No room for misquote there then. Yes, indeed. It was never about folks solemnly waiting for the State to endorse their lifestyles, it was always about using the power of Big Government to impose their lifestyle on third parties
It's always been my opinion that for all practical purposes LGBT (Lesbian-Gay-Bi-Transgender) people have arrived when they can be out to everyone about how they want to live their lives and have the same legal rights as everyone else (not be subject to harassment, have the ability to sign legal contracts together, assign partner benefits to their chosen partner, etc.).
But beyond that, as I have tried to explain to my gay friends, I personally think that it's just as morally wrong to force others to have to accept what you are doing is right regardless of their personal beliefs as it would be for them to try to prevent you from living your life in the way that you think is right for you.
I like the article Tammy Bruce did on the subject some time ago. http://frontpagemag.com/readArticle.aspx?ARTID=14020
Thanks for the link- I like Tammy’s writing and thinking.
