No, not really.
I just find it very insensitive that the Black experience in America can get so trivialized.
So, Sen, let me ask you - would you as a Black gay man find the issue of gay marriage more compelling if it is compared to the Holocaust that Jews experienced?
Gays, just as the Jews, were singled out for being 'different'.
Gays, just as Jews, were / have been persecuted for having practices and beliefs that were / are not accepted by the 'norm'.
Gays, just as the Jews, had property vandalized because they are not part of the 'majority'.
Gays, just as the Jews, are subject to ridicule just for being who they are.
So do you think the gay marriage argument would have more support if we compared it to the Jewish experience seeing as that both groups have been persecuted in the same way?
