The bottom line is that homosexuals are embarrassed by this. Even as you struggle for freedoms, you also struggle with the homosexual identity itself. You'd love to be viewed as "normal," and then a few jackasses show up and start throwing glitter on people. Glitter? Really? It makes homosexuals look stupid, and you know it. That's why there are 30+ pages on this thread....and responses like yours.....to try to compensate for the perception that you KNOW comes along with a homosexual throwing glitter. It fits, and you hate it.
Those males throwing glitter, makes them appear effeminate. Those females throwing glitter, makes them appear masculine. All those up in arms and calling for criminal action, makes them look stupid.
The book thrown at Obama was thrown by a lefty, Reagan, and Bush, and Nixon were all Republicans.. Thanks for trying to list attacks against left wingers, by right wingers, even if the attempt failed.
I knew you'd come up with some excuse about the book thrown at Obama. How do YOU know it was a lefty. How do you know the people who threw stuff at the others were "lefties". Nice defection. Politicians get stuff thrown at them. It's not right, but it happens.
Michelle Bachmann is the third Republican Candidate who has been openly attacked with glitter thrown at them by Gay Activists and the authorities do nothing. Apparently there is an organized movement by Gays to make their statement by throwing glitter at candidates who disagree with them.
"The liberal organization GetEQUAL is promoting these attacks on any politician who disagrees with their position on gay marriage. In addition, they are offering to train anyone who might be interested in learning how to attack a politician."
The organized bullying continues and is becoming more brazen.
If I was glittered, yes, there would be a homo on the ground. Can't speak for other folks. Why are you asking me?

You already lost the fight by showing abject fear.
Did you know some football players are gay...and men built like football players??? Bet ya wouldn't tackle them
PS: I'm not gay, just believe that ALL taxpayers should recieve the same rights as all others or NOT pay taxes.
Feeling as you say you do you are admitting to being far enough left that you think anything done to a right leaning politician is ok. I feel sorry for you if you really are as you say, because you allowed political feeling to affect how you are as a human being.
Sorry, but you guys are being overly dramatic and, frankly, incredibly dishonest. Getting glitter on you is not a violent assault, and if you think it is, you've never experienced or seen a real one. Second, when you have these people saying you are basically sub-human on a regular basis, where you don't deserve to be with the person you love in the kind of relationship you want, when you don't have equal protections by law, when you can face discrimination in employment, housing, etc... and you guys sit there and suggest that dumping some glitter is the assault here?? Talk about having your priorities mixed up.
On a side note, what do you suggest gays do about this? What form of protest would you not find more violent than dumping glitter? Let's face it, it wasn't the glitter that bothers some of you so much. It wasn't that it was dumped/thrown at someone. It bothers you that gays are speaking out at all. It bothers you that public opinion is turning against you. That's what you're really angry about.
Gay Rights is a term used by a group of people in an attempt to prove that they have certain rights. I think that most of our rights are listed in the Constitution and those Framers didn't even know about the Gay movement as it was about 200 years from being an entity.
Gay privilege makes sense, but the rights part just means nothing.
Gays have existed in every society throughout the course of history, and have been viewed in very different ways than what you are suggesting. Open a book... or google.
