Has nothing whatsoever to do with “bedroom behavior.” It’s the public in your face and down our kids throats behavior that is intolerable. Keep it off our public squares, out of our playgrounds, out of our parks, out of our public restrooms, off our streets, out of our schools, out of our churches, off of our TV, out of our movies, out of our judiciary, out of our military, out of our government and out of our faces!! Take it back to your private bedrooms. Thankyouverymuch!!
That’s the Jim Robinson that brought me to FR.
Let people do what they do in their home, just don’t push it on us through laws and politics, and let God sort it out in the end.

So glad you posted this because it’s an important distinction (to me anyway). I use to be a bit ambivilant on the whole homosexual stuff, because I didn’t realize how sick their whole activism wing was until I read about it on FR several years ago. I was never in favor of gay marriage, but felt like you(I think), in that what they did in their bedrooms was none of my business as long as they kept it there. I had no idea what they were doing in our schools,etc. Now it’s plain for all to see on TV and in our society. Their in your face stuff is helping to rot our society from within,undermine our republic, and usher in more socialism.
I was also ambivilant because I have a beloved niece who is ‘gay’. I will never stop loving her...EVER. I had to step up years ago as a mother and father figure for her because my brother was a drunk and her mother was a drug addict..long story that I’d rather not go into. Suffice it to say, she is like a daughter to me and she is family. Thankfully..she is not into the whole homosexual agenda machine and she votes conservative.
Anyway...hope you can understand my real dilemma here. My guess is that there are other FReepers here in the same boat(with family members and/or friends who are gay). You won’t find us in threads making fun of gays or condemning them to hell like some Fred Phelps nut....but neither will you find us in threads supporting the whole homosexual agenda machine or candidates that do.
If you can live with that, then hopefully folks like me can stay around and continue to support FR and everything it stands for. If not, I will respect your wishes and with great sadness take my leave from FR. FR has been a big part of my life and has really helped me clarify my own beliefs through the years and for that, I am eternally grateful. I will always be thankful that I found this place and made so many great FRiends. May God bless you Jim for all you have done for our great republic.
Sorry for the long vanity here, but thought it important to post and clarify.
Kind FRegards,
