gays are to republicans as jews were to nazis. discuss.
before jews were sent off to concentration camps, they were subjected to a series of humiliations, restrictions, loss of rights, loss of property, and loss of freedoms.
but it was gradual. the latest change was never so drastic from the way it was just prior for the german people to object loudly enough.
so it is with gays today.
based solely on their private desires, gays can be barred from holding a variety of jobs, none of which have anything whatsoever to do with those private desires.
we already know about the violence and abuse, verbal and otherwise, heaped on gays. it's tough being gay in this society. i'm willing to bet that teenage suicides are heavily disproportionately gay.
and now, if michigan has its way, health professionals -- apparently even including emergency room personal and emts -- can refuse to treat gays and not face any punishment whatsoever, indeed, the state will actually protect them from punishment.
that's right. apparently they want to make michigan safe for doctors who like to sit and watch gays die instead of even attempting to help them.
just like doctors in nazi germany refused to treat jews.
hmm. iiiiiinteresting.
were i president, i would cut off highway funds and all state aid until michigan stepped back from the evil abyss. sadly, to bozo currently at 1600 pennsylvania will likely applaud the action. hell, it was probably rove's idea in the first place....
