So what are we missing here then? I've seen nothing to indicate a lack of respect for women thus far (I did say I haven't read much on the subject of women here - I tend to avoid those boring flamewars like the plague). And he only shows the respect for religion and conservatives that they usually deserve, of course.
With all due respect, for a moderator, you certainly don't seem to have seen the generalizations he makes. What a strange post. The first half of your sentence had so little relevance to the second. Anyway, do I need to ask you the same question again?

How about the one I quoted, is that enough for you?
What's the problem there? Your taking that post and immediately comparing him to Todd Akin is absurd and probably insulting.

Well he's a FF on everything that doesn't have to do with women...
^ Especially religion. And I'll admit that I haven't even read any of his posts on women to know what's got everybody so butthurt about him. It was a shame we didn't get to hang out when he came to town a few weeks ago.

Christian Protestant (Seventh-day Adventist, though I'm considering possibly becoming a Seventh Day Baptist.)
You're not Jewish? What was all that talk about not going to Record Store Day because it fell on your 'Sabbath'? Shouldn't that be Sunday, not Saturday? He's a Seventh-day Adventist. On what day did God rest? Jeez, you religious folk keep finding new and exciting ways to confuse the hell out of everybody else.

Seeking leniency from the jury during closing arguments, Cook quoted Shakespeare: “The quality of mercy is not strained. It droppeth as the gentle rain from heaven, upon the place beneath. It is twice blessed: It blesseth him that gives and him that takes.”
Cook started to attribute his quote to Shakespeare when he caught himself.
“I realized that I was in Dade County, Ga.,” Cook says. “The people of Dade County are good but simple people. They don’t know who the hell William Shakespeare is. They may think he’s some guy named Bill from Tennessee, or worse from Alabama, and sentence my client to death.”
So Cook cleared his throat and told jurors, “And that’s from Song of Solomon in the Bible.” The jurors all nodded in reverence.

Apparently someone dropped the f-bomb on WCVB and the reporter began to apologize and then said, "You know what, it's 2 Am and bullets have been fired."
This is how normal people behave, you see. What's your point? Societal rules against swearing are usually suspended in times of great stress. Just something to think about, that's all. I didn't say otherwise. You seem to be insinuating that I disapproved of it or something. This really isn't the time or place for this discussion, but all I'll say is that you're apparently missing the point in a quite dramatic way.
