Whatever their percentage, there will always be something wrong with them. Can you say “abnormal”?

The left has been engaged in “culture jamming”, where they continually assert an untruth, and/or present an idea as ubiquitous,

in order to bring about social acceptance and social change.

The left are big into criminalizing Christianity so they push the homo agenda.

We need an upstart underground media or info apparatus run by people infused by the Holy Spirit. People with tough hides immune to charges of “racism, homophobia, bigotry” and the biggee...”unloving intolerance” and wise to efforts that might be made to “co-opt” this network need to run this network. I know Freerepublic tries to help in this regard!

That's because the number of avowed homo characters or 'personalities' on the TeeVee is more like one in four, giving the impression that such behaviour is much more common (and much more acceptable) than it actually is.

Democrats and the urban media live in cities. In NYC one in four really is homosexual. From the perspective of concrete cliff dwellers: there are too many people in the world so abortion and homosexuality are needed to control the problem, there is too much concentrated pollution so the EPA must do more regulation, there are too many angry crazy people around so guns must be banned, the are too many ultra rich people buying new expensive stuff and it's no fair, the urban heat island effect causes the temperature to be much warmer than the countryside they fly over so global warming is personally real. If this was your environment 24/7 you might also come to many wrong conclusions about the world beyond city limits.

3% isn't what the report states (again, that's inflation). From the report:

According to the survey responses, 96.6 percent of adults ages 18 years and older identify as straight, 1.6 percent identified as gay or lesbian, and 0.7 percent identified as bisexual.

Presumably we can factor out the 0.7 percent bisexual since those that so self-identify would have no problem marrying an opposite sex spouse. So we're now looking at what percent of the 1.6% are actually interested in marriage as opposed to scoring political points. I seriously doubt if 20% of that population would fall into that category. So are we to believe that perhaps 0.1% of the population is driving the whole "gay marriage" agenda?

Clearly that's not plausible. So what's more likely happening is that a goodly percentage of those who aren't really interested in same-sex unions for themselves are exploiting a wedge issue for ulterior motive. Since the nuclear family is the basic building block of civilization we have our answer. Destroy the traditional family and the State can step in to replace it. So it's all about State control, which is why all of the various "rights" movements are just so much distraction from the larger agenda.

The fact is that all of the so-called "rights" movements are simply branch offices of the same Marxist ideology, just repackaged for brand-preference. No matter their original intent, they've long been co-opted. This is easily proven by asking a simple question: Name three things that different "rights" groups disagree on. You'll have trouble naming even one, because there aren't any.

HOMOSEXUAL, because there’s nothing GAY about it.

What is the matter with the “normal” 97%?

Normal is the new "N" word.

I had heard of a study done years ago where rats were provided with ample food and water, just allowed to breed away in the same space. In the study, as population density increased, the rats developed behaviour similar to urban humans, violence beyond normal levels, apparent ‘cults’ or gangs, homosexuality, and ultimately cannibalism.

ultimately cannibalism

Longtime food stampers eat double portions because they face total starvation when the EBT party ends. Will they be the ones with enough energy to stay off their neighbor's dinner table or will their extra marbling make them prime?
