Jeff Merkley introduces sweeping LGBT rights bill that makes big changes to Civil Rights Act
The Oregonian ^ | July 24, 2015 | Jeff Mapes

Oregon Sen. Jeff Merkley, who led the fight in the last Senate for a ban on job discrimination against gays, has said for months that he's shifting to a more expansive approach.

On Thursday, Merkley and his allies introduced their new bill, and it is indeed far more sweeping than anything the Oregon Democrat has proposed on gay rights in the past.

I’d rather see sweeping legislation which allows our military to protect themselves when on post.

Oh but you miss the point! The point needs to be Pride, Pride, Pride, and more Pride! /sardonic

How in the name of all that is righteous and holy can people who are sexual deviants be considered equal to blacks in civil rights issues? People are born the color they are born - and nothing convinces me that gays are born that way. In fact, most say they were molested as kids and that is why they are now gay. What a sick world we live in. I guess what people do with their genitals is more important than the security of this nation. Sick!!

So let me get this straight. If anyone treats me poorly, or I don’t get my way. All I have to do is say I am a Homo, and I can sue? Is this a great country or what?

The devil’s got ‘em by the you know what...

It’s still possible to fight it. But that needs more than complaining to nobody in particular. That needs believing that God will do what God says He will do. Then get your spiritual ducks in a row then go hunting.

Sounds like it is getting close to that.

Remember the point is Pride, Pride, Pride, and more Pride. This is the new dispensation, the new forgive-all (and even excuse-all).

“How in the name of all that is righteous and holy can people who are sexual deviants be considered equal to blacks in civil rights issues? “

Because both blacks and perverts vote democratic and perverts often have money to donate to politicians

Not to the American people, 66+ million of whom think things are grand.

Another problem is weakness of faith. If you pit weak belief in God against strong belief in the Devil, the devil’s minions will come out on top, for a while.

There's nothing civil about the Transhumanist/Postgenderist agenda.

Which of the following can produce viable human offspring?

A: A black (or white) male human and a white (or black) female human.

B: A black (or white) postgenderist-transhumanist and a white (or black) postgenderist-transhumanist having the same sex chromosomes.

C: Only the humans.

Who was the guy that said “Don’t confuse your sin with my skin.” Was it Ben Carson? Whoever it was, it’s a great quote.

Just wait until some Dad finds his crying daughter was molested in a public bathroom by some perve tranny. Homo special rights won’t be so fun then.

Ask any white Liberal and they will tell you that all people of color support gay marriage and are happy to say that the LDBTQP struggle is every bit as important as theirs.
