They can't help it. They speak what is in their mind. In other words, such statements are actually a window into their thought process.

I think being anything but moderate and a christian should be a felony.

Its just scary that people still believe its right to vote for issues regarding minorities.

Being gay is more of a slap on the wrist affair.

Looks to me that 87% saying "being gay" shouldn't be a felony. But the numbers would be different if you'd ask if the act of homosexuality itself should be a felony. Personally I don't think being gay itself should be a crime but the act of homosexuality should be.
What 'act' is that?

The one which 43.5% of heterosexual men and 36% of heterosexual women engage in?

Or did you mean two women holding hands?

However some states still have the law banning sodomy in their lawbooks but it's not enforceable.
You must have been really pissed when women got the vote back in your day...

However, you're doing well to be using the intenet when you're in your 90's.

I'm 19. Or is a simple click on "view profile" too hard for you? But what do women voting have anything to do with this? Typical of you people twisting things around...

It's like looking into an open sewer.
