It's funny how the gay community is so ready and willing to attack their own.

If a Dem was outed by a news source, lawsuits would be flying.

Funny? In what way?

Attacking..... how?



And yes, closeted political opportunists who work against gay interests for personal gain while being gay themselves DO get criticized and called out on the hypocrisy. Is that troubling to you?

For what? Slander? Libel? Only a cause of action if the statements aren't true.


And, Dem congressmen usually aren't "outed" because they don't meet the forced outing criteria: Driving an anti-gay agenda while being gay themselves.


An anti-gay constituency has the right to know that the one they've sent to Washington to be anti-gay is... actually gay... do they not? So, think of it as a service.

Yes it is. I'm sure he's going through enough internal pressure and doesn't need people like you to pile on. This is how suicides happen.

Default Aaron Schock is a victim of bullying from gay people

The very people who fight tooth and nail to get anti-bullying onto our books, particularly internet bullying, are actually BULLYING someone else on the internet. Oh the irony of it all!

I'm a gay person, and I don't think anyone should be outed.

What proof do you have that everyone who is bullying this man is gay?

So the harm he's inflicting on others by advancing an anti-gay agenda = ok?

And besides, nobody is bullying him for being gay. They're making fun of his "I'm not gay, I'm straight" façade, and they're angry that he's yet ANOTHER Republican closet case.... what's the gay equivalent of Uncle Tom?


And btw, by the way the guy hams it up for the camera he loves himself way too much to contemplate suicide. So don't worry your head about his "internal pressure."

A single unidentified person said Aaron was gay. That's bullying by all gay people?

Talk about whiney childish silliness.

Nobody has a right to know anything. It's just that the Left WANTS to know about everyone so they can use their hammer where they think it's needed.
