    Trying to "turn some feathers" probably isn't a clever idea.

    By posting that comment as well, had anybody actually made a negative comment about your sexuality, it would have been you yourself that sent it off topic by trying to "turn some feathers". As you can see the people on this forum aren't homophobic as it seems you expected us to be.

    Omg, it was to show how off topic the thread got and apparently still is. Not to say your all homophobes.<-- lol that word makes me laugh. Silly word.

    My association with lush has nothing to do with the topic, but that subject keeps coming and causing slaps my way.
    I've already asked to close the thread so I can post another one with lots of links to info in regards to the tar sands and better sources with lush included because that's how I first heard of it.
    My hubby went to a meeting in Canada that gave him and I a whole slew of info about what's going on up there
    Its sad. I really wish people could see what happened to the land they destroyed for a dieing resource that is causing more harm with its good
    Good being a source of something we rely too heavily on

    Hate to bump a thread like this when it turns sour, but I need to comment...

    What's happened over 60 posts and 7 pages of discussion here is exactly the reason why nothing changes in the world.

    Pulling tar out of rock and sand is absolutely insane. There isn't a soul on the planet that is properly educated on the issue that would disagree. The OP presented an important topic for people to be aware of. If you have a problem with the group that made the stupid YouTube video, go do some real research from someone that DOES have credibility to you. It's not a freak, isolated issue. It's a huge, huge deal. How can there possibly be 60 posts squabbling about the only detail of this thread that doesn't ultimately matter or influence the point of discussion?

    Excuse me if I don't use the sensationalistic propaganda video that Lush made to educate myself on this issue...

    Public posting, sorry if you don't think anyone should post on a public forum.

    To the OP, oh I see. You're trolling. Nice. YOU brought up the fact you use the products, that your boyfriend/husband works there, that you are gay, etc etc.

    No one here attacked you over anything, much less over any of that. People pointed out the group you're supporting is anti-reptile and that they wouldn't support such.

    For the record, yes I do not use companies or products that I disagree with. Does that mean I'm attacking you again? I don't support groups that are against things I believe in. Is that an attack and off-topic?

    If HSUS donates to MakeAWish, I'm not linking one of their videos on this site! If PETA supports a Military group, I'm not linking their video on this site! It's akin to posting a link to THIS site on a rat pet site. It's poor form.

    Of course, the messiah complex means you'll find this a attack on poor innocent trolling you too I suppose. You choose to support a group that is trying to take away our rights to own reptiles as pets. That's YOU and what YOU'VE stated. It's not an attack to state facts that you yourself brought up, that you yourself typed and posted.

    Thats what happens on PUBLIC forums if you dont like it then you shouldnt read any of the other topics because almost everyone goes off topic some how. I agree that I definately will not support a group by watching there video who supports taking away our rights to own reptiles. All Im saying is if the OP wanted people to listen a better source of information should have been presented. Like I said before he might as well posted a HSUS video.

    I don't care about the group.
    TOPIC OF TAR SANDS
    THATS WHAT THE POINT IS.
    Don't like lush? Start a thread and post about it there.
    If you honestly could care less about what's going on with the topic of the tar sands,
    Than by all means,
    Explain why.
