You are clearly delusional and/or can't read. I say again: John C. Calhoun wished to make all speech opposing slavery not only illegal but unconstitutional.

The article cited above says that the same thing is happening to opponents of homosexuality, that the homosexual lobby is seeking to ban all speech opposing homosexuality.

Now, which part of this similarity do you fail to understand? Do you deny that the homosexual lobby is seeking to ban all "anti-gay" speech? Do you deny that Calhoun, and many other supporters of slavery, sought constitutional protections specifically against speech (and writings, such as Uncle Tom's Cabin) against homosexuality?

Either you are significantly dense, or you have such an anti-homosexual chip on your shoulder that you cannot even see facts when they support your case. Either way, YOUR deceit or willful ignorance is stunning.

> “This was the case with slavery. John C Calhoun said that the South not only needed a constitutional right to own slaves but to own them free of criticism.”

The above from your post #2.

You can resort to all the name calling and misguided derision you want. And you can change the subject at your whim.

My comments stand.
