You do know there is a difference between natural (or inalienable) rights and legal (or civil) rights? The 14th Amendment guarantees the latter to all equally.

How many sentences is required to be on-topic, according to you? More than one?

The facts are ... all of this is relevant to the OP .... watch the video ... lots of stuff covered .... the whole enchilada is wrapped in that video ... the question is Good or Bad ... and which ever way you go, there is a thing called subsequent discussion ... otherwise, we'd have 39 pages of "Yes" or "No".
maybe I should of used the term "apples to oranges" your post was much like that. which is another way to side step the issue. every right you have I have as does any body who resides in the USA, homosexual or otherwise

people whining for social change and civil rights is ok with you only if you agree with it? the squeaky wheel gets the grease.

pedophiles by the way are about power and manipulation more than any sexual orientation.
No, you're dead wrong. People who molest children are weak ... and frightened and mentally unstable, and greatly fear adult intimacy because of their own deep seated insecurities. That's why they use children, as they are more easily manipulated and represent less of a threat to expose their own perceived inadequacies. They also have a real preoccupation and need for instant sexual gratification that they find difficult to satisfy with discerning adults, who reject them because of the bad vibes these creeps broadcast.

I agree a pervert is a pervert, you brought them up with regards to homosexuality, which seems a stretch of a tie in.

Actually the video used children to promote the Homosexual agenda. It is targeted for children or they would have used adults.

Well, perhaps I need to rephrase also ... since you don't seem to understand what I'm saying.

Show me the amendment that says "The right for the people to marry whom ever they choose and regardless of gender, and to with all marriage privileges are due, shall not be infringed".

Show me that.

What I'm saying is, that marriage is not a right ... it's a privilege. You wanna know the easiest way to tell the difference between a right and a privilege? If you have to ask for permission (i.e. apply for a license from the State) it is a privilege ..... just as sure as driving a car is. Ever hear the authorities speak of suspending your "driving privileges" ?

Privileges can not be demanded by invoking "Civil Rights" ... because they aren't rights. If it is a right .. you don't need someone else's permission to exercise a right, because a right cannot be denied. Is that more clear now?

Let's look again at the statement "Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. Don't confuse yourself here .... you have a right to life because the "state" didn't grant you life .. that came from your creator. You have a right to Liberty .. because you were born with it ... born free! And you have a right to "pursue" happiness, but no guarantee of happiness ... only the right to pursue it.

Either you aren't reading all of the posts, or you disagree. The data shows that homosexuals account for 1/3 of the child molestations, while only representing a small fraction of the society. The figures are roughly TEN TIMES more likely that a homosexual commits child molestation, compared to a heterosexual.

This was in response to a claim that most acts of molestation of boys is done by heterosexuals ... which is patently absurd nonsense, and why I posted the truth.
