Firstly, I know that I should not take these guys seriously, and secondly I did not post this to incite any kind of strife - I am just wondering what your view is on the quoted passage below. Is the person(s) who wrote this blinded by hate (given the website) or do they have a valid point?Isn't it wrong to discriminate against the furries?
No, and it's hardly discrimination. Being a "furry" is not like being a homosexual, or Jewish, or black, or blind. It is not a race, creed, or culture. The furries complain that they are being "fursecuted," [sic] and that those that dislike them are bigoted. It is insulting and belittling to those groups of people who have, and many who are still fighting for equality, rights and acceptance. People are born into their race. Their religions are sacred to them. They fight for something substantial and well deserved. Furries compare themselves to the situation of blacks or Hispanics affected by racism, and of the suffering of the Jewish people in the Holocaust. Furries are gravely mistaken if they think that dramatics and ignorance of the world around them will lessen the dislike of their strange hobbies.
