The astute observer points a finger at EVERYONE here (by making the subject line PLURAL). 1.) Only ONE person posted the 'joke', and maybe two or three responded to it. Therefore, not ALL leicaphiles are homophobic. It may have been an error to post the 'joke' in the first place, but likewise an error to cast us all as a bunch of insensitive, and politically incorrect, louts. 2.) It is only STUPID to post the offending 'joke' AGAIN and AGAIN (in its' entirety) with your commentary. If the joke is that offensive, clipping it as part of a further discussion only extends its' life (here and elsewhere). There are many groups on the Net that are more appropriate venues for your continued discussion.
