I'm so sick of hearing I want "special rights". What hypocrisy. [View all]

I'm formulating the airtight responses to this melodramatic confabulation of RW'ers I argue with on some of their home turf sites. It's important to do, DU'ers-- I've turned several younger readers around from the vitriol their Fox-Noize mesmerized parents have brainwashed them with, had responses from some of them that complimented the "liberal's" matter-of-fact demeanor and ability to far out-logic the vitriolic and purely emotional BS.
I welcome ideas about this, because turning the table around on these bastards makes them sound extra-bigoted: that there certainly is no "special right" more "special" than attempting to change the rule of law to restrict rights of those who don't measure up to a bigot's moral yardstick.
The best bullcrap they "fight" this with is selected biblical passages, there's no getting through to the sort. It's not the point.
It's that children are reading this too, and realizing as they come of age that the bigoted nonsense... is just that.
