PROVINCETOWN Town leaders here are holding a public meeting today to air concerns about slurs and bigoted behavior. And this time, they say, it's gay people who are displaying intolerance.

Police say they logged numerous complaints of straight people being called "breeders" by gays over the July Fourth holiday weekend. Jamaican workers reported being the target of racial slurs. And a woman was verbally accosted after signing a petition that opposed same-sex marriage, they said. ...though police say they do not consider the incidents hate crimes.

...

...[T]ensions are rising in part because of strong feelings about same-sex marriage.

...

A group that supports gay marriage, knowthyneighbor, has created a website displaying the names of more than 100,000 signers of a petition that calls for the state Constitution to be amended to prohibit same-sex marriage.

Knowthyneighbor's tactics are controversial, with critics alleging that knowthyneighbor is making the names of same-sex marriage opponents public in an effort to expose or intimidate them.

In other words, they might have to grow up and become contributing productive members of society. That means giving up the 24 hour sex and drugs hedonistic lifestyle. Going to work in an office and going home at night to be with ONE person (or more if there are kids).

Their lifestyle CHOICE was always declared to be an "alternative" to that.

My neighbor can know my views on gay marriage. Then, I don't live in a gay enclave.

Either these people who refer to the portion of the population that keeps the species going as 'breeders' are either very short sighted, or part of the voluntary human extinction movement.

Either way, I don't think they'll be around much longer.

Big shock (not!).
I had to put up with this sort of crap from a fellow graduate student
in the late 1980s.
And that was at a Big 12 university in a very conservative state.

And yes, the professors put up with it and didn't ever try to squelch
it...they "didn't want to hurt anybody's feelings".

If they call heterosexuals "straight", wouldn't the proper term for them be crooked?

[Vermont Lt]

This is new in P-town? My goodness, this has been the case in that town for decades. They go there to be flamboyant and outrageous. Did this reporter just wake up?
