What's one of the biggest stories currently in the US? NFL players kneeling. The conservative snowflakes are melting because someone knelt. That's right, they need their safe spaces to protect them from having to experience seeing someone kneeling because it hurts their itty bitty feelings too much and makes them outraged.
In another thread at the moment, you guys are throwing a hissy because David Hogg swears too much for your delicate ears to handle. US conservatives are nothing but a bunch of easily offended snowflakes.I DENOUNCE DONALD J. TRUMP AND ALL HIS IMMORAL ACTS.

Originally posted by Starlight View PostGiven your post comes in the context of me giving examples, I'm not sure I understand the question... "ignoring the examples you just gave, can you give me examples?"
Conservatives are quite zealous about trying to make the world their safe space.
But a particularly common example of existing safe-spaces for them would be churches.
Various sub-forums on this site are also safe spaces for them.Last edited by RumTumTugger; 06-07-2018, 02:53 PM.

I very politely got up and walked over to their table (I just know my wife was thinking, "oh boy, here we go again"), and very calmly and quietly asked them to consider the fact that there's a woman and her children right behind them hearing everything they said.
One of them grumbled like I needed to mind my own business, but another of them quickly agreed they needed to tone it down, and profusely apologized.
I was neither triggered, nor ran away whimpering. I handled it like a gentleman, and they adjusted their conduct accordingly.
When we were standing at the cash register to pay, the guy who apologized walked up to me and said, "I wouldn't want my wife and kids hearing that either".The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

Looks to me that Starlight needs to invest in a Monitor since that mirror he is using isn't doing him any good.The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.
