Read it how you want...He dont support homos marrying...

His quote about marrying -

"In my culture, marriage is a man-woman relationship."

But also -

Later, in an appearance at Holy Cross Church in Worcester, Jackson made sure others knew that he did support some rights for same-sex couples, noting "Gays deserve the right of choice to choose their own partners."

"If you don't agree, don't participate and don't perform the service," he said, according to the Associated Press.

He has not repudiated "gay rights".

Gay Marriage Anarchy in San Francisco

Comparing San Francisco Ordinances with anarchy isn't fair to anarchists.

He is speaking of the "right" to be gay... Do you think being gay should be illegal?

When I was in SF last year I was attacked from behind by a panhandling homeless bum when I ignored him. This was in the business district in the middle of the day. Fortunately I caught his moving toward me out of the corner of my eye and was able to react in time. I wasn't hurt, but the potential was there if he had been quicker and used a knife instead of a bottle. The next day I say the peace activists riot and try to overturn cable cars with children in them. More riots the following day, but it was generally covered up by the news media. I have no plans to be returning anytime soon.

Pray for the big one.

Magnitude 12+ on the richter scale.

Break California off at the San Andreas and dump it into the Pacific.

Bay Area Freepers, leave now. Head East and get ready to set up the new West Coast.

Of course not. But I'm tired of paying for it, and I refuse to "celebrate" it or even approve of it. Neither do I go out of my way to offensively condemn it. Unless it's shoved in my face...

I'm sure the issue will soon be behind him.

Looks can be deceiving, time will tell.

Prediction: California votes Bush 2004

"The line between Rats and the GOP gets wider and brighter every day."

I would love to believe that, but they both spend taxpayers' money like drunken sailors. This fall, whaddaya got? Skull & Bones I or Skull & Bones II.

I had a bottle thrown at me after refusing panhandlers outside a movie theater. I was armed, fortunately it didn't come to anything more serious.

[Kirkwood]

I've never experienced a problem with the homeless on any other occasion, but I think SF has a greater share of the psycho homeless who have had their brains fried by drugs.

[RipSawyer]

Careful, if you force people to smell the stench from the pretty white striped kittycat they will scold you incessantly. Altogether now, Freedom is Slavery, or is it Slavery is Freedom?

[mvpel]

SF offers cash payouts to bums, so naturally bums from all over the Bay Area, and the rest of the country for that matter, flock to the city.

I would not oppose the anti-sodomy laws that were in place in each of the 13 original states at the time the Constitution was ratified.

As a matter of fact, they should all be re-implemented ASAP.

The homosexual agenda is running rampant, and not a single politician cares, or is doing anything about it.

The next logical steps is criminalizing any speech that opposes homosexuality. It's already happening in the UK and Canada.

It's sad. I have never thought very much of republicans but I do remember a time when at the very least they were consistent. You know, the old fashioned reganite types that believed in smaller government, little to no social programs to help the less fortunate, no enviornmental regulations on businesses, tax cuts for the wealthy and all that jazz but fundamentally they were about keeping government off your back and strict constructionts of the constitution. Where does it say in the constitution that marriage is a fundamental right between a man and a woman or even hint that it is a major concern. Remember in the 1980's the repubs defeated the Equal rights Amendment which would have just enshrined a statement that women should be given all the equal rights of men. Maybey we didn't need that amendment because it had already happened, I don't really know and I don't care since that battle is lost. More importantly though when did the repubs give up on the idea of individual liberty? If you don't agree with it then don't do it. You used to always talk about smaller government, I guess what you all meant is that you wanted to make govt. just small enough to fit into ordinary Americans bedrooms. Gay people serve in the army, pay taxes, and work just like everyone else. Personally I don't give a damn what they want to do with eachother. God Save the U.S. from those that would limit the freedom of others and God Bless San Francisco.

and God Bless San Francisco

Yes, God bless the worlds largest outdoor insane asylum.

Gob blesses those who praise his name...San Fran is not one of those places.
