That is kinda pathetic, isn't it?
Kinda pathetic not to realise that race is an "immutable characteristic" but homosexuality is not - it's a behaviour.

That's why the USSC rejected the notion that homosexuals should be a protected group.

Is Tristan really that ignorant?

Does he really not see the similarities between sexual orientations that are sterile, physiologically aberrant, currently illegal in many countries, etc.

The racial segregation brought to one race in this country pales in comparison to nearly the entire planet having sodomy laws up until recently. Not to mention bestiality and same sex activity share the term sodomy from Biblical times.

If it's pathetic for me to find he racial comparison a bit weak, the objections by the other side to being considered similar to other deviant actual sexual urges is delusional.

Trissie babe also conveniently overlooks the fact that none other than Martin Luther King, the Reverend King, opposed homosexual marriage, and his daughter Bernice King actively campaigns against it and in defence of traditional marriage

"Bernice says herself that she knows deep within that her father did not march and did not take a bullet for same-sex marriage," said Alveda King. "I don't believe that people should be penalized for their affections, but we need to be clear on the purpose of sexuality and marriage, that purpose being procreation."

Even some civil rights leaders, such as Jesse Jackson, have tried to put distance between the black and gay struggles. And black ministers, among them the Rev. Bernice King, Martin Luther King Jr.'s daughter, have led protests to fight efforts to legalize same-sex marriage.

Some African-Americans also argue that gays and lesbians were never slaves or victims of a system designed to keep them in their place, and that while homosexuals have the option of keeping their sex lives private, few blacks can hide their race.

NOT TRUE. THOUGH HIS DAUGHTER DOES CAMPAIGN AGAINST EQUAL RIGHTS FOR GAYS (ON ALL ISSUES), MRS. KING HAS STATED MANY TIMES THAT HER HUSBAND WAS IN FAVOR OF GAYS HAVING EQUALITY IN ALL ARENAS OF SOCIETY.

IF YOU'RE GOING TO MAKE STATEMENTS LIKE THAT,YOU SHOULD GO TO ANOTHER BOARD WHEN PEOPLE DON'T KNOW THAT YOU'RE LYING AND DISTORTING FACTS .... AGAIN.
"Bernice says herself that she knows deep within that her father did not march and did not take a bullet for same-sex marriage," said Alveda King. "I don't believe that people should be penalized for their affections, but we need to be clear on the purpose of sexuality and marriage, that purpose being procreation."

AND YET HIS WIFE STATES THE OPPOSITE. PERHAPS BERNICE - WHO WAS, WHAT?, 4? 5? WHEN HER FATHER WAS KILLED? - KNOWS MORE ABOUT MLK'S BELIEFS THAN HIS WIFE.

Some African-Americans also argue that gays and lesbians were never slaves or victims of a system designed to keep them in their place, and that while homosexuals have the option of keeping their sex lives private, few blacks can hide their race.

SOUNDS LIKE THOSE BLACK PEOPLE DON'T KNOW THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN SLAVERY AND THE CIVIL RIGHTS MOVEMENT. RATHER THAN FIGHTING GAY MARRIAGE, THEY SHOULD BE TAKING AN ELEMENTARY AMERICAN HISTORY CLASS.

NOT BEING ALLOWED TO MARRY IS, BE DEFINITION, A SYSTEM DESIGNED TO KEEP GAYS "IN THEIR PLACE."
THESE FACTS HAVE BEEN POINTED OUT TO YOU MYRIAD TIMES IN THE PAST YEARS ... WHY DO YOU CONTINUE TO POST THEM WHEN YOU KNOW THEY'RE NOT TRUE?
