Rome: "Then maybe the homos should shut the F88K up and stop trying to force normal people to accept their lifestyle as acceptable at gunpoint."
Ron, I don't know a whole lotta people, Republican or otherwise, who give a good doodly squat what people do in their bedrooms, and that isn't what this is about. What it's about is people who want us to know exactly what they do in their bedrooms and then want to deny us our God-given right to discriminate against open homosexuality in our communities, workplaces, youth organizitions, schools, and social gathering places.
If two people are roommates, I have no idea whether or not they're gay. The only time I know that they're gay is if THEY CHOOSE TO LET ME KNOW.
And if I know they're gay and I decide I don't want to rent to them, or serve them in my business, or employ them, or let them be in charge of my kid's Boy Scout or Girl Scout troop, or show up at my kid's school talking up the "gay lifestyle" as an okay option, then I should be able to do just that without fear of legal reprisal; by the same token, if I want to welcome them, cater to them in my business or rental property, or if I want to sponsor a group in which they parade their homosexuality openly, then that should also be my right without fear of legal reprisal, and indeed, we already have that SECOND right.
It's the FIRST right that the homosexual agenda wants to deny us. So the term "gay rights" is a parlor trick in two ways. First of all, it's not about homosexuality, it's about OPEN homosexualty. Second, it's not about endowing rights, it's about DENYING RIGHTS.
The gay agenda within the Republican party is an oxymoron. Limited government principle would make irrelevant, any place and any time, the private sexual activities of any legal adults.
