My Black friends really don't like being compared to gays, they don't agree with the comparison and are frankly pissed that their struggles are used as a argument for gay marriage or gay special rights.
Gays can vote, Gays can go where they want, drink out of the same water faucet, ride anywhere on the bus.
Black gays can't marry, white gays can't marry, purple gays can't marry...
It's not a race thing, its a taste thing. Gay life is in poor taste, but it is tolerated.

No, gays, as a group, haven't been discriminated against in the same way that blacks have been, but if you don't think gays have faced oppression and violence for simply being who they are, then you're woefully unaware of history.
It's about equality. It's not about what some of your black friends like, and it's not about what you deem to be tasteful.
Are we talking about this country? Never seen or heard of rounding up gays and killing them.
I'm against locking up people with gay tendencies, but i think many are already in counseling or need it, so what was your point?
Again with the namecalling...

You acted as if gay civil rights movements are/were nothing compared to african americans. And you then made statements to make it seem as if gays have always had it cushy. And it isn't my fault you don't know history. I have some great public service announcements from the 50s that people like you probably helped author. And as for the name calling, you are basically calling myself, along with many of my friends, subhuman and sick. YOU started the namecalling genius. Whether or not your own bigotry will let you see that.

Nope, i didn't. You are reading into what you want to see.
After a half dozen posts of actual non sense on your part, you have deduced that i don't know history... Kreskin is that you????

Do you always project? You might want to meditate on what you are really trying to say before you hands hit the keys.

Are you even making the attempt to seem like you know what you are talking about? Honestly now, surely you didn't run out of steam already? Someone calls you on your bigoted nonsensical posts and you do nothing but dodge me afterwards? Typical. Know nothings *yawn*

And that is why the comparison does not work.
yeh, i realize gays have been murdered and abused. So what, so have every other nationality, profession, people and culture on the planet...
It's Planet Earth, the place of violence and stupidity.

Equality?
WHat gay is denied any constitutional rights? Name one right that they are not afforded?
What you are speaking of is special rights, Uber Equality.
Google Nambla and ACLU's free legal service to them. And its them that are disgusting.

NAMBLA has nothing to do with homosexuality.
