I know people who do. That's all I'm saying without a lawyer present.
Bet you never exhaled....

I know people who do. That's all I'm saying without a lawyer present.
I wasnt going to get into this because, as you say, it isnt really any of your business, but I cant sit by and listen to the hate anymore from people who know not of what they speak.
First off, I've never been to a 'pride event' and have no need or interest in going. There are many, many gay people who would fit into this category.
Secondly, please explain to me how my BF of 4 1/2 years and I offer a negative value to society?
We both have jobs, pay our taxes, keep our house and yard up and pretty much keep to ourselves. If we were to "get married" how would that affect your marriage or anyone elses? If the far right is so hell bent on "marriage protection" then perhaps you all need to get together and force your represenatives to construct and pass an "ANTI DIVORCE" law. That would be the only way I can think of to truly "protect marriage".
I want to be able to live my life with the one I love and have the same legal protections that heteros have. We've been together longer and benefitted society more than a lot of hetero couples I know.
But I guess as long as Brittney picks a guy to marry she can have as many 48 hour marriages as she likes, right? And regarding your over simplified version of what exactly happens at ALL/ONLY? Pride events, you've obviously never watched an episode of Cops filmed during Mardi Gras. Or Girls/Guys Gone Wild on Spring Break.

First of all, I do not ‘hate’ you or any other human being (just like I am), and if you imply that I do not know what I speak, how so? I grew up (late teens) in a GAY friendly community in the late 60’s and had some great ‘GAY’ friends. Do I have to be ‘GAY’ to understand?
The GLBT as an “ORGANization†that passes out propaganda and disinformation. They are of negative value as they “promote†the ‘gay’ life choice and demote heterosexuality. Somewhere in the last 40 years, being GBLT went from deviant behavior to an ‘alternate lifestyle’ and is now obfuscated into ‘sexual orientation’.
Sexual orientation? WTF is that? If you are confused of your ‘sex’ just look between your legs! You are either an innie or an outie, no doubts about it!

I understand how you can not see this and you will never understand why I do.
So do I! You know, I really do not GAS what consenting adults do in their own homes until you tell me mine is wrong and yours is right! You do know I live in the SF Bay area? I have neighbors that are G&L and we all get along just fine. Anytime you need help moving furniture or want to borrow my lawn mower, just ask.
Just keep your hands off of my Tool and I will not thump you with my Bible!![]()

Let’s get to ‘Another’ part of the issues:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[/b]
Prop 22 was voted in by the people and for the people in a popular election vote. The GLBT organizations, lobbyists, and liberal judges overturned the will of the majority.
(U knows democratic society N’Chit).
Prop 8 went into litigation from minute 1.
You want to see examples of ‘hate and bigotry’, take a look at the GBLT “ORGANization†agenda.
The ‘Domestic Partnership’ laws have been written into almost every law and ‘social’ code in the country (State and Federal).
Domestic Partnership does not include heterosexual couples with the argument that Heterosexuals can marry but the (GBLT) can not.
Is that ‘fair and equal’?
In some aspects, I would agree, with one noticeable exception: For a couple to dissolve a ‘Marriage’, it takes a judge, “typically†lawyers, and a lot of $cratch. To dissolve a domestic partnership takes a form (Notice of Termination with the Secretary of State).
Is that ‘fair and equal’?
When Prop 22 was overturned by the California State Supreme Court, there was not a great rush for GBLT to get ‘married’, in part, because the flexibility of the domestic partnership far outweighed the ramifications that a full blown ‘Marriage’ does. During the period that Prop 22 was overturned until Prop 8 was voted in, the GBLT community enjoyed both Marriage and Domestic Partnerships.
Is that ‘fair and equal’?
The GBLT “ORGANization†is in litigation to overturn Prop 8 and may very well succeed. If they do, then ‘ALL’ domestic partnership language and rights should become null and void within 30 days of decision unless the couple gets married (better start working on your pre-nuptials). 😛
The GBLT “ORGANization†is throwing this ‘label’ around trying to garnishee public opinion to promote FEAR and “GUILT’.
If you want to see ‘bigotry and hate’ just read some of the other posters around here and look no further than the GBLT “ORGANization†movement.
GOD Bless,

Outrageous response to the Vote outcome!!! :down:
Bigotry and Hate
See, it runs on both sides, and I'm not presuming that your intent was to say I should be lumped in with the link you posted any more than you are to be lumped in with the link I posted. It is out there though and sometimes, to the detriment of all, the lines start to blur when you get the extremeists on both sides.
I also do not think that the response to the Prop 8 vote is outrageous.
While I do not condone violence (and have not actively seen it being advocated on any of the sites I frequent) it does happen when tempers get heated and those who commit these crimes (on both sides) should be punished to the fullest extent of the laws.
On the other hand, all legal means necessary should be addressed in order to correct this wrong (in my opinion, I know many on here differ).
However, without showing our upset, how are we to change things?
Would you have said that sitting on the bus or not marching on DC or the women suffrage marches were also outrageous responses to something that people (in their opinion) seemed to think were outrageous to them? Isnt that part of what helped form this country? Being able to express yourself and your feelings when you think you or others have been wronged and to help bring change to make things better?
Or would some of you rather us just shut up and take it or move to another country if we dont like the way things are going?
Hopefully, the nut cases on ‘all’ sides will not influence ‘reasonable’ people into their ‘hate’ propaganda. But ‘hate’ and fear are very compelling forces of control for people that do not take the time to think/educate themselves (on all sides of the spectrum). I do not condone violence unless it is in self protection or protection of someone else (on either side of the issue), especially the weaker of the foray (which may include you and/or someone that you love) then you better shoot me!
You see this as a ‘wrong’ and I see it as a democratic process that reflects the voting rights of individuals.
Therein lays our diametrically opposed positions. Women and ethnics never had a choice. Women will always be women and ethnics will always be ethnic.
YOU have a ‘CHOICE’!
Are you going to tell Cheney that his daughter chose to be gay? Let me know when you are going to do that will you, I want to see Cheney snap your neck like a pencil.
Release your anger Luke... 😛

In 2000, 61% of Californians voted to ban same-sex marriage; on Tuesday, that figure was 52%. Further, the strongest support for Proposition 8 came from the oldest voters; the most opposition came from 18- to 29-year-olds. Just as it seemed natural to younger generations that a man of mixed race could become president, each year will bring new voters who realize that civil rights belong to all previously rejected minority groups.
Don't fight it. Your kind always looses in the end.
