When you said religious discrimination,now thats some serious shiet right there.Its worse than gaey rights,trust me dude but i guess people are jealous cause ive seen gaey marriage and they are more happy than problably a heterosexual marriage and people just like to discriminate other and if they consider gaey marriage a bad thing,god know what they have done which is worse than that.

First Rule

Dontdisrespect people cause of theyre religion(Catholic,Christian,Jews,Muslims,Buddhist,ETC)u have a right to believe in sumthing and its your own personal life.

Second

Gaey Marriage or Relationship is something very respectable in my opinion and i dont have nothing against it as long as gaey dont people dont disrespect me(gaey people should show respect to those who respect their rights than those that dont in life.I have a cousin whose gaey and hes cool and a cool guy.

Third

Racism. thats beeen a battle since like the 60s,70s,80,90,00s and will keep going on till the world ends and thats cause they like problems and only look at colors and not values and what they have dont in life.(martin luther king,unbelivable man and awesome,(killed cause he was black and dam racism).I guess racist people hate watching something from their own different color have a supreme power over society and politics.

I'm gay and really resent the fact that I could legally be fired from my job for my sexual orientation (which was not a choice!) and it makes me feel like a second-class citizen that I'm forbidden to marry.

I say we forget our illogical biases (sexual orientation, sexual preferences, race, etc.) and create some new totally outlandish reasons to discriminate.

Example: "Sorry Bill. You don't get the job. You have freckles. Now get out of my office you filthy frecker!

that made me laugh so hard I snorted.

I believe the gay is contagious, and caused 9/11; therefore the gay needs to be eradicated. It's unnatural, (I think my dogs got the gay as well, I don't know how), It's sterile (two men can't reproduce, but neither can a virgin....) and someone's missing either a mother or father (Which my mom was straight but since my dad beat the shit out of her, she left him...and he's not gay...). Anyways, the catholic knights or whatever, told me that these were the reasons. There were seven more, but I forgot the others mainly because these first three were so hard hitting.

its our elder's society still having their beliefs cast on the beliefs of others. As they lose power and the younger generations become more powerful things will improve. Every year there are more and more younger voters that all have the ability to change the legal standings in the US.

Its annoying but acceptance is only a few more years away. Within the next decade you will see radical changes, not made by Obama, by the US citizens.

I've been saying this forever. We just need to start killing old people, the damn frekkers can't drive, they smell funny, they are using up all my social security, and they hold society back. Out with the old frekkly bastards, in with the new clear faced winners.

Because humans have a natural inclination towards an "Us vs Them" mentality and the religious right (not all of them, but that's where the base is) views gays as the "Them" of the moment. Like blacks before them, they will only ruin america (and that's god's country!) if treated as equals.

Eh... I think the Religious Right is a small part of the total US population... and the truth is a vast majority of Americans are against gay marriage and issues like that. (Not me... but the majority.)

Obama, John Kerry, Al Gore, Bill Clinton and Jimmy Carter were all against gay marriage when running....

and outside Al Gore are all still against gay marriage.

At best you can get Civil Unions... which is basically...  as one woman put it...

"I don't care if black people live someplace nicer then i do... I just don't want them in the same neighberhood.  White Power!"

Segregation of rights is better then denying the rights outright... but it's still quite bad... and America still has a looooong way to go.

Heck, it's not even illegal to fire someone because they're gay or refuse to serve someone because they're gay. (in most states.)

Gay people right now are basically like black people during the Civil Rights movements... except gay people are really good at "hiding."

Not exactly optimal.

You'd really be amazed how many ways gay people can still be discriminated against. Very few states have legislation that protects them from housing, job, and other forms of discrimination.

Gay people are the black people of our generation in terms of how society still treats them differently.



We had two bags of grass, seventy-five pellets of mescaline, five sheets of high-powered blotter acid, a salt shaker half full of cocaine, a whole galaxy of multi-colored uppers, downers, screamers, laughers…Also a quart of tequila, a quart of rum, a case of beer, a pint of raw ether and two dozen amyls.  The only thing that really worried me was the ether.  There is nothing in the world more helpless and irresponsible and depraved than a man in the depths of an ether binge. –Raoul Duke

It is hard to shed anything but crocodile tears over White House speechwriter Patrick Buchanan's tragic analysis of the Nixon debacle. "It's like Sisyphus," he said. "We rolled the rock all the way up the mountain...and it rolled right back down on us...."  Neither Sisyphus nor the commander of the Light Brigade nor Pat Buchanan had the time or any real inclination to question what they were doing...a martyr, to the bitter end, to a "flawed" cause and a narrow, atavistic concept of conservative politics that has done more damage to itself and the country in less than six years than its liberal enemies could have done in two or three decades. -Hunter S. Thompson
