They need to grow up and get over it, homosexuals are a accepted part of society. I think they are just sulking in a loss of a part of their culture that allowed them to ass-holes to other people.

You should read up on the late Pat Robertson, then. He's a barrelful of laughs for this kind of shit.

I'm old enough to remember Kill a Queer for Christ T-shirts and bumper stickers.

During Anita Bryant's reign of terror, concentration camps for homos were openly discussed.

When first apprised of what was to be later called the AIDS crisis, Ronald Reagan exclaimed, "I'm supposed to consider this a problem?"


I also remember my first Gay Pride Parade in '79 in Chicago. 10 years after the Stonewall riots, 250,000 gays and their supporters could march from the 'gay area' to Lincoln Park for a rally. Cops had to sweep for bombs, but the parade went ahead just fine. To this day I remain impressed at the peaceful nature of the thing; 250,000 people could have burned the city to the ground to make a point, but the civil rights battle was fought at the ballot box and the courts instead.

82' a friend of mine had all the windows knocked out of his car, not too much later another friend was murdered in a gay bar by a drive-by shooter. ~88' and HIV facility I had volunteered at was arsoned, neighborhood committees fought the existence of the place at every city council meeting for over a year too. Bad enough to have queers around, but sick ones? OMFG !
 The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.

Really? I was a Christian once upon a time and I heard it plenty along with the famous,"God will punish us like he did with Sodom and Gomorah because of their perversion." Silly Christians.

I didn't grow up around the fundamentalist types. I'm assuming bc I've never lived in the Bible belt, which is where most of them are.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."

It's more the ones obsessing over gay sex. I would say if someone constantly has gay sex in mind, chances are they want to be a part of the action.

Bigotry is often taught, but is often rooted in fear of those who are different. Religion is just a convenient cover.
