You are not gay and have no clue on what you are talking about. People are born gay or straight, not made gay. Why would gays have to perpetuate themselves when all you straights keep making more of us. Nearly everyone born is from sex between a man and a woman, wether we are gay or straight. It is the torture of hiding ones sexuality from the cruelty of society that destroys lives of gay people, that and the destructive bullying of their heterosexual peers. Being gay or lesbian does not destroy ones life, it is the vagaries of society that does that by creating laws that ban us from full equality, thus making us second class US citizens, even though we pay taxes the same as everyone else. What is so abhorrent about the "lifestyle" you seem to think we lead. Last time I noticed, I do not live any differently than my straight counterparts, one could not tell I am gay from my house, my clothing or me personally. Unless they ask or I tell them, they do not know I am gay, same as with any straight person I meet or know. I do not know their sexuality unless they mention a wife or husband of the opposite sex.

She says more people died of AIDS then have died in terrorist attacks in the past 15 years and therefore homosexuals are more dangerous than terrorists. With that kind of logic shouldn't we be going after McDonald's and the like because when it comes to killing Americans, obesity takes the prize.

The fact is, its inane logic. AIDS is a horrible thing, but it is not just a homosexual thing, it affects everyone

Refute her statement that gays are more dangerous than terrorists?


What are you afraid of, do you think they will chase you down the street, tackle you, dress you in fashionable clothes and do your hair?

So, you don't think homosexuality is at all to blame for any of the aids epidemic?
