Just the facts...




Can anyone guess what's funny about legislation banning gay marriage? Give up? Nothing. Nothing is funny about that. I used to think if I grew up in the '60's would I be on the right side of the civil rights argument? I mean I assume so, because I believe that all people are truly created equal...however, social mores are what form most of what people think and who knows how I would have turned out; now I know. Not allowing civil unions (for those zany right wing bible thumpers out there...) is an affront to the civil liberties of gay people. It straight up, no holds barred hateful. I resent being held hostage to the beliefs of people who follow ANY 2000 year old book. Who are you to come into my home, and tell me or mine, what we can or cannot do? I can see IF, I gave you that power, If I went to your church...but I don't. So you have no say over how I live my life. Let's get something straight, I'm not gay...but this issue is so stupid when you lay it out on the table and look at the facts. People don't walk around saying "NIGGER" anymore, you know why? Because it's not acceptable on any level...ok, maybe when Dr. Dre says it. Do they still think it? Probably, but, the majority has made a concerted effort to say "That shit, aint gonna fly." So, here we are, with a black man in the White House and now there's a new group of people to be persecuted...albeit in a different way. If the people who opposed gay marriage let dogs loose, or sprayed them with firehoses, it might look a little different. It might evoke some of those horrible scene from the 60's.

Let's hold this little mirror I have up, and let's take a good look. Let's take Jesus, what would Jesus say to the persecution of anybody...especially those perceived as sinners. Depends on which testament you prescribe to. Old Testament says they should be killed...also says we shouldn't eat pork and all people are derived from the same 2 people. New Testament says love the sinner, hate the sin. Where do you think Jesus would lie on this issue? He may not like the action, but he certainly wouldn't hold a sign up that says: " God hates fags!"
These kids are going to grow up, knowing what it feels like to dislike someone and not understand why. They'll think it's because Mommy and Daddy say Jesus hates fags, the reality is; Mommy and Daddy hate fags. Jesus has nothing to do with it.

I think on this one, God should stay in his Holy Tower...with that guy.
I guess there's one thing I can agree with anti-gay marriage people on...we'll all be better off, if we leave each other alone. Here's my parting question: Why are you so interested in what's going on in someone else's bedroom? Do you think your missing something?

Some people say it's an abomination, or it's gross to be gay...have any of these people looked at THEIR partners? Dude, don't throw any rocks...seriously, you'll be homeless.

I guess I'm a fag enabler...I kinda like the way that sounds.


These people need to get laid and shut up.
