I couldn't care less if he marries a goat. I just wish the people of Mass. would finally get rid of this idiot.

I agree. How is this even newsworthy? Headline should have been titled "Housing crisis crook will marry gay lover."

Since my post got deleted, yes women were the property of their husbands until 1796, and could be legally raped until 1993.

Because there is nothing to make someone disapprove of homosexuality except bigotry and hate. There is no logical or rational reason to demonize 2 consenting adults who fall in love, but happen to have the same anatomy. It's almost exclusively based on religious ignorance.

You seem to think that you have the right to deny anyone who does not embrace your sexuality their right to their opinion as well as freedom of speech. Talk about bigots . . . .

Conflicted much?
You call being gay a perversion, and you think you deserve a single drop of respect?

You can believe whatever ridiculous things you want. But be prepared to be called out on it.

Regular heterosexual persons like myself really don't give a crap about LGBT.

Ask any gay person in San Francisco and he/she will tell you:
If you're openly gay, you're a Democrat. If you're closet gay, you're a Republican.

.
This is certainly true of homophobic men!

Homosexuality, whether you like it or not, is here to stay and will become more and more present as a society norm. It's been around since the first rock was created on earth...so learn to live with it.

I have no problem with them living however they please, but all the childish labeling and name calling simply because everyone doesn't love their lifestyle only serves to confirm how self absorbed, bigotted and hateful that they are.

Your theory with regards to closeted homosexuality may or may not be true. Not being in agreement with sexual perversion does not make me a bigot, it makes me an individual who is entitled to my opinions like anyone else. Labeling and name calling by those who disagree with the opinions of others is bigoted, juvenile and hateful.
You keep calling being gay sexual perversion and deviance, and then you're accusing us of being hateful?

There is nothing inherently hateful about either of those terms, nor with other clinical words like malignant, virulent, suppurating, or septic (nor, for that matter with words like gay, swish, momser, or teabag). They are smply descriptors.

Words only become hateful when the intension of the user is hateful.

When an anti-gay person uses those words, it's used in a negative manner. This isn't rocket science. I don't call heterosexuals perverted, and they do everything gays do in much greater number.
