Whatever happened to that politically correct, cool, suave, debonair habit that was all the rage among college students, profs, teachers, Hollywood actors, big business and just about everyone purporting to have "intellect"?
In a nutshell, some scientists at the National Institutes of Health got together in the '60s, '70s and later and did some pioneering studies that proved beyond the shadow of a doubt that this cool habit could kill you.
Today, they're at it again. Only it isn't smoking. That's a dead issue, thanks to science and lawyers.
The activists then were Big Tobacco, supported by Hollywood, the advertising industry, the media and academe. Even politicians, like FDR, smoked and helped sell the image. But the activists were silenced by the nuclear option: lawsuits brought by the smokers, the victims themselves. Now "alternative" sexual lifestyles are all the rage. They, too, are killing people. And again, it's the "intellectual" cool, liberal, worldly, suave thing to do. The usual suspects are involved. All the big name colleges have special programs for promoting "alternative" sex. Businesses promote the Gay Olympics. Politicians like Barney Frank think they can foist alternative sex on people through their power positions. Hollywood uses its influence to turn the Marlboro Man into a spokesman for today's popular deadly activity, and major companies like Ford contribute funds from the shareholders' meager coffers to promote same-sex marriage. It's just like the bad old days of Big Tobacco, and the Grim Reaper is having a gay old time. Even school boards, like that in Montgomery County, Md., are urging young students to accept this deadly habit and plying them with the message that anyone who perceives himself/herself as being of a certain sexual orientation is in fact stuck with that orientation and cannot escape. That's tantamount to a group of educators telling smokers that they were born to smoke, can't quit and shouldn't even try. Of course, the promulgation of knowledge and data concerning the link between alternative sex and disease is hampered by the bullying tactics of the elite. Thus, only a few facts are known at all to some of the public (such as the results of a study in Scandinavia showing that men in same-sex marriages die 24 years earlier than their counterparts in the general population), and these facts aren't mainstream, thanks to the media blackout on this issue and the muzzling of opponents under color of law. And that, in turn, is thanks to the activists. So what will turn this movement around? Again, as in the case of smoking, I believe it will be the victims themselves. As soon as they smell the money. After all, the biggest losers aren't the Christian right or grass-roots Americans, who have voted overwhelmingly against "alternative" definitions of marriage. The biggest losers are those who gaily fling themselves into the arms of the deadly beast that devours them whole. Note the remarkable parallels with the smoking craze: In both cases, the promoters of the respective dangerous habits had been or are withholding evidence that undoubtedly would have led people not to indulge or to quit. Today, public elementary and secondary schools are doing just that, and in addition, some are teaching, as part of "sex education," methods for carrying out harmful sexual perversions, including "fisting." Once enough of the victims have seen how they have been duped by the universities, politicians, media, business (deep pockets), Hollywood, politicians and, yes, the gay agenda itself, to throw away their health and life expectancy, they will come out swinging, marching boldly behind their lawyers. The reverse "coming out" of Michael Glatze is the first major chink in the ramparts of Big Sodomy. More major players will be announcing themselves in time, demonstrating the fallacy of "once gay always gay," the sandy foundation on which the gay agenda is premised. And once science does its work, they will "win." The way the smokers "won." Hopefully Americans aren't as slow this time to accept the findings, as we were when all we did was smoke. If you have a friend or relative who has been persuaded by the media, big business, politicians, university programs, including courses of study, or any person or group to try this deadly lifestyle, and especially if your friend or relative is already suffering from a serious disease contracted as a result of it, talk to him or her at the first opportunity about the very real possibility of starting a class-action lawsuit against the group or groups that persuaded them to enter into the activity that did them in. If you happen to be in a care-giving profession, that is a shoe in the door. When it comes to trend setting, money is the root of all motivation. Let's make judicious – or shall I say judicial – use of it.
If it is possible to go after a diocese because a priest engaged in sexual misbehavior, why couldn’t one go after a diocese because that misbehavior led a victim to act out gay behavior up to their illness and eventual death?
For example, why couldn’t the employer of Rock Hudson (or his estate) be sued for negligently turning a blind eye to sexual predation leading to the infection of the preyed upon?
Why couldn’t my United Methodist denomination be sued for it’s bishop turning a negligent, blind eye to the sexual predation that accompanies gathering those with histories of same and turning them loose amidst potential prey?
“the results of a study in Scandinavia showing that men in same-sex marriages die 24 years earlier than their counterparts in the general population”
I’ve always been amazed at how the liberal media assists the homosexuals in hiding the sickening facts about their ‘lifestyle’. Thankfully the tide is turning and more and more people are standing up to these freaks.
Yeah, that second hand smoke.
This only proves that the global warming nuts will win.
It’s a travesty on “Big Government”, “Big Tobacco”, etc.
Oh my! That image within a post of “Big Sodomy” should bring back all of the laws of our past.
Leftist Liberal moonbats can promote ass sex all they like, but one thing they can’t do, is prevent nature from developing ways to correct abominations that defy her intended design, and her ability to eventually correct abominations, one way or another. If aids didn’t do the job and correct behavior, butt rot, dick cancer or some other poop chute violator’s disease will eventually be successful
Don't confuse illegal acts with legal ones. Most of the things you mention are ALREADY illegal and can be prosecuted as such.
Granted, you can sue anybody you want for anything you want. The question is whether the suit will succeed, and produce the result you want.
The approach this article suggests, smacks of the "hate crime" nonsense, in which an already illegal activity (say, killing somebody) is made somehow "more" illegal because it was done with "Thought Crime" too. Sorry, won't wash. Any argument that talking about homosexual activity should be illegal because the activity is dangerous is just doomed.
If the particular activity is illegal, it can be prosecuted as such. Advocating legal-but-dangerous activities is legal, and should remain so, just as advocating sky-jumping and other dangerous activities is legal. For that matter, advocating illegal activities is generally considered protected speech under the First Amendment. I guarantee you that you don't want the Government deciding that you can be sued for talking about an action just because the action is illegal -- that's one of the marks of tyranny, FRiend.
Yes, their lifespan, for male homosexuals, is 39 for those with AIDS and 41 for those NOT with AIDS. I had one person challenge my statistics because the every-day newspaper obituaries do NOT list cause of death. But these statistics came from their OWN HOMOSEXUAL MAGAZINES where they trumpeted the sadness of their colleagues’ deaths and denounced our government’s dragging its feet in finding a cure.
These facts were THEIRS, not mine. So, smokers live another 30 or more years. Now, whose lifestyle is a disgrace?
I’m sympathetic to the writer’s point, but politically he doesn’t know what he’s talking about.
On what theory? Cigarettes were actionable because of products liability. Sexuality is not usually a product.
See post #21. Help me make this into a theory. I’ve got gobs of cash, and you’ll get $350 per hour during the brainstorming, and a 50% cut of the take with a guaranteed minimum.
I want you to help me get there.
How do we do it, counselor?
Just find a plaintiff.
Love it. Fight vermin with greedy vermin. Play on greed to silence them.
Absolutely love it.
Silly me. Thought that was referring to a Chinese fortress.
What if the bishop encouraged an atmosphere “welcoming” to unrepentant predatory gays?
If he was authorized by the denomination to do that and someone was injured as a result, then both the Bishop and the denomination could be held liable.
But first you need to find an injured party.
I figured the image would not last, but I had to give it a shot. LOL
Physical injury better than psych injury?
God told Satan, this is your Earth, Please God help us!
