There are 2 kinds of people I can't understand.. Actually, I just hate them. Closed-minded people and Hypocrites. More often then no, these people come together into one.

I consider myself an open minded person. I'm not into a lot of things, but I'm okay with a person who is. As long as they don't try to force their view onto me, or they don't hurt anybody else.

Now 2 examples have recent brought this to my mind. One person is just closed-minded. He states his political views on his intro. It basically comes down to "I'm a capitalist, if you don't agree with me, you're trying to take from me, and I don't like you" No I've known him for years, and He's pretty true to his words. If you don't agree with him, there will be hell to pay. There is no "Let's change the subject" there is no "Let's agree to disagree". Nope.. And it's pretty sad, cause he was a pretty nice guy when I first met him.

Now the other person on my radar, you may disagree with me on this, but this kinda upsets me. After recent events concerning Gay Marrage, and it's banning, thre is alot of issue to gay rights. It's a grou of people who are denied rights because it makes some people feel uncomfortable. Now here on FA, i read the journal of someone who has a problem with someone posting, well, basically cub-porn. And in their words He "Just wants him off of FA" Yes, rules are rules, so as far as I know this person is gone from FA, but there is a sense of justice in me that feels... well confused. Art is Art. If his art was truly disturbing, like say, Children being ripped apart by a hyper, blood and guts showing, or being raped while stabbed by a knife.. Well okay, there might be some issue of.. well.. worry. But the example he said was "a little boy and a dildo". I don't think that's out of the ordinary. Now, also, I'd understand if this person were using real life models, or doing these things in reality. That's not Cool. But this is art, and fantasy. It's about releasing fantasies that will never happen in real life. Drawing, seeing so that we can imagine that we can be anything, from a twinky, beautiful, canine with human features, or and 7 foot tall hermaphrodite with 7 DDD breasts and a 20 foot cock!.. or 2..

But this person has decided that... The world should have to accept his gay relationship, and get over their uncomfortableness of him making out with another guy....... But this person who is making this art he disagrees with.. He shouldn't have to be inconvienced by even having the option to look at it.

I remember when FA first opened. After being kicked from SHeezy Art, or Y!Gallery, cause they were uncomfortable with our Furry porn, or Porn in general, and we thought they were so evil, for not accepting our fetish. Then FA, FOUNDED ON "Freedom of art" decideds to Ban a certain art type, because.. again.. it makes them uncomfortable.. I just realized that as I wrote that.. actually.

But I remember when FA first opened, and I didn't want to join because on the search list was Vore, Inflation, Macro... and these were things that was on a drop-down list as a Standard search feature. Hell t still boggles my mind that I can search for those mentioned fetishes, but I can't search by artist name! You know, this did squick me. But it was MY choice not to join. I didn't say the site couldn't exsist, I didn't dissuede others from joining, heck, i'm not some great artist that denied my fans my art work. I just Chose not to post. I continued to post to Y! Gallery. For no other reason then the Community there was of Artists, not furries. So It was Much more friendly. There is much more variance in art, which is amazing since all subjects need to be male. But the idea of Freedom for ME is human nature. It's what the US was Founded on. Our country was founded on the principal of Freedom, Religious Freedom, specifically. That's why all our leaders must be Christian. And now we see them trying to write Christian fundimental morals into law. Our Money says "In God We Trust" and our new president, must be sworn in on a Christian Bible.

But My views are my own views. You are more then welcome to disagree, it'd be awesome if you did agree. But I prefer to debate views, Not argue. I prefer something that says "I understand your view, but respectfully feel you're full of shit..." I kid... But you see what I mean.
