Another DUH.
Talking about being gay is not the same as telling someone they have to be gay

same as talking about being black is not the same as grabbing some random white person and telling them they must now identify as being black(which is what you are claiming )

it is indeed a DUH moment, but not in your favor. Again, you cant be serious, you destroyed your own argument.

Was there a club that had to tell you about liking girls? Nope.

So why are there clubs to tell kids to be LGBTQ? That's where the brainwashing is.
I'm sure most of the kids joining the LGBTQ club are joining because they are...LGBTQ.

Im 29, and I can remember being 10 and my neighbor being put in jail because he identified his roommate as his boyfriend. It meant the police officer could confirm he was gay and therefore at some point committed sodomy understate law .

Again, there is no way your post is serious unless you are oblivious to what has happened to gay people around the world and specifically here in the US.
What are you talking about.

Are you seriously stating that gay people are jailed just for being gay today in the US?

Better get the word out to all those clubs so they stop meeting.

This breaks down the laws pretty good if you want to read https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LGBT_r..._United_States.

The last states didn't decimalize same-sex sexual intercourse until 2003

I'm well aware of the history.

The posters pretending that cops are out rounding up people just because they are gay on a daily basis, well, that's insane.

Well the poster show he's in Alabama and currently 29, when he was 10 that would have been 2002 and sodomy was still illegal in Alabama at that time.

just a guess...

Nazis murdered children, so we can do whatever we like to them now because it's not as bad?

I can quote instances of injustice from history as well. Are cops rounding up gays and arresting them today? No.

And if it happened in 2002, as you are claiming when it happened, that poster can link to the documentation that proves his neighbor was arrested for whatever he thinks he was arrested for. Be happy to take a look at the charges. Rather than just accept the memory of a 10 y old, as you are claiming he was.


My gay neighbor had an affair with a married man he worked with. Married man became enraged when he broke it off. Threatened him at work, which was a public/government organization. At one point gay neighbor took refuge at our house as married man was driving around the neighborhood looking for him. My sister drove gay neighbor's car into our back yard to hide it so it looked like he wasn't even home. We protected him.

Gay neighbor negotiated 1 year off with full pay and a job change to a higher pay scale when he returned, because the company did not want a lawsuit. This was about 1997.

So there's that.

The trajectory is tolerate -- accept -- promote.

We are in the promote stage. it's not enough that you tolerate, it's not enough that you accept, you have to promote it as an ally.

That's what these clubs have done. If you don't promote it, you're a bigot.

There is no promoting. Normalizing is not promoting -- it's normalizing it.

I don't know what kids you have interacted with to have such a poor perception about kids today.
