Regardless, I do NOT spend my time thinking about what that intimate relationship might entail, because the details are not at all interesting to me. So, when I read explicit comments about homosexual acts from people who purport to be straight, I have to wonder why that is.
I used to wonder that too. Not anymore: Most Homophobes are Gay

No hate at all and no insecurity here, just plain ole knowing I am dead on right and actually have some moral values to know that two men having sex is what I call INSECURITY because maybe they cannot get a decent woman maybe? Now that must be hate to know that you have to dream of having sex male with male knowing that no woman wants you for some reason.

Tell me, what attracts a male sexually to another male? It has to be something.

Just do not hate me for me having moral values and knowing I am right.
Sweetheart, I don't hate you. I feel sorry for you. Two different things. Also, your explanation about being gay due to not getting a decent woman clearly shows your ignorance (willful at that).

When someone disagrees with me, it is not hate. When someone uses the vile language you used and tries to limit my rights, that is hate. See the difference? No? Didn't think you would

I thought you were a Libertarian. Perhaps I'm thinking of someone else.

Lets hope it stays that way. All those californians need to go elsewhere and stop moving there.Montana is still a great state to live in.

This is an anonymous discussion forum. The idea of someone not voting in a poll because they're afraid of having it "used against them" in other discussions is ludicrous and, I believe, a likely indicator of paranoid personality disorder.

You were ambiguous and kept repeating, "what is your definition of normal or natural". I told you to go and search the archives if you want to know what my definition is as it pertains to the subject of homosexuality.

This is a discussion forum, I am sticking to the subject of this thread.

If you have questions for me which don't pertain to this thread then send me a direct message. I'm not trolling on this thread nor am I here to entertain trolls.
Ok direct message sent.

Already on page one shows the perfect example of questioning someones vote.

This and many others by this poster is only intended to put someone on record so they can use it against you in other post.

Here is my vote, so start your attacks.

Good for Montana!

A marriage is between a man and a woman, not two people who have a chemical issue in their brains that attract two people of the same sex to each other.

I like it when someone calls their little friend "partner".

It makes be want to puke thinking about two diseased, chemical imbalanced, not right goofs wanting to have sex with each other.


Liberal hypocrites anyway.

Does everyone now see the liberals here using the government this and the government that excuses in every thread?

The people VOTED to outlaw two weirdos getting married and what did the loons do? They ran their crying buts to the government trying to overturn the WILL OF THE MAJORITY OF THE PEOPLE.

What we need is a vote on this issue, a federal vote.

Vote to ban it or vote to allow it. Yes or No.

Willing to bet the YES votes to ban and make it illegal would win.
Wow so many things wrong with this post. First off, if you don't want to answer the poll and get "attacked" (as you say) then don't answer it, free country. Second, why is someone questioning someones view on something all of a sudden "attacking someone"? Do you know how debate works? Its when someone says something and if some other person doesn't agree with that they come in and speak their mind. If this concept is too much for you, you may be in the wrong forum. Third, you may also want to think about reading things a little more carefully rather than just assume what the thread is about and going from there. This thread is NOT about outlawing gay marriage (there are already plenty of threads like that) this thread is about the Montana GOP wanting to make homosexuality itself illegal. Not gays getting married, not gays having sex, not gays living together, homosexuality period. If you have any "chemical issue" in your brain even if you have never kissed a man and are single, you as a being are illegal. Get it right, then come back and continue your bigotry.

Thank you for reinforcing my beliefs, and illustrating them with pretty much the same tone that Nazis did in the 1930s. Here it is again...

"I would like to develop a couple of ideas for you on the question of homosexuality. There are those homosexuals who take the view: what I do is my business, a purely private matter. However, all things which take place in the sexual sphere are not the private affair of the individual, but signify the life and death of the nation, signify world power...

...In the SS, today, we still have about one case of homosexuality a month. In a whole year, about eight to ten cases occur in the entire SS. I have now decided upon the following: in each case, these people will naturally be publicly degraded, expelled, and handed over to the courts. Following completion of the punishment imposed by the court, they will be sent, by my order, to a concentration camp, and they will be shot in the concentration camp, while attempting to escape. I will make that known by order to the unit to which the person so infected belonged. Thereby, I hope finally to have done with persons of this type in the SS, and the increasingly healthy blood which we are cultivating for Germany, will be kept pure."
- Heinrich Himmler, Feb 18, 1937


Nazism is alive and well, in principle, right here in America.

I think you have it wrong, too. In 1997, the Montana Supreme Court overturned the state sodomy laws. The Montana GOP has added a statement to its 2010 platform it supports the will of the people of Montana to outlaw homosexual acts regardless of the Supreme Court decision.
