So because more people are coming out you say it's acceptable to attack them. You sound like a drunk husband trying to justify beating your wife.
I'm not justifying vigilante attacks but am saying that your behavior is making them more likely all in the supposed name protecting them (if you were truly serious about protecting them then you would stop that which breeds a climate of vigilante attacks)

If you were truly interested in stopping attacks you would end your terrorist tactics.

So you don't think that minorities should have rights. Okay.
calling gays a minority is insult to all true minorities in this country.

Good grief, what a bunch of sick people, They go after the children and claim they have no agenda beyond equal rights, yeah looks more like brainwashing to me.

Yes, you probably were.

Terrorism? Your attacks on gays is terrorism. How many have you beaten up because you don't like them? You're deplorable with your actions, how could you?

Well, of course to you, you want to round them up.

UPDATE: Wedding Canceled! But not before 5,700 signatures were collected on the petition calling for the marriage of Bert and Ernie.

"The question of whether "Sesame Street" puppets Bert and Ernie might get married - as thousands of online petitioners have urged - was answered with a definite no Thursday when their creators said they were just "best friends" who "do not have a sexual orientation."
"More than 5,700 people have signed an online petition at Change.org urging the striped-shirt-wearing puppets, who sleep in the same room and whose sexuality has long been debated, be allowed to wed."

Good news. Some sanity (or fear of funding loss) remains.

That is good news and the right thing to do.

Oh, that's too bad. If the wedding would have happened, I was excited for my 18 month old and 4.5 year old to also learn about pre-marital sex and pregnancy from puppets. You know, when Elmo knocked up Abby.

Since both topics would have been completely appropriate for preschool television.

And you think our children are not being targeted?

Suddenly it all become clear... the irrational love of imaginary mammoths, the cookie addiction, my strange need to count objects in a room upon entry, those Tuesday nights when I climb naked into my garbage bin at 3:00 AM just to feel the warm, wet refuse against my skin, and now the secret homosexual feelings for my roommates... Sesame Street is to blame!! Who do I sue?
