I may have argued with HiTech RedNeck a few times, but it is incorrect that he advocates for same-sex marriage. I think his views represent the majority of Freepers, i.e. oppose homosexual special protections and “marriage” but does not support the biblical designation of homosexual sex warranting capital punishment. (I have pointed out that both the Old and New Testaments treat homosexual sex as deserving the death penalty.)
I agree with ansel112 that the views of Rand Paul are not good on this issue, but I hope we are not ready to ban Rand Paul supporters just because he is not as good as Ted Cruz.
We are all edgy and angry over the continual destruction of our nation and culture we are witnessing daily. But sometimes we need to remember we are one the same team and not turn into a circular firing squad.
HiTech does certainly push for gay marriage and without let up, look at this thread and any thread where he is engaged on it.
Nothing can shake Hi from always opposing any political resistance, any legislation, any candidate who opposes gay marriage, at any level, for instance at the federal level in the military, federal employment and immigration, that is why he started with the GOD angle a few years ago, to keep promoting his libertarian positions while sounding too religious to be fighting for what he is fighting for, he does the same on abortion, as he opposes pro-life politics and mocks the political successes of the pro-life movement, and continues his rants against pro-life and pro-marriage politics and legislation, and candidates.
Why you would say something as bizarre as you did about him representing the majority of freepers views, and then instead of describing that majority view as being for traditional marriage, life, and opposing the gay agenda, you described us as, against the “death penalty” for homosexual sex, is sickly dishonest, there is no interest or thought or discussion about the “death penalty” for homosexuals.
We support conservative candidates and conservative politics, small government and marriage, and life, and those apply at all levels, for all candidates, it isn’t small government to be fighting to preserve Obama’s gay marriage at the federal level in the military, and federal employment, and immigration, or fighting against and mocking as “statist” and NON-Christian, social conservatism, yet that is what HiTech is doing, and doing with everything that he can counter the Christians with, for instance, gay marriage in the name of God, and libertarians as being the true faithful and criticizing libertarianism as “blaspheming” the true bible people.
HiTech makes the most Satanic, anti-God, anti-Christian posts we see, in defense of the homosexual agenda, and even abortion when someone can engage him enough on it to get him to speaking openly.
I can also say that more plainly.
If you support fighting gay marriage with conservative candidates, conservative politics and keeping it in the GOP platform, who are you guaranteed to be opposed by at freerepublic, who will fight you tooth and nail to block efforts to protect traditional marriage, and will pull out all the stops to resist and oppose any political opposition to gay marriage?
