Good point Lovespell!!! We should deny gays rights because they can HIDE IT to avoid offending the poor ignorant people around them. Lucky them!!
I know I'm going to be attacked for this, but of all people, I think that you as an AFRICAN AMERICAN should understand why gays need rights.
In my opinion, the way the country is treating gays is the same way they treated blacks not too long ago (and sometimes still treat blacks).
Pretending they are less than human, trying to deny them rights that they should be given as a human, and as a citizen in this country.
DO YOU THINK DENYING YOUR BLACKNESS IS AN ALTERNATIVE TO RECEIVING EQUAL RIGHTS AS A BLACK AMERICAN? Well, if we just pretend that you aren't black, then we don't have to give you any rights!
THAT IS EXACTLY THE WAY WE ARE TREATING THE GAY COMMUNITY.
There were plently of people that thought it was "disgusting" for a black person to marry a white person. Do you still think that is wrong?

second question -- for lovespell:
you never answered my other post. While I am straight and have been in a relationship for over 2 years, pretend I was in a loving SAME SEX relationship instead. Also pretend I'm ready to get married.
Please explain to me (A JEWISH AMERICAN) why I am not allowed to get married, and/or why YOU think I should be denied this right.
