Gay Rights - Why is this an issue?

[steven787]

I support either (A) legalizing gay marriage or (B) de-governing marriage all together.

Why is this an issue though?

I'll tell you why... (begin rant 3 of the day)

See, the religious wackos make a bunch of noise. They are told that anal and oral sex are bad. That laying with a person of the same sex is bad. They work, get married young, and their idea of a night out is Wednesday Night Fun-ish Church. Some are closeted, jealous and angry. Others are infuriated by the idea that people live by a code of morals other than what their pastor tells them the bible says.

Then there's a very small portion of the gay community that act like idiots. They are zealous PDA'ers, loud and obnoxious, and make the rest of the gay community look bad.

Then a portion of gay people act like being denied the right to marry is equivelant to mass lynchings or an organized slaughter like the holocaust. Even more equate it to not being able to have access to the degree in which black people suffered. Or comparing mockery of homosexuality to being enslaved or called a N***** by every single white person around for 3 ceturies.

Then about half of the "normal" people are too ignorant, stupid, lazy, or miserable to understand why someone with different desires might deserve to give a shot at living the way they want to. I mean, they don't get to do what they want. Maybe their wives don't give'em head. Maybe their husbands don't make them cum. They bitch and moan and don't get what they want, so they figure: why should anyone else. But of course they rationalize it.


What a crazy world we live in, huh?

I have an idea, let's start being considerate to one another.

Maybe if church goers would focus on feeding the poor and helping those who hurt emotionally and spiritually instead of passing judgement and if "gay organizations" would do something to contribute with all their collective "power" (instead of exaggerating their situation as a civil rights revolution or a new Holocaust) we might all get along a little better and have a little better world.

Oh and all of the straight people in the middle who are in that third category. They need to get off their asses, turn off the TV, and do something useful.
