You've openly admitted you want them denied the right to be married, and the benefits that go with it. I didn't accuse you of anything you didn't say yourself.

I get called a bigot, repeatedly, and *I'm* the one making things personal? That's just rich.

I've seen people using a broad brush and using "bigot" as a general term for everyone who would deny these rights. I don't think in those terms, but you do seem to enjoy making it about you.

I never said that you're attacking me. I said you're accusing me of something I never said and that I was kind of surprised that you'd do it. Sorry if you think that's getting personal.

I didn't say you were getting personal. I said that sooner or later you make every argument about yourself, and accuse others of making it personal.

I'm not sure who that would be. From an objective viewpoint your responses have been no more and no less antagonistic that your opponents. You come across as just as hot as you think they do.
