From #115: We (the majority) don't want the deviates to be equal. They aren't equal, we live in a Republic where the majority still has the majority of the say.

Sorry wwjdn, but in this Republic the majority elects a government, which is contrained from certain actions by the Constitution. The role of this government is to protect the rights of all citizens - not just those in the majority. And the majority can never change that fact, no matter if the majority comprised 99% of the population.

Maybe they don't need to be jailed, but they shouldn't be allowed to freely display and force their ideals down others throats.

In other words, you've changed your position? In #5 you stated, "I say jail all openly homosexuals if they refuse to go back to normal moral lifestyle." Now you're saying homosexuals don't need to be jailed; I'm glad you've seen the error in your earlier thinking.

They are the most militant group alive that I am aware of. Doesn't that worry you just a little?

More militant than the Taliban? Than China's government? Than Farrakhan/Sharpton? It seems as though your fixation on homosexuals has obscured your view of the world as a whole. If homosexuals are fighting for rights equal to the rest of us, I'm not worried in the least. Even if I was, I'd realize I have "much bigger fish to fry".

I'm glad you've gone through and read the whole thread. Gives a good idea of just much of a wannabe tyrant this WWJDN is, doesn't it?

I'm amuzed at how he keeps talking about how militant those who disagree with him are, but at the same time he apparently can't see how much his own opinions reflect the most oppressive regimes throughout history that have committed some of the most egregious and unspeakable human rights abuses.

But of course, most of those regimes came to a point where they stopped seeing their enemies as humans with rights, something else I'm seeing glimpses of from WWJDN.

Yes, I was angry in my earlier post because of all the slamming I was getting by a very small minority of immoral people who want it their way only. I want this behavior to be illegal (as it has been for thousands of years), much like not wearing a seatbelt, they can choose to ignore the law but if they get caught or flaunt their abuse they pay the price as with any other law.
