What is that supposed to mean?

Nobody wants to see gay sexual acts in public. These gays need to keep it in the closet. There could have been children at an impressionable age present.

This type of stuff is the reason so many people turn gay these days.

That doesn't mean much coming from a non-believer:

You people are destroying the values and morality of this great nation.

You people? lol

You don't know what I believe, but I DO believe your kind of ignorance will one day go the way of the dinosaurs.

Just curious, how many "gay sexual acts" do you see on a daily basis?

Based on that number, how would that contribute to "turning people gay these days"?

Oh I agree. Even heterosexual acts should stay private. Leave those public sex acts to dogs, cats, horses and cows, right?

Of course. So should those straights. Do you think the closet should have lights? How about foam mattresses? Nobody likes rug burns.

Oh my gosh!!! I never thought of that!!

We should make sure that there is no display like that in public. I mean, no more good bye kisses or hugs at the airport... what if the 'lil ones see that. They might be scarred for life!

Ut oh. You mean if you saw that stuff, you might turn gay? Yikes, what do you think you would do... stay in the closet or out of it?

Speak for yourself. Personally, my life didn't change one iota when I watched "Brokeback Mountain."

Now you can say my reaction is bigoted or whatever other name calling you care to attribute to it. However try looking at it from a perspective outside of your own. For example, some people get queasy at the sight of blood. Some actually vomit as well. Now there is no prejudiced or bigoted reason they physically get ill, but it happens to them.
The same is true of people who see homosexuals kissing or engaging in public display's. Yet why should people have to, unless it is part of the slippery slope going from sodomy becoming legal to a redefinition of what was the historical meaning of marriage is, to finally being forced to witness homosexual affection in public.
What has changed with them to where they kept their business private (other than the Castro district in SF)to now wanting to make others witness it?



I am not sure, but some certainly could be. We do not know what those two were doing, so maybe a lewd/lascivious law might be applicable to their initial actions. Maybe they were told to leave the store and refused.
Maybe they merely gave each other a peck on the lips like a mother/daughter might, and the cop over reacted like they were French kissing. I was not there, but will not go by an agenda driven story either.

You should know that many times prosecutors choose not to pursue certain types of cases, and vigorously go after others. Prime examples are so called "hate crimes". White person harming a minority will likely be a hate crime, yet known racially motivated crimes against whites by minorities are not prosecuted that way.
Neither of us nor most in this thread have any direct knowledge as to what reason/s it was not prosecuted. It could be as you speculate there was no case, or the initial action by the LEO was not warranted. Yet it could also be the prosecutor is liberal, or didn't want to take such a non-PC case to court even if the assault/battery charges could have been.



I see what you are saying, but aberrant sexual behavior toward the same sex is not something a majority of people wish to witness. However as I said before, I really do not want to see two heteros going at it either beyond just a small peck in public.
The personal difference for me is that it makes me sick to my stomach to see two guys doing anything, so I will avoid areas or events (sections of SF or Fantasy Fest in Key West) like the plague.
So just like some people avoid the sight of blood (even their own during donations or wound repair) because it makes them sick, I do not understand why some others cannot understand it even if it does not bother them.

`
I wouldn't say you're a bigot for not wanting to see a same sex couple kissing, though your comments on sodomy speak otherwise, personally I know lesbians, "lesbian" porn does nothing for me, but only because I know/known real lesbians. I don't like being around thugs, and gangsters, but I'm not a self-hating bastard. Though you seem so vehement, and adament about such distaste of lgbt people, it's hard to just sit here and take seriously your proclamation of not being a bigot. Really, you could've just left it at; not liking PDAs in general, and skipped the details of avoiding gay places.

As far as the "historical meaning of marriage," that's been gone for a long time, it's about tax benefits, health benefits- legal benefits, for the most part, out of love, and that isn't always there either. Used to be, and still is in most places, a political movement, or business deal.

Most people don't want to see mixed couples kissing, or in general- it repulses them. Why should somebody be desensitized because they are okay with something, and via hollywood, of all things, here's a view that isn't your own; what if people just think it's okay(for whatever reason), or feel that it's fair that an adult should be abke to marry an adult. You can marry your 3rd cousin in some states, a person on death row, or with multiple life sentances can marry a person. How's that for a different view point? A person isn't exposed blood, I get the analogy, but the example is a poor one. You'll never be a paragon in here.
