Wow Aury. This is perhaps the stupidest thing I have ever heard you say. Normally I like you man but you are just trying to be an ass here. At no point in the past 4 has the president or anyone else said that being gay should be illegal. They have said they don't think they should be able to marry. Big difference.

Oh, so "Please, don't be gay" is different from "Please, be gay, but just don't have us aknowledge your love in any way, shape, or form, because it makes us old, fat, white men uncomfortable."?

ACES! Another post by Azizza:

Umm, less than four years ago, many states had anti-sodomy laws, in which someone could be arrested for performing sodomy in the privacy of their own home. I'd say that making butt sex illegal is about the same as making 'being gay' illegal. When the Supreme Court ruled that the laws be gotten rid of, Republicans complained about legislating from the bench, judicial activism, etc. There were pleny of Republicans who supported those laws.

Don't care if you are gay, don't care if you wanna marry another gay person, don't care WHAT you do in the privacy of your own bedroom (Gay OR Strait, shouldn't be public period), but damn gay rights parades scary me. They are just downright creepy and are almost as bad as what they are fighting againts. As in "Here, let me force my lifestyle and preference down your throat".

I got the picture years ago, I understood it years ago, I have gay friends and dont care one way or another about your preference. But my god, shutup already.

I pretty much echo Artty's comments. Being proud is one thing, being outspokenly so, is entirely different while in turn being NO different from what they are prideful against. It's not just the pride marches and stuff though, its like, hollywood and everything. There ALWAYS has to be the token gay character (or characters) in everything. And always flaboyantly so. Talk about propogating a stereotype.

It'd be no difference than a hetero pride parade or pushing hetero values constantly. Cept, you know, we can't have those. They are concidering hateful and predjudiced.

Well that's because a lot of the people that would propagate such an event would be the hateful and prejudiced ones that are just trying to say "ha! take that FAGS!" with the parade. You know, it would turn into an anti-gay thing instead of a pro-straight thing. There's a big difference. I'm no supporter of pride parades either, don't get me wrong, but I don't think a hetero pride parade would turn out as you're thinking it might.

And you're saying no hetero-hating goes on an a gay rights parade? Non of that "Strait people beating me down, just let me be gay" crap. Cause I can vouche otherwise. In fact, the one in Montrose in Houston back in 95 turned into a riot. NOT because strait people were bashing GAY people, but because a group of gays (Dont remember which one... Rather large and prominant one) got it in thier head that they were gonna prove they were just as good as any strait man, and proceeded to breat the crap out of people on the street. Bajah and Matt probably remember that one, cause it was like telecast everywhere down there for days following the aftermath. And lets not forget some of the weird and freaky violent crap that goes on at Mardi Gra events, and DOESNT just involve, or is started by strait people.

No sorry. A strait person is no better or different than a gay person, but the opposite is also true. BOTH factions have thier own issues, and BOTH factions CAUSE issues. Same applies to Blacks and Whites, Athiests and Christians, etc. It's the exact same comparison.

Psst! Here's a newsflash for you. There really is no such thing judical activism, et al. There's rulings you agree with and rulings you don't agree with. If the rulings had gone the other way, gays and their supporters would be the ones yelling "activism!", and they'd just as wrong as the Republicans are in this case.

I agree with everything you said. I'm just saying that judicial activism was what some conservatives in the media were shouting and complaining about. I was pointing out to Azizza that there are indeed some lawmakers who want to make being gay illegal (in the case of sodomy), and in fact it was illegal till about a year or two ago in many states.

I thought activist judges were judges that ruled against what the majority wants.

Of course, what would be the point of having judges if we just let the majority of people decide everything.
