Couldn't such a demand be considered a hate crime now? After all, gays now have more "rights" than the rest of us.

Homosexuals are well off, usually both partners work bringing in double incomes where they have no children to bring up and pay for. In NJ, they usually go into the inner city and make a community for themselves buying up the older victorian mansions and fixing them up. Years ago in NJ, most of the rich people lived in what is now called an Inner city or ghetto, so there are a lot of large victorian homes which can be purchased and restored. Let's face it these sweethearts love to decorate.

That's only because it's always been a closed society. They give each other job preference, and make sure to give out high paying jobs. They've ALWAYS practiced the same discrimination they accuse the other 99% of us of doing.

My best friend was gay - he died of AIDS a few years ago - he explained how it all worked to me.

That pastor should pass out copies of the actual law to the legislators and enforcement officers. My heart goes out to him and all those who show up to protest. That's not going to be a pretty sight.

[Ben Mach, a New Orleans insurance agent:] "Southern Decadence is an opportunity to meet good people from all over the country who are nice and sweet.

Hence the name. "Decadence" always brings to mind "nice and sweet." Leave it up to those nasty Christians to associate such a loving word with debauchery, decay, and amorality.

But not everybody comes for those reasons."

Uh, Ben ... I hate to break your balloon, but NOBODY comes for those reasons. If you guys are so proud of being homosexual, why do you constantly try to hide your perversion behind this smokescreen of "camaraderie" and brotherhood? Why don't you just come out and admit that events like this provide an excellent place to find new men you can bugger?

Ah, he's probably not talking about physical training. A "corporate trainer" is usually someone who trains computer users in using the corporation's software, etc.

The Southern Decadence Festival started in the French Quarter for the 32nd straight year on Wednesday and will draw an estimated 110,000 people, mainly gay men, from around the world. To the participants, Decadence is the ultimate Bourbon Street blowout, full of good, not-so-clean fun.

There's something queer about that sentence.

Like at the YMCA? This group tarnished the image of an American Christian institution. Why they still play this song at heterosexual weddings (at the reception) is beyond me.

Disgusting pigs.

It's about time right-thinking people are standing up to the homosexual agenda juggernaut.

Can we borrow a couple of these preachers for Tampa, Fl?
Cant go to Guavaween anymore-way too sick for normal people.
Cant go to Gasparilla anymore, way to sick for normal people.
It sometimes seems like a group of sick sexual deviants live on trust funds, and travel a circuit to define deviancy down throughout the USA.
Has anyone done a study yet? //sarcasm.

Yes it is vile, but we here in New Orleans can thank the straights also for embracing and promoting the myth of this city as an anything-goes destination for sex tourism.

Last Friday a co-worker confided that he & (third) wife would be headed down to the French Quarter for some Decadence laughs, as they do every year. To him, it's amusing -- an opportunity to enjoy some innocent shocks at an open air freak show, while congratulating himself on his own sophistication. I didn't bother to tell him that if he buys into the idea of the gay subculture as colorful and clever, he's been queered too -- no matter whom he sleeps with.

violators can get a 10-day jail sentence.....oh wow gee, not ten whole day's??????????

"We're trying to inform tourists about the law," said Rip Naquin, a festival promoter. "We don't want to see these tourists have to pay $2,000 or $3,000 to get out of jail. We want them to spend that $2,000 or $3,000 on the local economy."....it's all about the money!!!!!
