You made the choice to be "gay" and appear to be super-sensitive to any negative press about a crime committed by a "gay".

Some of us "straights" are at the line in the sand that "gay" agenda setters are trying to cross. There is a reason why "gays" are having such a fit about not being allowed into "Boy Scouts", and the lows the liberals in this country have gone to harm the "Boy Scouts" is "flavoring".

I have a problem with what you claim as concern for children being equated with what you call flavoring.

"Subtext of this article is clearly that homosexuals in general are a problem", is an accurate reflection regarding this specific crime. Note the whole media howls when a "hate crime" is committed, the special crime when a crime is committed against a homosexual. There is a post here where you have to go and look for it and you howl.

There is another aspect to this agenda, Christian's who give a scriptural reason that homosexuality is against nature, get shrilled with intimidation.

Apparently, you are not satisfied with your sex choice, because if you were, jumping in to expose this article as "gay bashing" would not have entered your mind.

Go back and read your first post on the subject.

Yes, you did and continue to change the subject.

Where to start...

First of all, don't presume I made a choice to be gay. I don't think I did, and you don't know any differently.

I personally have no problems with the Boy Scouts deciding who may and who may not join their organization. (Who is setting this "gay" agenda? Why am I never invited to the super-secret meetings?)

I'm not equating children with flavoring. I said that the organization who put out this article, the Traditional Values Coalition, is basically using this article to whip up anti-homosexual sentiment. And it is. Go click on their website, and you know their agenda in two minutes. Nothing wrong with that, but the way they prop it up with isolated incidents is just a huge logical fallacy example. If it's the kind of idea you agree with already, you lap it up. Simple, but irrational and it fosters a lot of anger and fear. Witness, for instance, all the people on this board who accuse me of supporting pedophiles.

About the Christian groups who speak out about homosexuality and get "shrilled".. you'd have to give me an example.

And don't worry about my sexual choices, please. They don't concern you in the least.
