There are plenty of African-Americans who can't stand the comparison between the 1960s Civil Rights movement and today's gay rights agenda.

I've always thought that there should be outrage. But I've worked with black women who sympathize with gays because, you know, they can't help being born that way.

When I tried to point out the difference of their own genetic struggles versus gay behavior, they didn't want to hear it.

"They can't help they were born that way."

Those African-American women didn't understand the difference and I couldn't understand their attitude. It seems like they have a long way to go, IMHO.

That mindset is straight out of Oprah.
