Quote:Originally posted by AgentRouka: ... how was this bullying? They had a friggin' dialogue on the matter and preference for chicken over rejecting the restaurant's politics won out. That's not bullying. That's the opposite of bullying. Emma Karlen needs to get a dictionary and spend a bit of her time reading it.

Quote:Originally posted by AgentRouka: That's not intimidation! They wanted something, went to the appropriate place to address it, were rejected in their proposal. End of story. Intimidation is something entirely else. Intimidation doesn't use a representative body to make decisions based on majority preference and then accepts the result. This is a big non-story.

I was gonna make a similar reply over in the " Obama's a Commie" thread, but you said it better than I could. The dictionary these people , including Rap, use doesn't match the one I use. And they never let go-- Michelle Obama's not proud of the country quote was, what, 5 or 6 years ago. It's still being taken out of context, treated as literal truth, not the hyperbole it was. As to being a Leninist, there isn't much evidence of that. And while they can dismiss the Chick-Fil-A guy's argument as being long since disproven, they won't extend the same courtesy to anybody who disagrees with them, just keep bringing the same stuff up again and again.

Quote:Originally posted by Magonsdaughter: No, really, look at what you are supporting. You are calling protest and in the end democratic processes ie voting, 'bullying' behaviour. You don't think that the students had any right to request the removal of whatever that dreadful food place is... If they were protesting about a Mosque, would you call it 'bullying' behaviour, or is that just how we define what we don't agree with these days.
