hindus and muslims and whatever other religions out there can outnumber our population by 100% and still there are more to count...its about tolerance with me...respecting people for who they are and who they show you to be not because you dont agree with how their living.
and yes I wade in pettiness and call homosexuals flaming faggots and sissy snakes and a few more choice words that I wont go further into detail with...so what! as Im sure they have unpleasantries to say about my pretty "fish" tail because some of um secretly want to be me...they cant do anything about it they certainly wont beat me! I always have a weapon on me and I will mace them! but they probably will curse me out and I will laugh my tail off in they face...yinna know they could use them fifty pound word.



Mace dont do anything man. If you mace a flamming homo you betta run.

I don't think I attacked anyone personally. I don't remember addressing anyone specifically. Regardless, I won't apologize for being playful. Just so, I decided not to retaliate because if anyone took offense then they are much too sensitive for their own good.
The way I look at it, I have nothing to hide. Nothing to be ashamed about. Matter of fact, I'm probably the only person here using their real name. So when I speak, there's no denying my responsibility for what I say.

I took it very personal sorry to say. As I am grouped with homosexuals by the general public... Not to mention I have family and friends that are homosexual...
As for hiding you are not even in the Bahamas so you don't have anything to worry about hiding. So what if there are those that like to be anonymous they are free to post their personal opinion... I know it would be nice to put a face to a name and there is a lot as a group we could actually if we could get together but it is what it is. The universe will still unfold as it should...

I already posted my photo on this site. Its still there. I posted my parent's name, grandparent's name, schools I went to -- please, you act like Bahamians living in the Bahamas are the only ones to view this site. I'm evidence to the contrary. You act like Bahamians don't travel. Just be quiet. You know what I say is true but I guess to give yourself a purpose in life you have to contest everything I say. Just to prove point..

Now let's see you contradict that.

just b/c some of us dont use our give names that doesnt mean you cant figure out who we are...Ive given enough info about myself so if and when any of you meet me...youd know exactly who I am. I talk the way I write...Im straight no chaser...and your name is a very common name...it could be 100 a yinna but it will only be one of me ;)


Even after I posted my pictures you could find 100 Mikki Forbes' that look exactly like me?? I must've been cloned.

Oh, and I wasn't blaming rap music. Just pointing out the hypocrisy of black people in general. Its bad to make fun of homosexuals, but its cool to make fun of women, blacks, whites, the handicapped, mentally challenged, even christians...but the minute you say something about homosexuals the world ends...

If I tell you that I find being called "black" insulting, would that change anything??

...all I remeber is that your a ball plate sepia toned brother...dont get it twisted......ive seen much better...notjhing special about you...your forgettable...and please you do have a very common name...get over yourself

and the ignorance in the latter half of your post is astounding...or maybe you should have worded your statement in another way...you shouldnt single black people out... you are wrong by making that generalized assumption...you will find that other races are found guilty of the same negative offenses...and last time I check Bahamians arent the ones singing those rap lyrics...so take up your beef with the rappers and the record companies who promote such filth....we have other fish to fry not this insignificant foolishness you running on with...you are wrong!

Bahamians sing rap lyrics all the time. What world you living in? So Taf tell me is he wrong simply because you disagree with him and he pissed you off, or can you think up some other argument. Your slash and burn tactics only make you look less credible.

Wow. There's a lot of venom in your tone.

1. I didn't claim to be special. How did you even get on that tangent?? I said I posted my photo and my name -- how can you deny that?? How can you even construe anything threatening about it?? I didn't say I was anything special. If you want to argue for no good reason then have fun by your lonesome. But this silliness about me being nothing special is childish. I think you should get over yourself.

2. Again, you are creating arguments where there are none. I'm beyond astounded as to why you'd go off on this silliness. Anyway, I'll do us both a favor. I'll put you on my ignore list and you can do the same. That way you won't have to blow anything I say out of proportion or turn it into something that it is not. I'm not that interested in arguing with people I don't know over their need to misconstrue what I've said. Nice talking to you.

Gal Taff you does kill me! I aint gonna lie! :bouncy:

In response to what you said in the beginning of this post though...you are right..no one should be treated less than human for any reason, being gay, being whatever...but not being into that lifestyle doesnt automatically mean that you are treating that person like "less than" either - thats all Im saying.

Some people on here for instance..will post whole essays on ya if you say hetero-yes, gay-no..but they think nothing of slamming your faith, or trying to belittle you because of it. The same people who want accpetance are the same ones who are meting out disrespect and intolerance in varying degrees.

I will agree mikkis post was insulting actually very insulting. But to wrongs don't make a right. But yes we are only human to. Mikki I think knows better and I have wonder if this is him posting as I don't remember him being this insulting.
He knows full well there are more str8s infected with aids than GLBT. He knows if all GLBT are rounded up and put on an island, That it will not rid the Bahamas of GLBT as more are born everyday... He also knows that given an Island like Harbour Island or even Andross it would not be long before it is the best island to be on in the Bahamas.
You mean cause in 20-30yrs it will be a deserted island?:shhh:

Wow. I missed Nationbuilder's post.

I agree wholeheartedly. People love to come and drizzle urine on your faith. Always pointing out the bad things about a handful of so-called christians. The minute you start pointing the finger at their own short-comings they call you homophobic.

With all of the homosexuals with loose butts running around Fox Hill prison you'd think it would've been paradise if homosexuality was so great.

Now thats some logic for you
GLBT don't reproduce so we would die off. Only problem we come from heterosexuals. And the more heterosexual having kids the more GLBT. So the Island would grow in population even with out the kids of the GLBT. Yes GLBT do have kids to.
