Reply #58: but so are "apeshit", "crazy", "mental" [View All]

like I said, names are just names. I honestly do not give a shit what anybody calls it. What matters to me is that I (and other psychos) are not treated like 2nd class citizens because of something that is quite possibly biological and/or hereditary.

And I'm glad to hear you don't throw things or hector your friends. I actually have a lot of vegetarian/vegan friends, and was even a vegetarian myself for a couple years. And unfortunately, I know a lot of very "militant" AR people who end up alienating potential supporters, just because of their confrontational, humorless attitude.

Some people think that violent (physical or verbal) confrontation is the only way to get your message across. I don't agree with that-- and quite frankly I resent those who think that they can change my mind about an issue by trying to shout me down.
