Sir Elton John is "fed up" with being a treated like a "second-class citizen" in the U.S.
That's why the 63-year-old gay singer said he took a stand last week during a performance at a private Beverly Hills fundraiser for the ongoing legal challenge to California's gay marriage ban...

What he means is that he wants PREFERENTIAL treatment and is not getting it. Cry me a river.
Elton is free to marry a woman of his choosing, providing she agrees. There is nothing second class about it. Marriage is a union between a man and woman. Elton might have some identity conflict when it comes to distinguishing which he is, but the overall intent and meaning of the institution of marriage isn’t complicated.
I’d give anything to be a “second class” multi-millionaire citizen! Wish I was half as oppressed as Sir Elton, Oprah or any number of these rich elitist A-holes!
Did Mick Jagger get knighted?
Oh poor baby. Our hearts lie bleeding in his hands
I’m sure polygamists feel like second-class citizens too. So too for pedophiles, bestialists, polyamorists, incest, necromancers, master-slaves.
Lots of people are discriminated against. They all love each other, so why can’t our smug and self-righteous society worship and tolerate them as normal?
Everything is so simple in the liberal mind.
People like him are responsible for AIDS in our country period. I’m seeing people on TV telling me that I have to eat far less salt.They say they do not want to pay increased insurance premiums caused by sodium in my diet. They say my “lifestyle” is costing them money.
You are so right.
yeah, Elton John is a real poor fellow. :)
Hey, if he wants to move to California and vote on the issue, go for it.
Queen Elton may be royalty in England but here he is just another Island Girl
If Elton is so butt-hurt over being gay in the USA....go back to the UK.
Seems like Elton stated that he had no problems with civil unions. I also got the impression he wasn’t interested in this issue too.
In a perfect world where homosexual sodomy would still be a crime and adoption of children by gays considered child abuse, Elton John would be currently wearing a striped jumpsuit and serving serious time.
Then Elton John should stay the hell out of the U.S.
He’s British.
He’s not a citizen.
He’s a subject.
He feels like a second class citizen? All he is ever exposed to are birds of the same feather.
He has a stinky outlook on life.
Maybe it has something to do with his choice to live life as a sodomist.
That little faggot with the earing and the makeup ,,, hey buddy that’s his own thing . That little faggot got his own jet airplane ,,, that little faggot he’s a second class citizen .
I really don’t care what they do in private, not my business. What I care about is them getting in our face and trying to force acceptance of their lifestyle, including marriage. Although I accept the person, I will never accept the lifestyle as normal, healthy, or moral. And they should not be allowed to adopt children. It isn’t a stable or healthy lifestyle.
