Stop The Gay Canadians!

SF Gate ^ | June 20, 2003 | Mark Morford

[Mister Magoo]

Hordes of quivering GOP lawmakers and vast throngs of proudly homophobic right-wing Christian Americans fell into an adorable tizzy the other day as the entire really, really big country of Canada announced it will change its law to allow full-on homosexual marriage anywhere in the whole country including Vancouver and Toronto and even "that weird province with all the gay French people."

A suggesttion "Morfords?"


What do you think?

[KneelBeforeZod]

morford never writes back. especially when you clearly and easily refute his rants. which is pretty much every time.

but he obviously is just provoking people.

[KneelBeforeZod]

faaaaaaaaaa-bulous!

Afore all of the residents of SF,denizens of Vermont and employees of Disneyworld rush north to exchange rings. Some brutal facts.

"Because these marriages were entered in another country, the "full faith and credit" clause of the Constitution does not apply to them. Instead, as a general rule, most foreign marriages historically have been respected (that is, treated as valid) for most purposes in the United States if they were validly entered in the country where the couple married under what are known as "principles of comity."

The result is:-

1.Unless they are willing to spend three years in the frozen tundra and apply for Canadian citizenship it don't
count.

2.The Defence of Marriage Act, the federal government will not treat as valid for any federal law purposes (immigration, taxes, benefits, etc.) a marriage between a same-sex couple entered in the Netherlands or Canada.

3.The recognition of many international marriages (while accepable in their own jurisdictions) are not accepted in the US, eg underage children, polygamy and same-sex marriage.

4. As Federal law supercedes state law, 1 USC Sec. 7 prevents any "progressive" states from recognizing same-sex marriages.

Therefore,the rush to SARSland remains an exercise in futility.

sounds like the homosexual is a little paranoid himself!

Confusingly, in another column he identifies himself as heterosexual. Well, it appears that he does. He says he has a girlfriend, anyway. Who knows.

[beachn4fun]

well that could work if I used it on anyone other than him. But not sure how it would sound if I tried to accuse him of being "Morford" ya know what I mean?

[beachn4fun]

I also agree with your tag!

[beachn4fun]

you are too funny....LOL

[beachn4fun]

hmmm, well I guess that could depend on which one thinks he's the guy and which one thinks he's the girl, maybe?

Don't matter. Anyone writing that kind of trash because there are people in the world who oppose (read, doesn't mean we can stop it) same-sex relationships, must have something in their "craw" me thinks!

This isn't a "lifestyle": its an aberration that
needs extensive therapy! There is nothing "gay"
about these people, they are an unhappy lot.

If ever a PROJECTILE BARF ALERT was needed this pathologically-mean-spirited spewing of hate speech and of the projected contents of the black hole that does the likes of this Brownie-Points-in-Hell "writer" for a soul surely qualifies for it. Although, as, every time he opens his mouth, does every one of evil's lickspittles -- and without relaying a single fact or a single truth, this diatribe surely reveals heaps about what ails Mr Morford. We should all be praying for the poor sick bastard.

You know as I was reading this article I thought how funny it is that he is writing the following:

Quotes: "It is a disease, this brand of spitting homophobia, a shockingly common hate-filled attitude running like liquid fire through a surprisingly large number of "patriotic" Christian Americans."

"It happens at least once every column, and a great deal more whenever I write a piece openly criticizing the president or aggressively questioning this "war" or humorously insinuating that Dick Cheney is really a deeply frightening thin-lipped glob of toxic tapioca who scares small children and makes flowers wilt and perpetually looks like he just swallowed a large dung beetle." (oh notice how he says his is "humorously insinuating" regarding Cheney).

"Maybe you thought such strains of virulent homophobia were diminishing in this country."

"Would it be fair to call these types of conservatives sexual terrorists? Is there really that great a distance separating what a religious extremist is willing to perpetrate in the name of his angry martyring God, and what an extreme homophobe might do when faced with an apparent threat to his trembling machismo, in the name of his sexually confused deity?"

"The hate mail is but a fraction, and the hissing homophobia, smaller still."

please note how many times he uses the word "homophobia." Also, see how he puts together "patriotic" Christian Americans, the tie-in with extremist, and (the big one) name of his sexually confused deity?"

this is ok cause he's a journalist? The things I read into this article as well as the other one, it this guy who lives in San Fran is pandering to the homosexual groups since they are probably the largest percentage of readers. And, he is also preparing the world to be ashamed of themselves for not accepting the homosexual lifestyle. Stirring up the natives. But guess what, he's a journalist, so that's ok. But don't you post anything to the contrary!!! No, no, no!

[beachn4fun]

Oh, I agree with the misnomer "gay" , that is why I use the term homosexual. That is the correct term. Doesn't "gay" make it such a cute name that makes it easier to convince people?

I hope this fag Moronford contracts AIDS. I really do.

[RAT Patrol]

And they say we are hateful.

[Clint N. Suhks]

I hope this fag Moronford contracts AIDS. I really do.

I'd rather you'd hope for his reparation and salvation.

[weegee]

He's an intolerant little rodent isn't he?

Does he always write this crazed or did his medication run out?
