Is this legitimate reasoning?

You're right, it IS horribly homophobic and bigoted. And I'm sorry, your friend ISN'T "a pretty good guy", he's a hateful douchebag and if you were gay he'd hate you and treat you like shit, even if you were in no other way different from how you are now. You shouldn't hang around with bastards like him- I know I'd certainly refuse to have anything to do with anyone who I knew held views like that.
Also, his point is STUPID. Queen are a BAND, they play MUSIC. It's not like Freddy Mercury will rise from the grave and hump his leg if he admits to liking 'Bohemian Rhapsody'. You can hate a band or musician if they've done something to actually earn you dislike (Gary Glitter, for example, did jail time for his child porn collection, which is repulsive), but letting that affect your opinion of their music (assuming they don't let their beliefs colour their music) is plain stupid.

looks like a bass for a hippieMaster_Spartan117666 said:I'm not a big fan of it too.Aunel said:Yes it's not very humane hating, but people hate all the time for good reasons, but most of the time for no reason at all.
Just like me, I seem to hate this bassI just don't like it, for no reason at all.
I'd like your opinion of the bass I'm getting.
(not that that is a bad thing)
How does it sound, must sound like a real groove machine
although 6 strings?
I find the 6 string necks way too thick for comfort, but if you can handle it, that's awesome.
yeah the thunderbirds look awesome.Jim From Accounting said:i know what you mean about the bass thing i wanted a thunderbird and i finally tried one and just when meh and ended up with a Specter REX4Aunel said:Yes it's not very humane hating, but people hate all the time for good reasons, but most of the time for no reason at all.

and about the jazz bass I mentioned, everyone I talk to refers to it as "the" bass to have.
No, just because one person in particular is in a Band, is not a good reason to hate the Band.
He loved Queens before he discovered that the main singer was gay, and now he still likes them, he just hates ?The main singer?/gay people. It's kind of obvious what he really doesn?t like since he starts hating Queens after he finds out about the main singer.
Now that I think of it, there?s a name for hating someone or something for no other reason than it being it.

Sorry, but its any conservative who acts on his conservative believes that bothers me. I can appreciate religion but anyone who claims the title 'conservative' is hiding bigotry in his sleeve. That's not to say conservatives are bad people, but you condemn sex, other religions, other races (though this may have evolved as Christianity always tends to do) and so many other things. And do you know for what reason? Social conditioning started from a time when hating such things was 'in'. Some white Christians hated black people, and so they declared it a sin to be black. Racism died down a bit and its no longer a problem, is it?Haseo21 said:
Sorry, I'm preaching against your beliefs, that's not fair and perhaps I've simply misunderstood every conservative I've ever met (I'm open for enlightenment if you've any light to shed), but please understand that to most people conservatives seem dim in color because the radical members turn the spotlight on them, not simply because they paint the group a deeper gray.
I have some enlightenment for you alright! We are all entitled to our own thoughts and word, i dont like what you say but i'll support your right to say it. I cant say im not mad, but it makes me happy that regular people like me are n ot getting in the way of what you beleive and what you wanna say.Kurokami said:
It really isn't. I mean, it's not like your musical tastes will be changed if you find out that a singer is gay.
yea but iv met a stack of bass players that would rather use a squier and put it threw a pedalAunel said:yeah the thunderbirds look awesome.Jim From Accounting said:i know what you mean about the bass thing i wanted a thunderbird and i finally tried one and just when meh and ended up with a Specter REX4Aunel said:Yes it's not very humane hating, but people hate all the time for good reasons, but most of the time for no reason at all.

Personally, I don't care for most gays right away they receive a bad rap from me because of there sexuality but as long as they don't flaunt it I don't really care.
OT: I had the same thing happen to me once a friend of mine stopped liking a band he had loved for like a year, he had autographs galore shirts CD's and even a custom guitar to look like the main guitarist (don't ask me the band I forget) one night we were playing games and one of there songs come on and joking around I said wow these guys are gay. He said no there great I told him they were legitimately gay. He stopped liking them than and there.
