Why in the world would you go somewhere you so obviously hate?

You want to go somewhere because you can? That doesn't make much sense.

No, it's because you lost the argument.

That doesn't have to do with gays either.
When did I ever say I have only been one time? And I have a ton of family up there and a ton who moved down here. And every time my family from up there comes down here they talk about how nice and friendly the people down here are.

And please explain to me why I didn't get any stares from other blacks? Answer that one for me with your superior northern intellect. Please! I do beseech you.

What was I arguing about? I believe the only argument I had was that gay people can, in fact, hold hands in Texas. I don't believe I lost that one!

Why gays? Penalization of sodomy (undertsood as oral or anal intercourse) between myself and my wife would affect me, too? And I do not really care if this laws is enforced or not but it is there. Why?

I think you are missing the point which is that the state of Texas insisted on regulating such aspects of human lives that I believ should be left to the people themselves to decide. The great state of Texas believes that it is OK for me to own and carry a lethal weapon but it is not OK for me and my wife to decide what we are going to do with in our own bedroom. This is what I call conservative hypocrisy. It's a matter of principle, do you get it?
