Whatever. Have a good time watching Big Brother or Surviror or Paradise Hotel or 25 hours of pro sports this week. Forget about the people that are attempting to advance their agendas, which just might infringe on you or your liberty, by getting political power and influencing the laws of the land.
Some FR posters live in towns where gays keep a low profile, so they tend to overreact when seeing openly gay people or discussing gay issues.
I consider myself über-conservative, but I have lived many years in California and Florida near the large population centers.
Gays don't bother me, since I know that most of them are too busy living their lives to even worry about "taking over" anything. The few times gay men have tried to pick me up at the gym or the beach, I have just told them I'm not interested; they always leave alone.
Btw, are you near Carmel, the most beautiful coastal town in California?
