But Gay people don't vote against Bigoted Straight Peoples right to marriage.

Whenever you go up against someone that says "In the bible it says..." then you're kinda fucked. You vs. God, tends not to work in your favour.

Mike, stop it. "Conservatism", "Starvation"??? This is about homosexuality. The parallels don't work.
-
A lot of people base their views on homosexuality on (a)The Bible/Their Religious beliefs and (b)Their personal insecurities; yeah it's a fucking cake walk to talk people out of those.

The One and Only Angel Season 5 Thread
RavishingRickRudo replied to Steve J. Rogers's topic in Brandon Truitt
Slept from 7 to 7 after staying up for 31 hours, so I didn't get to watch it. I'll do it before LOST tonight. -
Inuit? (Does that count??)

That's what the WWE is trying to do... or at least it's what they're appearing to try and do. But much like saying "HHH is not on RAW" all night on RAW, saying "Please don't hate me because I am Arabic" is planting things in the fans' minds. The WWE isn't very good with subtle; they're too busy spelling everything out. For serious, I was actually thinking -jokingly- that they'd give him a translator ala Berlyn in WCW - they did it the other way around but still, it's a heat device and they did it right off the bat. Like Simon Dean and him calling the fans fat. Rather than a legitimate desire to help people lose weight, they just made him an asshole. I hate when the WWE does their "BOO ME NOW!" or "CHEER ME NOW!" spots. It's all so forced. Which is not to say that I totally hated the Hussan segment. I liked how they entered the shot and turned around to cut the promo, almost statesman like. Hussan has a great look, but it's not necessarily unique to the WWE, physique-wise. He had a good amount of poise and projected the words well. The manager had a good look to him as well - almost like the Arabic Harvey Whippleman... or should I say Persian... I really hope they don't do the obvious thing with him and put him with JR and the King to announce Hassans matches. I don't think I like where this is going, though. The message the WWE looks to be giving is "Being Different is Bad". When ever Hassan has his prayer, the fans will boo and his opponent will be like "what the fuck?" and JR and the King will reluctantly say things like "we _have to_ respect his religion and beliefs" while they roll their eyes. Rather than, say, having a face wrestler go up to Hassan and say "Hey man, I think it's cool to see an Arabic wrestler in the WWE. There's a lot of bad vibes goin around the world right now and it's good to see a positive side to Islam. I wouldn't mind learning some things from you, to help my understanding... if the fans boo you, shake it off man, this is the WWE, you gotta earn respect here. But whatever happens, don't be ashamed of who you are". But that would be silly and wouldn't get heat. "Derka derka derka, Muhammad Jihad" BOOOOOOOO! "I guess the WWE fans have the right to voice their opinion too, eh King?" "That's what bein American is all about!"
-
This gimmick... OFFENSIVE? No, no, no, no, no... this can't be right. The thought did occur to me while he was speaking that he wasn't speaking Arabic at all, but I just figured he was making it up.

BECAUSE MAVEN IS GOING TO BE IN EVOLUTION

Eugh, the camera cut away too early for the Tajiri thing to work... for me, at least.
-
Maven has been taking the HHH training method, so I'd say he has the smaller moveset. I hear Flair loves showing his moveset to stewardesses and they just scream and/or laugh when they see how small it is.
-
The Arab Promo was bad because they did two things they shouldn't have done: 1. Say "Praise be to Allah" really slowly and looking up to god. 2. Have the other guy translate.
-
Is he really gone from Raw when JR and King (and alle the characters on the show) continually bring him up? Even when he's gone he's the focal point of the show.
-
He's gonna FLOP! - Vince McMahon
-
Jericho is the only guy in the ring that has any ring sense. LOL.
-
"Inmates running the Asylum" FUCK, I thought we were free of the repetitive bullshit when Taboo "Revolutionary!" Tuesday was done.
-
How can HHH be gone from RAW when they keep talking about him being gone from RAW and his group gets a ton of air time... ... Oh wait... sorry... thinking outloud...
-
I think the apex was Trish saying "You may be hicks, but you're still my fans"
-
Trish saying "Essa Rrrrios" was classic.
-
That was a horrible sell-job by JR.
-
*Vince hearing the USA chant* "YES! YES! I KNEW IT! They believe he's from Georgia!!!!"
-
Lawler and 'bad plugs' just go together.
-
Why didn't they have JR say "Raw is brought to you by the Simon System..." if Simon is sponsoring Raw?
-
He will when he turns on his team and joins evolution.
-
Batista is blacker than Maven. ... Just sayin.
