As has also been done with your posts, I have to make some kind of choice. Did you not understand the article? Or are you attempting to be dishonestly misrepresent it?

There is no "they." This is not a news article. This is an EDITORIAL. This is a (very well done) piece by ONE MAN.

You seem to think that an editorial op/ed piece is the same thing as a news story. Either that - or you do know and simply dishonestly represent it in your posts in order to further fan the flames of bigotry.

(And, for what it's worth, I think the majority of people cruisiing mens restrooms ARE closeted hypocrites looking for love on the sly. Your average gay man does not have to resort to such unsavory - and illegal - practices to find sexual partners. The reason a person would engage in such behaviour is that he's afraid to be "found out" as gay...which would happen in a gay bar or at a gay social event. Are any of these men just gay? Of course. Where ever there are large numbers of men, there will be gay men among them.)

Conservatism: Self-centered mean-spiritedness fueled by ignorance and misguided self-importance.

"I would gladly give in to socialized medicine, gun control, higher taxes, etc. if in return homosexuality would be made illegal (exception for cute girls making out) and vigorously enforced."
(ask yourself: is this the statement of a healthy, well-adjusted, normal guy?)
