109. We are supposed to be
a nation of tolerance. The practice of exclusion and intolerance is preached by those who are in power. Several of the politicions now running for president preach a policy of intolerance.
Unacceptable.

I don't really care what your sexual preference is. That is an extremely personal thing. I have two nephews that are gay and what difference does it make? They are both human beings who have a mother that loves them very much. They are both successful in their respective professions (Air traffic control and a pharmacist) and are respected by the community.

It seems the only people who care about your sexual drive are the republicans who, it seems, have a whole lot of gay members in their political structure. These people will vote to deny any gay person the basic rights that everyone else has under the Constitution. That really sucks.

Hypocritical people or those who may have gay tendencies are the ones causing the problems. If you are confident in your sexuality, regardless if gay or straight, what the hell difference does it make if somebody else is different than you?

We men are just about all hypocritical. What man does not envision two women making love? Note to you that do: They are gay!

Leave them alone and concentrate on things that matter. Things like the Constitution and the fact that the US government in the past 7 years alone has killed well over 2 million people just for the hell of it. THAT is what should piss you off, not the fact that someone found love and peace.
