I say, enough of this pussyfooting around. I believe the time has come to give gays, the LGBT freak show, rights and privileges above and beyond that of the typical, straight, heterosexual WHITE citizen, entitling the whole stinking lot of them to a special elevated status of rights and privileges, like the caste system in India. Hopefully, only then will they finally get to STFU.

You mean gays etc aren't already protected from discrimination?
Or are the leftists/statists simply saying the usual buzzwords but passing another law that gives more special privileges to a very lucrative constituency of theirs?
I think we know whats happening here.

Some people are more “equal” than others and need their own laws.

Straight?Why use their language? You are normal. If you are straight, then they are bent, warped or crooked.

Now these Democrats and a few RINOS will force down the throats of every Christian a law that will in it self make being a real Christian against the law.
Will Christians be sent to prison for not accepting homosexuality and firing gays from a workplace or refusing to sell products or services to gays?
How can Christians be good Christians if they cannot practice their religion?

That’s the whole point of the whole “gay rights” thing.
The left couldn’t give two shakes about the plight of “gay” people.
But they sure are an effective tool to get Christianity criminalized.
And THAT is the goal.

On second thought I guess its still not illegal for a Catholic school to refuse to hire a gay man in drag.
Looks like congress & Obama will soon fix that.

Exactly.
We have already read stories about Christian bakers who have been sued for not wanting to bake a cake for a gay wedding. Now we will see all kinds of prosecutions of Christians who happen to be lawyers, plumbers, cab drivers or doctors who will be prosecuted for standing up for their Christian beliefs and not servicing gays and lesbians.
Christians will not be able to fire employees for being gay.
What happened to the First Amendment?

You know, you remind of something I saw years ago on the Phil Donno'ho'
Pukefest similar to what you made reference to that really enraged me.
Philly was doing his typical gay topic interview program with several of homo-land's star activists. This flaming fairy would go into the mostly normal crowd and asked each individual he got to speak with, are you gay or non-gay?
Needless to say, I nearly kicked the TV screen in.

Because you must employ sexual deviants in your workplace, or else you will be sued and have your business destroyed.
Let’s stop pretending that Americans have freedom.

The states have never amended the Constitution to expressly protect so-called gay rights. So Congress has no 14th Amendment authority to make laws to protect such “rights.”
To: lbryce
Republicans ready to help democrats create another federally recognized and funded victim group with rights and protections superior to lowly common folk who are white, heterosexual or working taxpayers.

So tell me, why should I be forced to hire "Gay" people when I KNOW, I can't trust them and I know they are morally incorrect?
