They don't want special rights, they want equal rights.

That's like saying 'I can't believe blacks want special rights like the same pay rate as whites, and to be able to live in white neighborhoods.'

Why do import people need SCC, Import Tuner, Honda Tuner, Turbo, and Super Street?

Can't just one magazine cover all the rice?

 

And a lot more gays are still in the closet than you probably think. They don't want to face the bigotry and predjudism that people like you throw at them.
Don't be shocked if one of your friends or people you admire is homosexual.

It's not the "in" thing for a guy to be homosexual. It's "in" for girls to have bisexual experiences (of course, why not, it turns guys on ) but for a guy to come out of the closest he is risking everything.

No one should have to hide love. Whether its a black guy with a white girl or an asian guy with a hispanic guy.

 

I've cited information relating to the fact that homosexuality is not a choice. Despite all your talk on facts, you still haven't shown me any facts regarding your opinion.

One of my friends in high school came out and his nose required 12 stiches and was broken in three places by some homophobes. How in is that?

How would you feel if you had to hide what you were, 24/7?

 

well said fastball...but kinda OT I think.
I totally agree though. damn liberals!

 

Simply because something has been done for a long time, that does not condone its continued practice. Society moves forward. I see very little negative impact to equal rights based on race, and I certainly don't think gender based equal rights would seriously harm our society.

How much intestinal fortitude do you think it takes to come out and tell the world that you are something they hate? A lot more than it takes to spout useless hate and hide behind tradition.

 

wow, i felt like i wasted a minute of my life reading that.
WHAT IN THE WORLD does that have to do with someone being homosexual?
And i'm sure many guys who your grandfather fought with were gay.

You sound like you are 60 years old. Look around you man- there are intelligent and hard working kids these days. But they are kids.
I doubt your grandfather was such a strong, moral, well to do 15 year old.

Deal with it- the youth of EVERY generation has always caused problems and has always been "a bad generation".
This is entirely off topic- why the hell did you bring this argument into the thread?

 

I'd like to see homosexuals just try to survive the trials and hardships of the depression. They'd forget all about their partners when it came time to figure out if they'll eat at all today, or if their money is safe in the bank. So you want to throw out tradition, eh? Well it's that same tradition that you want to throw out which gives all your homosexual friends the right to be gay. They just don't think or don't remember where it came from.

 

I'm 25, and I used that as an example of the liberal bias, and the unfortunate outcome of too much liberallism.

 

I'd think they'd be a lot better off in the depression because they wouldn't have any kids to feed.

Ask your grandfather if he ever feared for his life because of the girls he liked. Then ask him how it would have been if he had felt that way.

 

Ask all your homosexual friends if they thank their higher powers every night that people like my grandfather had to drive through mine fields and see the brutality of war everyday for four years just so they can live in relative peace. Think of the alternative if Germany had won. There'd be no such think as a homosexual. They'd be extinct.
