“Gimme Dat Christian Side Hug”

Apparently hugging the traditional chest-to-chest way is immoral and an invitation to sin. These “rough riders” would like to remind you that because they “aint no rabbis” they only hug their friends from the side.

Its an equal protection issue. We now have laws (hate crimes) that define sexuality as a specific class, alongside race and gender.

If you’ve defined sexulaity as something that requires protection, than that protection must extend in other areas.

I may not have all the details right, but the argument doesn’t have to go much farther than that. Every law, in any state, that blocks people from entering in to a marriage contract with one another is unconstitutional. Take all the opinion polls you want, its unconstitutional and I believe it will eventually be ruled as such.

Dan Savage presents these arguments better than most. It’s a human rights issue. Quite simply, everyone in this country have the same rights, regardless of race, gender, religion, class, or sexuality. Gay people have the right to have children, get married, join the military, or do ANY OTHER FUCKING THING that I have the right to do. It’s so blindingly simple. Rights have nothing to do with religious opinions or straight white males deciding what “rights” other people have. Rights have nothing to do with personal judgment. They are just there. They are rights, plain and simple, and they are not to be fucked with.

Freedom isn’t free, fuckers, it comes with SODOMY. Freedom also comes with a side of NOT OWNING OTHER HUMANS and DISALLOWING HUSBANDS TO RAPE THEIR WIVES and BLACK PEOPLE VOTING and WHEELCHAIR RAMPS and GAY CABLE CHANNELS and BLACK HOMOSEXUAL WOMEN ON YOUR GOLF COURSE. Get over it.

Well put. 

White Rabbits.  My new obsession.
