Do you smell that? It is the BS coming from your link. Sounds like a homosexual in hiding.

Conservatism is much more of a mental disease since it's based on fear and ignorance.

After the Ball--Why the Homosexual Movement Has Won

Conceiving their book as a "gay manifesto for the 1990s," the authors called for homosexuals to repackage themselves as mainstream citizens demanding equal treatment, rather than as a promiscuous sexual minority seeking greater opportunity and influence.

Writing just as the AIDS crisis hit its greatest momentum, the authors saw the disease as an opportunity to change the public mind. "As cynical as it may seem, AIDS gives us a chance, however brief, to establish ourselves as a victimized minority legitimately deserving of America's special protection and care," they wrote.

Give them credit: they really did understand the operation of the public mind. Kirk and Madsen called for homosexuals to talk incessantly about homosexuality in public. "Open, frank talk makes gayness seem less furtive, alien, and sinful; more above board," they asserted. "Constant talk builds the impression that public opinion is at least divided on the subject, and that a sizeable bloc--the most modern, up-to-date citizens--accept or even practice homosexuality."

Nevertheless, not all talk about homosexuality is helpful. "And when we say talk about homosexuality, we mean just that. In the early stages of the campaign, the public should not be shocked and repelled by premature exposure to homosexual behavior itself. Instead, the imagery of sex per se should be downplayed, and the issue of gay rights reduced, as far as possible, to an abstract social question."

Portraying homosexuals as victims was essential to their strategy. Offering several principles for tactical advance in their cause, the authors called upon homosexuals to "portray gays as victims of circumstance and depression, not as aggressive challengers." This would be necessary, they argued, because "gays must be portrayed as victims in need of protection so that straights will be inclined by reflex to adopt the role of protector."

You're using a Freeperville thread, a site known for gay bashers, race baiters, and the mentally unstable to gather and espouse hate filled diatribe as your source?

Yes we know, you hate gays so much, which makes me question your sexuality.

Actually "No Shirt, No Shoes, No Service" is a health regulation.

"No Gays" is discrimination.

Do you realize how patently absurd the information in your link is? Nobody is going to take you seriously when you believe junk like that. You obviously have no interest in the truth, you merely will cling to any nonsense that justifies hatred.

I DO NOT hate homosexuals, I feel sorry for them quite honestly. I DO NOT an any way treat them badly, I am just sick how they push their views on the rest of society by lying and manipulation.
