    I think what everyone is trying to tell you is that rating an original post off topic is silly and worthy of ridicule. Rather than trying to defend doing it you might be better off not doing it at all.

    You have the most posts in this thread and haven’t addressed the topic in OP once. I’d say you’re pretty uncomfortable.

    So perhaps it’s your team who is trying to control the way people are allowed to rate posts.
    Noted.
    Now I’m feeling uncomfortable.

    Attempted murder a death sentence? That seems absurd. So by inference, you must think *all* murder and intentional death cases should be “death sentence”? Seems pretty crazy, especially considering attempted murder can sometimes be subjectively charged (or charges withheld). Not even all murders are the same, look at that NY subway incident. I have no doubt that guy was in the wrong. Do I think he should face death? Hell no. In a case like that I could buy manslaughter or unintentional homicide.

    Now as this guy apparently had terrorism + hate crime + mass shooting motives, I tend to agree all that could/should be death penalty even though he failed in his “mission”. If we are lucky he will die within his 18 year term.

    I’m sure he’ll find himself being someone’s boyfriend in prison. He will probably enjoy it.

    Did you think it’s perhaps because the topic is a non-topic and therefore the off-topic rating was the most interesting part of the thread.
    I do.

    And he gave you bacon on your post. He apparently thinks shooting gay people is something a normal person would do.

    I just double checked and this proved accurate. You have the option to literally not respond or post a rating.

    Badge of Honor! If that poster disagrees with anything, you know you are definitely on the RIGHT side of the topic/thread. It is ZERO coincidence that poster did it on an LGTBQ thread. He doesn't realize by giving out so many, it's become a joke and lost it's actual purpose on here. Or better yet, if it gives out a negative rating, then you are 99.99999% on the right side of said topic. Consider it a stamp of approval.

    I think you’ve been uncomfortable for quite some time. You need to take up a hobby, or maybe learn to play an instrument to relieve your anxiety. We’re trying to help you here.

    The real question is what is more lame…rating op off topic or trying to silence a poster for sharing an opinion by using the rating.
    I think we all know the answer…you lose again.

    Hopefully the anti-LGBTQ media and the political figures who spew anti-LGBTQ rhetoric don’t radicalize another nut job to repeat these actions.

    Thin skinned like the rest of your team I see.
    How could my rating bother you to the point that you felt compelled to write an entire paragraph about it.
    I’m impressed.

    Bothered? I embrace it. I took the power of ratings away from you. I made it into a JOKE. As you can see, a lot of other posters feel the same. You dealt out so many negative ratings that you turned yourself into a caricature. Congrats.

    Lots of folks just like him? Wanting to rid their town of LGBTQ people by killing them?

    These people just need to mind their own damn business and leave others alone.

    Unfortunately, opportunists like DeSantis feed the hate consuming these disturbed people.
