Lech Walesa shocks Poland with anti-gay words
AP ^ | 3/3/2013 | VANESSA GERA

Posted on 03/03/2013 11:08:43 PM PST by MaryLou1

"Walesa said in a television interview on Friday that he believes gays have no right to sit on the front benches in Parliament and, if represented at all, should sit in the back, "and even behind a wall."

"They have to know that they are a minority and must adjust to smaller things. And not rise to the greatest heights, the greatest hours, the greatest provocations, spoiling things for the others and taking (what they want) from the majority," he told the private broadcaster TVN during a discussion of gay rights. "I don't agree to this and I will never agree to it."

"A minority should not impose itself on the majority," Walesa said.

The words have enraged many."

My guess is Lech had his fill of seeing in his lifetime homosexuality go from “The love that dare not speak its name” to “The love that can’t keep its %(#&ing mouth shut”.

I think Lech shocked the knee-jerk godless liberals at the AP, not the “Polish people.”

Shocks Poland? Yeah right, 90% of Poles agree with Lech on this.

The words have enraged many.

I read this article on Yahoo, not exactly a conservative site, and the comments were running at least 15:1 or higher in favor of what Walesa said. I believe nothing the MSM tells me any longer, especially throw-away, unprovable, editorial comments like "the words have enraged many."

How did sane society ever get away from “anti-gay” = “good?”

“Lech Walesa shocks Poland with anti-gay words….”

Once again, Mr. Walesa speaks out bravely and boldly … and wisely….

“Could we trade Barry and Michelle for Lech and his wife?”

The irony is that Mr. Walesa and his wife (though Polish) would probably serve and protect American ideals of freedom and American values far better than do the current occupants of the White House...

I think it would be a good trade, regardless of what the Constitution says (and obviously, “what it says” is being ignored right now, eh?)

“Prolly racis as well.......”

Troll, at least learn to spell.

And for the record I don’t think certain people should have special privilege & affirmation based solely upon the manner in which they have sex. Nor should they have hijacked what was once an innocent carefree word to decorate their highly dysfunctional lifestyle.

So tell me what that makes me. Then ask me if I care.

“The left have so twisted public perceptions that the truth now appears pornographic.”

Brilliant!

1. I doubt if “Poland” was shocked.
2.The words are only “anti-gay” in the dialectic
where the other side in resolutely “anti-Walesa”.
BTW, a better title might have been:
Lech Walesa’s “gay problem”.

Headline reads like some sort of Polish joke.

For an encore, he told them that the sky is blue and grass is green.

Huh? Any citizen of EU can live and work in any EU country, just as any ignoramus can post nonsense on any Internet forum!

She's a daughter of an ex-communist security service senior officer. She started working in mass media in 1982, in the most gruesome times of the communist tyranny, while anybody else who was merely accused of sympathy for Solidarity was immediately kicked the hell out of the media and often imprisoned. So, what else could we expect from that woman?

Btw, she's not a professional journalist since she completed a zoological faculty. Nevertheless, for the leftist saloon, as we call it, she cuts out perfectly. So, she works for TVN, the most liberal TV Poland has ever seen.

As to Walesa, just BINGO!
