Awww, yeah!

“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.

madthoughts:

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.

“

On average, guns kill or wound 276 people every day in America. Of those shot, about 75 adults and nine children die.

That adds up to just over 100,000 victims of gun violence a year. The rate of firearm murders in the United States is about 16 times that in Australia and 26 times that in Britain.

I would also like to have something funny put on my gravestone.

It’s not funny it’s tragic.

Leonard Matlovich:

When I was in the military they gave me a medal for killing two men and a discharge for loving one.

glbtq:

Although considered by many to have been an unlikely spokesperson for gay and lesbian civil rights, Leonard Matlovich became one of the glbtq community’s most visible activists in the 1970s after he challenged the United States Air Force’s ban on gay and lesbian service members.

With full military honors and a twenty-one gun salute, Matlovich was interred in the Congressional Cemetery in Washington, D. C. He intended his grave to serve as a memorial for all gay and lesbian veterans. Hence, rather than recording his name, the headstone reads simply “A Gay Vietnam Veteran.”

If the Democrats wanted to, they could use Republican tactics and say, “Well, since both the Republicans and Hugo Chavez denounced the Nobel committee and Obama’s prize, clearly the Republicans are socialist and support facism and brutal dictators.”
