My God what a retarded thread! But what do you expect from the anti-Gay crowd! Really? We hate Guns? How do you think we are going to protect ourselves when the likes of you try to "round up" Gays and put them in FEMA camps?
Pretty lame hypothesis that sexuality is correlated with gun ownership.
The more someone supports guns the straighter they are????
I've heard some pretty stupid arguments but that one is up there.
I guess cartoons are the best one can expect from a raging alcoholic who has 210 drinks a week.
In other words, if you are a man and you drink only four standard drinks per day, but you drink four every day, you are drinking 28 drinks per week -- twice the recommended level for low-risk alcohol consumption. Likewise, drinking four drinks a day four times a week would also exceed the guidelines.

how long did it take you to come up with "teabagger?" oh that's right, liberals didn't come up with that. I think it came from porn. how long did it take you to come up with the "rush limbaugh" defense?
In this usage, it came from tea party members and organisations.

To wittle it down, why should I support gay marriage when most gays tend to be anti 2nd amendment? Do we support all Constitutional rights or just those we agree with?
As a side note, I encourage you liberals to check my posting history recently. I have been nothing but supportive of gay marriage.
The fact still remains, when the inevitable happens and I go to the ballot box in Oregon to vote on gay marriage one day, I can't help but to see hypocrisy in this group so ardent for their own constitutional rights while infringing on mine.
The short answer is because you support gay marriage, and what gay people think of gun rights is irrelevant. Otherwise you're basing your opinions on reciprocity and nothing else. In that case, why would you support gun rights in the first place? It becomes a vicious cycle that goes beyond your control.
The long answer is identity politics are silly. Based on your posting history, my guess is you see yourself as a representative of "strong" America that must battle against the whimpification forces, which includes groups such as overly protective women, anti-gun advocates, and gays in general. I could be wrong, but I suspect you'd be totally fine with a gay guy who otherwise exhibited hegemonic masculinity, but are derisive towards the feminine acting ones. I think it is somewhat normal for young guys to think this way (including some otherwise masculine gay guys) but it still is a type of homophobia that we don't always realize exists because it's so engrained in our culture. So who cares if there are gay people who have pigeon-holed themselves into a certain identity - gay marriage and gun rights have nothing to do with each other.
