The conservative approach is to outright ban actions they don't approve of for arbitrary reasons. Sure, liberals will censor opposing ideas, but to compare getting in trouble for saying 'gays are bad' on CNN or something to not allowing two people who love each other to get married is just whiney and pathetic. Especially since ideas that may get backlash on CNN can be said on Fox and no one will say a word.
I have nothing against gays. If both people are 18 or older and everything is consensual; they want to be together, great. Have fun. But I am so damn tired of hearing about it every day. You can't watch the news or turn on your internet or TV anymore without being bombarded with someone kissing a gay's behind.
Alright. You're gay. Congrats. Here's a lollipop. Equal rights for all. Now SHUT UP about it already.
WELL HONEY! it's JUNE which is GAY PRIDE MONTH! So simmer down for some Gay fest!

Now you know what having "Heterosexuality" being flaunted in your face 24/7 feels like!

I feel that way about straights thinking they're so damn special that everything should only be about them & they complain & whine if some other group gets attention.
I'm torn on the gay issue as well because I am still trying to sort my own feelings out and that takes time. However, the extreme actions of the far right forces me to land on the side of the activists, almost on every issue, because I am against any behavior which discriminates, bully and otherwise results in mean comments and behavior. I am devasted when I hear how gays and others suffer at the hands of evil folks. I just wish that the conversation can simply focus on treating folks in a fair, equal and respectful manner....period.
I believe we happen to be living through significant lifestyle changes and that historically has always generated controversy. Media has chosen to oversaturate us with messaging supporting the LGBT causes and that is by design. That is one of the keys ways to effect social change. I'm concerned about media images because I don't won't my grandson to be negatively influenced about many topics that are blasted at us on TV. So consequently, he only watch what his parents have taped for him which is less than 2 hours per week.
Last, the gay lobbyists have done a masterful job in making sure this topic has stayed in the faces of us all and forcing folks to make a decision. I'm not mad at them for a job well done.
