In response to the viciousness of those without a clue, with complete
respect to all those this is about and in honor of some of the greatest
people I've met in my life so far.
No person nor government has the right to tell anyone when or whom to
love, yet here we are in an era when tolerance is supposedly at its peak
and we still have to vote for people that love each other to be
able to marry one another while still despised by most of the world.
Who's to decide what's right and what's wrong? What if opposite sex
marriage was treated as same sex marriage is, we love who we love for
reasons that cannot be explained (unless your one of the goons who
claims to be a cousin of a monkey) so why should anyone have to? War.
Rape. Murder. Poverty. Equal rights for gays. Guess which one people
are fighting against?In truth there is rarely anyone whose sexual life,
if it were broadcast, would not horrify, surprise or detest so why is
it that everyone is so sanctimonious on this issue? I have not once met a
gay or lesbian that is worth detesting, in fact those that I have met
are some of the most incredible people I have ever met. Not only do they
have incredible courage for showing their pride in a time when they
aren't fully welcome, not only are they striving to be happy like the
rest of us but they also put up with all the venom spewing hate groups
in passive ways (unlike those belligerent morons who corner them and
beat on them in an unfair fight).Equal rights are not special rights,
you shouldn't have to earn them or convince people of their worth. Why
is it about the world as a whole that we are more comfortable seeing two
men holding guns than holding hands? Soldiers who are not afraid of
guns, bombs, capture, torture or death say they are afraid of
homosexuals. Clearly if everyone is so afraid of them they perhaps
they should not be used as soldiers but as weapons.
These are fellow human being we are talking about here, they need the
same things we need, if you cut them they bleed like us, if you open
their chest they are made exactly the same as us in every way (aside
from the male/female differences ) yet we treat them as lesser people.
If I recall correctly it was the same with the Jewish and the Blacks.
When will we learn from History and put the petty differences aside and
realize there's absolutely nothing wrong with being of a different skin,
religion, land, language, sex,or sexual orientation.

If male homosexuals are called "gay," then female homosexuals should be called "ecstatic." ~Shelly Roberts
