Aww, are you upset because everyone is using logical arguments to squash any and all bigotry you spew out? Resorting to name-calling, now?

Exit is through the backdoor, troll. Don't let the door hit your face on the way out

Default Homosexuals have all the legal protections they need

Would these gay issues be in the news if gays were afforded the same rights as heterosexuals? (Not just marriage--in many states it is legal to fire gay people because of their sexuality). The reason the lifestyle you hate is even being discussed so much is because of legislated discrimination and the vocal backlash against it.

Do you realize that by opposing equal rights you are perpetuating the constant flow of all things gay to your fragile minds?
Homosexuals have all their rights protected.

Homosexuality is a perverse form of relationship.

Don't ask normal people to grant you special privleges and rights.

Marriage is between a man and a woman.

You want a civil union between a man and a man, write a contract and be done with it.

Leave children alone. Don't dare to try to adopt impressionable kids to immerse them in your perverse lifestyle. That is lower than low!

You are sick, seek professional and spiritual guidance to help you find your way. good luck!

Why all the nastiness? If you want to have a differing opinion that is your right, sadly it is also your right to spew this venom, but how can you be this nasty and claim someone else is "lower than low"?

Wow. Someone's living in the 1950s. Time-travel is real!

Gays are prohibited from writing contracts. Even if they did that and had their ceremonies then they still wouldn't get the handful of benefits that married couples get. There is a difference. And it is a shame that you have such a degrading attitude towards a group of people yet you are an artist??

Whether talking about marriage or voting you are talking about rights. The parallel works just fine.

Still not legal in many, many states.

You also didn't mention legalized job and housing discrimination.

You just blew a gasket and became... should I say it... a big drama queen.

Interesting, when you consider that in California the blacks turned out in very large numbers to speak up against "gay marriage", and I'm sure you can provide a link where you came down on them for that on this very forum, right?

Gays are prohibited from writing contracts? LOL!


That is a complete falsehood. Gays can write contracts just like eveyone else. Where I live there are two lesbians that have even adopted each other.



By the way it is easy to have a negative atitude against gays in the art world. Having been involved with galleries, Gays think art is a way to express their devient thoughts and most of their art is nothing more than hard core porn.

Blacks can be just as prejudiced and afraid of change as whites. Just because large numbers of them voted against same-sex marriage doesn't make it right.

The courts will decide on the issue of marriage, and that's the way it should be. All of this silly voting to ban same-sex couples from marrying is ultimately a waste of resources.
