Dan Savage on the bible at High School Journalism convention
It might be if he actually used any bullying tactics but I didn't see any. I find it more ironic that supposed student journalists would walk out without listening to whatever he had to say no matter how distasteful they found his message.>> ^longde:
Ironic that this anti-bullying advocate uses bully tactics against some mere students. There are better ways to get your message across.

Dan Savage on the bible at High School Journalism convention
Much like Jesus*, today I am feeding the uneducated masses. So go on, troll, enlighten me. Do tell how what he said was offensive.
Was it a philosophical difference? Do you feel it should it be ok for the religious to abuse gay people? Or own slaves? Or sell their daughters? Or anyone of the hundreds of batshit insane bullshit (and I make no apologies for calling it that) rules that populate the bible?
Or maybe it's a factual dispute. You feel that those nasty, hurtful things aren't actually in the bible (they are).
Possibly you're offended by that t-shirt? Really Dan... come on. You're supposed to be the one with the fashion sense but that colour is all wrong for you....
Anyway, I digress. I await your response with
greatsomenot very much enthusiasm.>> ^TangledThorns:
I'm not Christian or religious and I recognize what Dan Savage said was offensive. Savage is the classic liberal bigot.
*Obviously I am way more awesome than Jesus. For a start, I'm 34.

Dan Savage on the bible at High School Journalism convention
He calls bullshit, which is shorthand for a long and complicated polite sentence. The rest is declarative remarks, isn't it?
Since when did clearly stating a point of view become bullying? Especially when the thing you are complaining about has been used to demonize and attack you for your entire life?
I don't see any bullying.

Dan Savage on the bible at High School Journalism convention
I don't think they were forced to attend anything. This was at the Seattle National Journalism Convention, and anyone who showed up was there voluntarily. Which makes their walking out possibly planned and even more rude.

>> ^BoneRemake:
Look at all the closed minds ensuring they stay closed.
FUCK THEM INDEED.
Maybe barreling into the 'bible is retarded' was not the best way to approach the subject. And I'm guessing the majority of those who walked out weren't offended about what he was saying and just saw the opportunity to gtfo of an assembly that they had been forced to attend.

I don't see any bullying tactics. What I see is someone saying that a Book written by people some 1600 years ago isn't right, and you shouldn't believe it. He didn't hit anyone, he didn't laugh in anyones face, they're out in the hall together standing up for what they believe in. Dan Savage is standing up for what he believes in, which both are allowed to do.
Your definition of bullying might be a bit too broad.

Are those people walking out because of what he's saying?
[Edit: Oh, yeah they did...fuck 'em.]
How dare you make such accusations! It's not their fault they put out the taco bar while someone was speaking...it was a simple planning error!
