But I wish in the name of fairness and equality to have the same rights as the queers. Namely the right to setup straight neighborhoods where no queers are allowed.

Again, nowhere in this article does it state that their goal is to have a community in which heterosexuals are "not allowed." Also, what are the "rights" that you are referring to? In this particular circumstance, it does not appear that they are asking for any special rights.

I understand it as an attempt by the Chamber of Commerce to cater to the "gay consumer" that some in the "arts community" feel we are missing out on because of the perception that Spokane is not "gay friendly".

I would prefer that our community, as well as our state, be perceived as "business friendly" before it begins to cater to "special interest groups."
