IM TIRED OF ALL THESE HOMOPHOBE POSTS
Dec 11 2008, 8:21 AM EST | Post edited: Dec 11 2008, 8:21 AM EST
I get it. You either think homosexuality is gross or you think marriage between the same sex is wrong. First of all, you are entitled to your ignorant opinion, but you are not entitled to force your ideas upon others. So gay people gross you out. Whatever. Republicans gross me out. I don't go around bashing them on their websites. I bash them on neutral websites where debate is open.

Second of all, this is a democracy. I don't know if you love America like I do, but I happen to appreciate freedom of religion. Marriage is a religious tradition. You may practice the faith where marriage is between a man and a woman. That's okay with me. I'm straight myself. But if the state were to marry two men what difference does it make to you?

Are you scared that gays will overrun the world? Take over the nation? That's what white people feared when blacks were allowed a public education. Did blacks take over the world? No. Don't even try to make the point that our president is black, because most African Americans are still minorities struggling to make it where they want to make it. Besides gays and blacks, fat people and red heads... we're all people. Don't they practice that in you're religion? Equality? Kindness? Acceptance?

What insenses me is that the straight male seems to be continuously attacked. You've pigeonholed us into a corner where we're damned if we do and damned if we don't. The agenda has now gone after the black society with rage, which is wrong. I'd love to see you go protest in the inner city communities and shout your mantra at them and see how your hatred is taken. Right now it's seen as true "Heterophobia"
SHNOW: Stop Heterophobia Now.

Straight people are attacked by homosexuals everyday. If I were to walk into one of your bars I'd be heckled, hit on and made to feel rather uncomfortable......A straight male I used to work with went to a Lillith Fair concert and was attacked by a gang of dykes for being up front near the stage.....By shunning what you hate about society, you've become it.

The straight male is continuously mocked by Lesbians. They go out of their way to portray masculinity while denouncing their femininity. Yet they want to be accepted. Maybe on Halloween, ok? Do you find this valuable?

I looked at your 4 pitiful references. They all have to do with the same thing. Gays picketing and rallying against mormon involvment in h8. Not one person was stabbed, not one head was cut off , nobody was dismembered and stuffed in trashbags and not one mother was left empty and heartbroken.
Cite one, just one reference to someone being killed because they are straight.
How dare you make a comparison. It is sickening.

A homosexual man murders a straight man after raping him... the hetero simply resisted the sexual advances...

There's your "one, just one reference"...

Is it still sickening?

How 'bout Mary Stachowicz... a Christian that was beaten, stabbed, and murdered by a homosexual. The murderer was spared the death sentence because he was gay... and she was Christian... I guess that's "fair and equal", isn't it?

Ha, you’re wrong, if you read the story entirely it will tall you,

Even today, Aman noted, Matthew Shepard's name is synonymous with the campaign to enact hate-crime laws. Supporters of the "Matthew Shepard Local Law Enforcement Hate Crimes Prevention Act of 2007" want to add "sexual orientation" to the list of groups granted special protection from so-called hate crimes, he said. Only the story isn't accurate. Money for drugs, not 'homophobia,' was the motive for Matthew Shepard's murder, Aman noted. The ABC report said Aaron McKinney, sentenced in 1999 to two life sentences for Shepard's murder, was on a sleepless week-long methamphetamine binge and in search of money for more drugs when he and his accomplice, Russell Henderson, met Shepard at a bar.

Although I see what you are saying you need to know that this has nothing to do with gay people marrying, you need to know that gay people are just people to, and murder is murder and a rapist is a rapist.

I didn't even bring religion into it. Please, take over the world......You can have it.
The first gay couple to genetically produce a child gets my vote as a family. Until then, there's really no need for marriage. No, gay people don't gross me out.......Just the attitude does. Nobody is entitled to force their ideas upon others.......Not even by marching in a parade. Or protesting Prop. 8. When gays can act in a civil manner--sit down in a forum and discuss things like others--You'll get my undivided attention.

It's seen as the inability to function in society. You've chosen the life that you lead. A rectum is used to get rid of waste in your body and you're busy cramming something back into it. But you're trying to tell the straight society that we're twisted?
Yeah, right!

You are correct, however had you been paying attention to the actual thread, you would have noticed that you said, "straight people are not attacked gay people are." To which, I said, "Please cite references of the last time a homosexual was attacked." Which, you were unable to do. Then, Jitt3rbug chimed in with his list and challenged me to find "one, just one" time when a hetero was attacked for being straight. I provided 2 instances that I could find within the first page of a Google.com search. Of course it has nothing to do with gay marriage... neither does the ratio of gay to straight people who get attacked, but you brought it up. :)

Matthew Wayne Shepard was a gay American student at the University of Wyoming who was murdered near Laramie. He was attacked on the night of October 6–October 7, 1998 and died at Poudre Valley Hospital in Fort Collins, Colorado, on October 12, from severe head injuries. His murder brought national as well as international attention to the issue of hate crime legislation at the state and federal levels.

Russell Arthur Henderson pleaded guilty to felony murder and kidnapping, allowing him to avoid the death penalty. Aaron James McKinney was convicted of felony murder and kidnapping. Henderson is currently serving two consecutive life sentences and McKinney is serving the same but without the possibility of parole.

Shortly after midnight on October 7, 1998, 21-year-old Shepard met McKinney and Henderson in a bar. McKinney and Henderson offered Shepard a ride in their car. Subsequently, Shepard was robbed, pistol whipped, tortured, tied to a fence in a remote, rural area, and left to die. McKinney and Henderson also found out his address and intended to rob his home. Still tied to the fence, Shepard was discovered eighteen hours later by Aaron Kreifels, who at first thought that Shepard was a scarecrow. At the time of discovery, Shepard was still alive, but in a coma.

Shepard suffered a fracture from the back of his head to the front of his right ear. He had severe brain stem damage, which affected his body's ability to regulate heart rate, body temperature and other vital signs. There were also about a dozen small lacerations around his head, face and neck. His injuries were deemed too severe for doctors to operate. Shepard never regained consciousness and remained on full life support. As he lay in intensive care, candlelight vigils were held by the people of Laramie.

He was pronounced dead at 12:53 A.M. on October 12, 1998 at Poudre Valley Hospital in Fort Collins Police arrested McKinney and Henderson shortly thereafter, finding the bloody gun as well as the victim's shoes and wallet in their truck. The two men had attempted to get their girlfriends to provide alibis.

In court the defendants used varying rationales to defend their actions. They attempted to use the "gay panic defense", arguing that they were driven to temporary insanity by alleged sexual advances by Shepard. At another point they stated that they had only wanted to rob Shepard and never intended to kill him.

The prosecutor in the case charged that McKinney and Henderson pretended to be gay in order to gain Shepard's trust to rob him. During the trial, Chastity Pasley and Kristen Price (the pair's then-girlfriends) testified under oath that Henderson and McKinney both plotted beforehand to rob a gay man. McKinney and Henderson then went to the Fireside Lounge and selected Shepard as their target. McKinney alleged that Shepard asked them for a ride home. After befriending him, they took him to a remote area of Laramie where they robbed him, beat him severely (media reports often contained the graphic account of the pistol whipping and his smashed skull), and tied him to a fence with a rope from McKinney's truck. Shepard begged for his life. Both girlfriends also testified that neither McKinney nor Henderson were under the influence of drugs at the time. The beating was so severe that the only areas on Shepard's face that were not covered in blood were those where his tears had washed the blood stains away.

Henderson pleaded guilty on April 5, 1999, and agreed to testify against McKinney to avoid the death penalty; he received two consecutive life sentences. The jury in McKinney's trial found him guilty of felony murder. As it began to deliberate on the death penalty, Shepard's parents brokered a deal, resulting in McKinney receiving two consecutive life terms without the possibility of parole.

Henderson and McKinney were incarcerated in the Wyoming State Penitentiary in Rawlins but were transferred to other prisons due to overcrowding.

Well at least is can say I was not paying attention to your earlier Blog.
