I don't think that the Democrats deserve as much blame as they get. Many people of all political beliefs think that gay and lesbian people deserve to have their constitutional rights protected. It's Republicans who twist the issue so it is unrecognizable. The Republicans perpetuate mindless stereotypes.

It's the same with the assault weapons ban. Who in their right mind would be in favor of private ownership of assault weapons? Certainly not the police! This should be a non-partisan no-brainer. Again, the Republicans twist the issue, making it sound like "a vote against assault weapons is a vote against deer rifles."

It's nonsense, and it's lies. Americans should know better. We're a well-educated, independent, creative-thinking group of people. We need to stop listening to the lies and spin.

In my opinion.
