I've seen a ton of news stories about people proposing right after their partner returns from overseas. It's quite clear that the people upset about this have a strong anti-gay bias. The news has this crap on all the time about people proposing after returning from deployment. Plus, the couple said that it was on facebook when it got picked up by the news. So it's not like they planned it as a major publicity stunt. Some people just hate gay people and will complain about anything that makes the life of gays a little happier or a little easier in this country.

So are you ex-military dear boy ?
Upset about a Marine and a retired Marine getting married, well do the right thing and go and tell them.
I would take a touch of care though, an couple of Marines are not to be trifled with.

And I'm not sure I really believe you. If somebody posted a thread on here titled: "Male Vet Proposes to Marine Girlfriend on Base After Returning From Afghanistan" I'm suppose to believe you would be posting similar comments of disgust in it? (not that such a story would even make the news seeing as how it's probably somewhat common and a complete non-issue).



Disgust with homosexuality is an innate and unchangeable biological characteristic designed to protect us from novel pathogens carried by those who engage in non-traditional sex acts (anal intercourse).

Innate and unchangable...isn't that the reason liberals believe homosexuals should be a protected class?

How in God's name did you extract that conclusion from this review?

If anything that article makes a case for resisting heterosexual reproduction practices:

"Sexual contact with others exposes individuals to a much higher risk for contracting sexually transmitted diseases (e.g. syphilis). In addition, given the intimate physical proximity associated with mating behaviour, it also facilitates transmission of other pathogens as well.

Not really. You are aware of what comes out of vaginas, right? LOTS of pathogens in that stuff.

God didn't make it innate among animals. Maybe God likes gay animals.

Noted.

An insinuation that we should model our behavior so as not to upset would-be terrorists...
