Kickass Conservative: “Back then...students...had a live and let live attitude about the situation.”

The battle lines are being drawn because homosexuals are no longer content to live and let live. They see this as a civil right issue on par with black civil rights, and they won’t be satisfied until all opposition is shouted down.

Oh, they MIGHT let us whisper, “homosexuality is a sin” in our churches, but they want us completely eliminated from the public sphere. Take DADT, for example. As soon as that’s eliminated, it will be used to quiet any opposing views in the military. Mandatory sensitivity training, penalties for hate speech, etc., will shortly follow.

What I see on the right is mostly reactionary. We are simply responding to an attack from the left. I would MUCH rather go back to live and let live, but that’s simply not possible. We either win this, or we’ll lose many rights (religion and speech for example) to the gay agenda.

Exactly right.

It’s the same thing as the RINO issue.

Time to take these stands. And not back down. Frankly I don’t care anymore if leftists are “offended”.

I care about telling them to get out of my face.
