Yup... you stole his identity and now he's in grave danger.

[Russell Kanning]

cant he think of himself as part of a different group?

[Tom Sawyer]

Shame on you you Dale... you sure have done a lot of damage to this poor fella(?)

The LGBT label was created to include everyone who is non heterosexual.

Why isn't this guy mad at the 'Hunger Games' people?  They have flaming people killing non flaming people.  I'll bet hat movie is all about the violent gay revolution.

I linked her comment on a forum for trans people and every single response so far has been that she's being ridiculous.

Group think/collectivist... You have to run with the herd, that others assign you to.

Bloods and Crips, red state-blue state, gay-straight, white-black etc

[Russell Kanning]

well if there is only one looney .... I guess you can just laugh

That's insane.  "Flaming" isn't even a LGBT-specific label.

I could say that someone is a "flaming Commie," which would mean that he is an unashamed and outspoken proponent of communism, not anything about his sexuality.

While it's often used in an LGBT context, that's by no mean a universal assignment for the label.  If "flaming" is an insult, then it's a mild one, at best.  Ergo, getting bent out of shape over it as if it were a serious slur is pretty ridiculous.

Flame'n Libertarian.

I was thinking Maineshark could be a flaming debater
